Acts 22:6-11 ▼

6 About noon as I was approaching Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me.

7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?

8 ‘Who are You, Lord? I asked. ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting, He replied.

9 My companions saw the light, but they could not understand the voice of the One speaking to me.

10 Then I asked, ‘What should I do, Lord? ‘Get up and go into Damascus, He told me. ‘There you will be told all that you have been appointed to do.

11 Because the brilliance of the light had blinded me, my companions led me by the hand into Damascus.
