12 He has seen a vision in which a man named Ananias came and laid his hands on him so that he could see again.”
13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, many people have told me about this man. They told me about the many bad things he did to your holy people in Jerusalem.
14 Now he has come here to Damascus. The leading priests have given him the power to arrest all people who trust in you.”
15 But the Lord Jesus said to Ananias, “Go! I have chosen Saul for an important work. I want him to tell other nations, their rulers, and the people of Israel about me.
16 I will show him all that he must suffer for me.”
17 So Ananias left and went to the house of Judas. He laid his hands on Saul and said, “Saul, my brother, the Lord Jesus sent me. He is the one you saw on the road when you came here. He sent me so that you can see again and also be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
18 Immediately, something that looked like fish scales fell off Saul’s eyes. He was able to see! Then he got up and was baptized.
