5 The First Reading Acts 26:921 Paul said King Agrippa, Indeed, I myself was convinced I ought do many things against name of Jesus of Nazareth. And is what I did in Jerusalem; with authority received from chief priests, I not only locked up many of saints in prison, but I also cast my vote against m when y were being condemned death. By punishing m often in all synagogues I tried force m blaspheme; since I was so furiously enraged at m, I pursued m even foreign cities. With this in mind, I was traveling Damascus with authority commission of chief priests, when at midday along road, your Excellency, I saw a light from heaven, brighter than sun, shining around me my companions. When we had all fallen ground, I heard a voice saying me in Hebrew language, Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It hurts you kick against goads. I asked, Who are you, Lord? The Lord answered, I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. But get up st on your feet; for I have appeared you for this purpose, appoint you serve testify things in which you have seen me those in which I will appear you. I will rescue you from your people from Gentiles whom I am sending you open ir eyes so y may turn from darkness light from power of Satan God, so y may receive forgiveness of sins a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me. After, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient heavenly vision, but declared first those in Damascus, n in Jerusalem throughout countryside of Judea, also Gentiles, y should repent turn God do deeds consistent with repentance.

You have heard, no doubt, of my earlier life in Judaism. I was violently persecuting church of God was trying destroy it. I advanced in Judaism beyond many among my people of same age, for I was far more zealous for traditions of my ancesrs. But when God, who had set me apart before I was born called me through his, was pleased reveal his Son me, so I might proclaim him among Gentiles, I did not confer with any human being, nor did I go up Jerusalem those who were already apostles before me, but I went away at once in Arabia, afterwards I returned Damascus. Then after three years I did go up Jerusalem visit Cephas stayed with him fifteen days; but I did not see any or apostle except James Lord s bror. In what I am writing you, before God, I do not lie!
