WPNT(i)
11 So the Lord said to him: “Get up and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas inquire by name for Saul of Tarsus; because, you see, he is praying,
12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and placing a hand on him, so that he might recover his sight.”
13 But Ananias answered: “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how many evil things he has done to Your saints in Jerusalem.
14 Moreover here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who are calling on Your name.”
15 But the Lord said to him: “Get moving, because this man is a chosen vessel to me, to carry my name before nations and kings, also the children of Israel;
16 for I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.”
17 So Ananias went and entered the house, and placing his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me so that you may recover your sight and be filled by Holy Spirit.”
18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he recovered his sight forthwith; and getting up he was baptized,
19 and upon receiving food he was strengthened. So Saul was with the disciples in Damascus for a number of days.
20 Immediately he started proclaiming Jesus in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.
21 Well, all who heard him were astounded and started saying: “Isn’t this the one who tried to destroy, in Jerusalem, those who called on this name? Even here he had come with that purpose, that he might take them bound to the high priests.”
