But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the talmidim of the Lord, went to the cohen hagadol,

As he traveled, it happened that he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.

And he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"

The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.

Saul arose from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see anything. They led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.

Now there was a certain talmid at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Look, it's me, Lord."

The 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 look, he is praying,

But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your kadoshim at Jerusalem.

But 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.

Ananias 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 Ruach ha-Kodesh."

Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was immersed.

He took food and was strengthened. He stayed several days with the talmidim who were at Damascus.

All who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is not this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief cohanim."

But Saul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Messiah.

When Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join himself to the talmidim; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a talmid.

But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the emissaries, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Yeshua.

So the congregation throughout all Judea and Galil and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
