Acts of the Apostles 26:13

In context

11Time and again, in one synagogue after another, I punished them and tried to force them to blaspheme; in my raging fury against them I hunted them even in foreign cities. 12On one such journey I was going to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests, 13and at midday, Your Majesty, I saw on the road a light from the sky, brighter than the sun, blazing around me and my companions. 14We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’ 15I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ The Lord answered, ‘I am Jesus, the one you are persecuting.
