10. In Damascus there was a believer named Ananias. The Lord called out to him in a vision. "Ananias!" he said. "Yes, Lord," he answered.
11. The Lord told him, "Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street. Ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul. He is praying.
12. In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias. The man has come and placed his hands on him. Now he will be able to see again."
13. "Lord," Ananias answered, "I've heard many reports about this man. They say he has done great harm to God's people in Jerusalem.
14. Now he has come here to arrest all those who worship you. The chief priests have given him authority to do this."
15. But the Lord said to Ananias, "Go! I have chosen this man to work for me. He will carry my name to those who aren't Jews and to their kings. He will bring my name to the people of Israel.
