6. In trembling and terror he said, "Lord! what wilt thou command me to do? and the Lord said to him, Arise and go into the city; and it shall be told thee what thou shalt do.

7. But the people who went with him stood in a daze, hearing the voice, but seeing no one.

8. Saul got up from the ground, and with his eyes open, he saw no one. And they led him by the hand, and brought him to Damascus.

9. And for three days he did not see, nor did he eat, nor drank.

10. In Damascus there was a certain disciple named Ananias; and the Lord said to him in a vision, "Ananias! He said, "I, Lord."

11. And the Lord said to him, "Get up and go into the street, which is called the Straight Street, and ask in the house of Judah for a Tarsus named Saul; he is now praying,

12. and he saw in a vision a man named Ananias, coming to him and laying his hand on him so that he might see.

13. Ananias answered, "Lord! I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to Thy saints in Jerusalem;

14. and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.

15. But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is my chosen vessel to declare my name before the nations and kings and the children of Israel."

16. And I will show him how much he must suffer for My name's sake.

17. Ananias went and entered the house, and laying his hands on him, said, "Brother Saul! The Lord Jesus, who appeared to you in the way you walked, sent me so that you might receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.

18. And immediately it was as if scales fell from his eyes, and suddenly he regained his sight; And he arose, and was baptized;

19. And having eaten, he was strengthened. And Saul was with the disciples a few days in Damascus.
