Saul (later called Paul) is on the way to Damascus to arrest the followers of Jesus, when suddenly a bright light from the sky flashed around him.
"Who are you, Lord?" he asked.
"I am Jesus, whom you persecute," the voice said.
The men who were traveling with Saul had stopped, not saying a word; they heard the voice but could not see anyone.
Saul got up from the ground and opened his eyes, but he could not see a thing. So they took him by the hand and led him into Damascus.
