<br>Acts 22:3-16<br><p class="p"><br><span data-number="3" data-sid="ACT 22:3" class="v">3</span> I am verily a man <span class="add">which am</span> a Jew, born in Tarsus, <span class="add">a city</span> in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, <span class="add">and</span> taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day. <br><span data-number="4" data-sid="ACT 22:4" class="v">4</span> And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women. <br><span data-number="5" data-sid="ACT 22:5" class="v">5</span> As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished. <br><span data-number="6" data-sid="ACT 22:6" class="v">6</span> And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. <br><span data-number="7" data-sid="ACT 22:7" class="v">7</span> And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, <span class="wj">Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?</span> <br><span data-number="8" data-sid="ACT 22:8" class="v">8</span> And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, <span class="wj">I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.</span> <br><span data-number="9" data-sid="ACT 22:9" class="v">9</span> And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me. <br><span data-number="10" data-sid="ACT 22:10" class="v">10</span> And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, <span class="wj">Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do.</span> <br><span data-number="11" data-sid="ACT 22:11" class="v">11</span> And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus. <br><span data-number="12" data-sid="ACT 22:12" class="v">12</span> And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt <span class="add">there</span>, <br><span data-number="13" data-sid="ACT 22:13" class="v">13</span> Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him. <br><span data-number="14" data-sid="ACT 22:14" class="v">14</span> And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth. <br><span data-number="15" data-sid="ACT 22:15" class="v">15</span> For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard. <br><span data-number="16" data-sid="ACT 22:16" class="v">16</span> And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. </p>
