*
But Anani '
as answered , "
Lord ,
I have heard from many about this man ,
how much evil he has done to thy saints at Jerusalem ;
*
and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call upon thy name ."
*
But the Lord said to him , "
Go ,
for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel ;
*
for I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name ."
*
So Anani '
as departed and entered the house .
And laying his hands on him he said , "
Brother Saul ,
the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came ,
has sent me that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit ."
*
And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes and he regained his sight .
Then he rose and was baptized ,
*
and took food and was strengthened .
For several days he was with the disciples at Damascus .
*
And in the synagogues immediately he proclaimed Jesus ,
saying , "
He is the Son of God ."
