Deeds (Act) of Apostles 9:1-5

¹But Saul, yet a blower or a breather of menaces, and of beatings, or slaying(s), against the disciples of the Lord, came to the prince of (the) priests, (But Saul, still a breather of threats, and killings, against the disciples of the Lord, came to the High Priest,)

²and asked of (or from) him letters into Damascus, to the synagogues; that if he found any men or women of this life, he should lead them bound (back) to Jerusalem.

³And when he made his journey, it befelled, that he came nigh to Damascus. And suddenly a light from heaven shone about him;

⁴and he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, what pursuest thou me? (or Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?)

⁵And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou pursuest. It is hard to thee, to kick against the prick. (And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee, to kick against the prod.)
