Acts 9

¹And Saul yet breathing out threatnings and slaughter against the disciples of ye Lord, went vnto the hie Priest,

²And desired of him letters to Damascus to the Synagogues, that if he found any that were of that way (either men or women) hee might bring them bound vnto Hierusalem.

³Now as he iourneyed, it came to passe that as he was come neere to Damascus, suddenly there shined rounde about him a light from heauen.

⁴And hee fell to the earth, and heard a voyce, saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

⁵And he sayd, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord sayd, I am Iesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kicke against pricks.

⁶He then both trembling and astonied, sayd, Lord, what wilt thou that I doe? And the Lord sayd vnto him, Arise and goe into the citie, and it shall be tolde thee what thou shalt doe.

⁷The men also which iourneyed with him, stood amased, hearing his voyce, but seeing no man.

⁸And Saul arose from the ground, and opened his eyes, but sawe no man. Then led they him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus,

⁹Where he was three dayes without sight, and neither ate nor dranke.

¹⁰And there was a certaine disciple at Damascus named Ananias, and to him sayd the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he sayd, Beholde, I am here Lord.

¹¹Then the Lord sayd vnto him, Arise, and goe into the streete which is called Straight, and seeke in the house of Iudas after one called Saul of Tarsus: for beholde, he prayeth.

(And he sawe in a vision a man named Ananias comming in to him, and putting his hands on him, that he might receiue his sight.)
