9:1But Saul, still breathing threatening and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest Compare

9:4And he fell on the ground and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? Compare
9:5And he said, Who are You, Lord? And He said, I am Jesus, whom you persecute. Compare
9:6But rise up and enter into the city, and it will be told to you what you must do. Compare
9:7And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one. Compare
9:8And Saul rose from the ground; and though his eyes were open, he could see nothing. And they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. Compare
