Acts 9:18-35

¹⁸And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.

¹⁹And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.

²⁰And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

²¹And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?

²²But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.

²³And when many days were passed, the Jews consulted together to kill him.

²⁴But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.

²⁵But the disciples taking him in the night, conveyed him away by the wall, letting him down in a basket.

²⁶And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

²⁷But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.

²⁸And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.

²⁹He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.

³⁰Which when the brethren had known, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.

³¹Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.

³²And it came to pass that Peter, as he passed through, visiting all, came to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.

³³And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.

³⁴And Peter said to him: Eneas, the Lord Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose.

³⁵And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him: who were converted to the Lord.
