ACT 9:10–18, engwebp
¹⁰Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias!” He said, “Behold, it’s me, Lord.”
¹¹The Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,
¹²and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.”
¹³But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Jerusalem.
¹⁴Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.”
¹⁵But the Lord said to him, “Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel.
¹⁶For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.”
¹⁷Ananias departed and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
¹⁸Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.
