< Acts 9 >

1 But Shaul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

2 and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Urishlim.

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

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

8 Shaul 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.

9 He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.

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

11 The Lord said to him, "Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Yehudah for one named Shaul, a man of Tarsus. For look, he is praying,

12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Khananya coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight."

13 But Khananya answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Urishlim.

15 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 people of Israyel.

17 Khananya departed, and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, "Brother Shaul, 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 Rukha d'Qudsha."
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲁϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛϭⲓ ⲁⲛⲁⲛⲓⲁⲥ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲏⲓ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲗⲉ ⲛⲉϥϭⲓϫ ⲉϫⲛ ⲥⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲁⲩⲗⲉ ⲡⲁⲥⲟⲛ ⲡϫⲟⲓⲥ ⲓⲥ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲛⲛⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲛⲧⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲉⲧⲕⲛⲏⲩ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲕⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲅⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲡⲛⲁ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ
18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.

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

20 Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed Yeshua, that he is the Son of God.

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

22 But Shaul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Meshikha.

23 When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,

24 but their plot became known to Shaul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,

25 but his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.

26 When Shaul had come to Urishlim, he tried to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

27 But Bar-Naba took him, and brought him to the apostles, 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.

29 He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.

31 So the church throughout all Yehuda and Galila and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Rukha d'Qudsha.

32 It happened, as Kipha went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lud.

33 There he found a certain man named Aniyas, who had been bedridden for eight years, because he was paralyzed.

36 Now there was at Yupi a certain disciple named Tabitha (which when translated, means Dorcas). This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.

37 It happened in those days that she fell sick, and died. When they had washed her, they placed her in an upper chamber.

38 As Lud was near Yupi, the disciples, hearing that Kipha was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to us.

39 Kipha got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.

40 Kipha put them all out, and kneeled down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes, and when she saw Kipha, she sat up.
