Acts 9:11-21

Thomson(i) 11 Then the Lord said to him, Arise and go to the street, which is called Straight street, and inquire at the house of Judas for Saul of Tarsus; for behold he is praying, 12 and hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias, coming in and laying a hand on him that he may recover sight. 13 Upon which Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many concerning this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem; 14 and he is here with authority from the chief priests to bind all who invoke thy name. 15 And the Lord said to him, Go: for this person is a vessel which I have chosen to bear my name before nations and kings and the children of Israel. For 16 I will shew him what he must suffer for my name. 17 So Ananias went and entered the house, and having laid his hands on him, said, Brother Saul, The Lord, even Jesus who appeared to thee on the road as thou camest, hath sent me that thou mayst recover sight and be filled with a holy spirit. 18 Upon this there fell immediately from his eyes something like scales, and instantly he recovered sight. Then he arose and was baptized; 19 and having taken some food, he was strengthened. And Saul was some days with the brethren in Damascus, 20 and forthwith, in the synagogues proclaimed Jesus that he is the son of God. 21 At which all that heard were surprised, and said, Is not this he who made havoc of them at Jerusalem, who invoked that name, and came hither on purpose to carry such bound to the chief priests?
