Acts 9:1–6 · BSB
9:1 Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord. He approached the high priest
9:2 and requested letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any men or women belonging to the Way, he could bring them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
9:3 As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.
9:4 He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”
9:5 “Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” He replied.
9:6 “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”
