3 And as he journeyed, he came near Dammesek (Damascus) [silent is the sackcloth weaver]: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Sha’ul [desired], Sha’ul [desired], why persecute youi me?
5 And he said, Who are youi, Lord - Kurios? And the Lord - Kurios said, I am Yeshua [God is Salvation] whom youi persecute: [it is] hard for youi to kick against the pricks.
6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord - Kurios, what will youi have me to do? And the Lord - Kurios [said] unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told youi what youi must do.
7 And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.
8 And Sha’ul [desired] arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought [him] into Dammesek (Damascus) [silent is the sackcloth weaver].
9 And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.
