12. and he has seen a vision. He saw a man named Ananias coming to him and putting his hands on him, so that he could see again.”
13. Ananias replied, “Lord, a lot of people have told me about the terrible things this man has done to your followers in Jerusalem.
14. Now the chief priests have given him the power to come here and arrest anyone who worships in your name.”
15. The Lord said to Ananias, “Go! I have chosen him to tell foreigners, kings, and the people of Israel about me.
16. I will show him how much he must suffer for worshipping in my name.”
17. Ananias left and went into the house where Saul was staying. Ananias placed his hands on him and said, “Saul, the Lord Jesus has sent me. He is the same one who appeared to you along the road. He wants you to be able to see and to be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
18. Suddenly something like fish scales fell from Saul's eyes, and he could see. He got up and was baptized.
19. Then he ate and felt much better.For several days Saul stayed with the Lord's followers in Damascus.
20. Soon he went to the Jewish meeting places and started telling people that Jesus is the Son of God.
