1So Saul was out here threatening and ready to throw down on the Lord's crew, rolling up to the high priest, no cap.

2He was like, "Yo, can I get some letters to the synagogues in Damascus? If I find any of these peeps, I'm bringing them back to Jerusalem, periodt."

3While he was on his way, he got close to Damascus, and boom, a light from heaven popped off around him.

4He hit the ground hard and heard a voice saying, "Saul, Saul, why you gotta come at me like that?"

5He was like, "Who are you, Lord?" And the Lord replied, "It's Jesus, the one you're coming for; stop kicking against the goads, fam."

6Shook and amazed, he asked, "Lord, what do you want me to do?" And the Lord said, "Get up, head into the city, and you'll find out what to do next."

7The guys traveling with him were just standing there, totally speechless, hearing a voice but seeing nobody.

8Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes, he couldn't see anyone; they had to guide him into Damascus.

9He was blind for three days, and he didn't eat or drink anything, just vibing in the dark.

10In Damascus, there was this disciple named Ananias, and the Lord hit him up in a vision, saying, "Ananias." He replied, "Yo, I'm here, Lord."

11And the Lord was like, "Get up, hit the street called Straight, and ask Judas about this dude named Saul from Tarsus, ‘cause he’s out here praying, no cap."

12"He’s seen a vision of a guy named Ananias rolling in, laying hands on him so he can get his sight back. Vibes."

13Ananias was like, "Yo, Lord, I’ve heard a lot about this dude and all the savage stuff he’s done to your peeps in Jerusalem."

14"And he’s got mad authority from the chief priests to lock up anyone calling on your name, fr."

15But the Lord was like, "Nah, just go: he’s my chosen one to rep my name to the Gentiles, kings, and the kids of Israel."

16"I’m about to show him the wild things he’s gonna go through for my name, periodt."

17Ananias bounced and went to the crib; he laid hands on him and said, "Yo, Brother Saul, Jesus who showed up on your way sent me so you can get your sight back and be lit with the Holy Ghost."

18Right then, it was like scales fell from his eyes, and he could see again, got up, and got baptized, no cap.

19After he ate some food, he was feeling strong. Saul chilled with the disciples in Damascus for a few days.

20And straight up, he started preaching Christ in the synagogues, saying he’s the Son of God, and that slaps.

21Everyone who heard him was shook, saying, "Ain't this the dude who was out here wrecking peeps calling on this name in Jerusalem? He came here to snatch them up for the chief priests, no cap?"

22But Saul was leveling up his strength, making the Jews in Damascus look sus, proving that he’s the real deal, fr.

23After a while, the Jews were plotting to take him out, straight up.

24But Saul caught wind of their plan, and they were lurking at the gates day and night, trying to catch him slipping.

25So, the disciples pulled a sneaky move at night and lowered him down the wall in a basket, lowkey genius.

26When Saul hit up Jerusalem, he tried to roll with the disciples, but they were all scared of him, thinking he was still sus.

27But Barnabas came through, brought him to the apostles, and told them how he’d seen the Lord on his way and preached hard at Damascus in Jesus' name.

28He was with them, vibing in and out of Jerusalem.

29He spoke with bold rizz in the name of the Lord Jesus, arguing with the Grecians, but they were plotting to take him out too.

30When the bros found out, they sent him down to Cesarea and shipped him off to Tarsus, periodt.

31The churches were chillin’ all over Judea, Galilee, and Samaria, getting their vibes up; they were lowkey growing, feeling the fear of the Lord and the comfort of the Holy Ghost, no cap.

32So, Peter was out here cruising through all the spots, and he hit up the saints chillin’ in Lydda.

33There he found this dude named Eneas, who’d been stuck in bed for eight years, dealing with some serious sick vibes.

34Peter was like, “Eneas, Jesus Christ got you! Get up and make your bed.” Dude straight up bounced up immediately.

35Everyone in Lydda and Saron saw him and was like, “Yo, we gotta turn to the Lord!”

36So, there was this disciple in Joppa named Tabitha, aka Dorcas, who was just out here doing good stuff and helping people, periodt.

37But then she got sick and passed away, and when they washed her up, they laid her in an upper room.

38Since Lydda was close to Joppa and the disciples heard Peter was in town, they sent two guys to him, asking him to come through ASAP.

39Peter got up and went with them. When he got there, they brought him to the upper room, and all the widows were crying, showing off the clothes Dorcas made while she was around.

40But Peter kicked everyone out, knelt down, and prayed; then he turned to the body and said, “Tabitha, get up.” She opened her eyes, saw Peter, and sat up like, “What’s good?”

41He reached out his hand, lifted her up, and when he called the saints and widows, he flexed her being alive.

42Word got around all Joppa; mad people started believing in the Lord.

43He ended up chilling in Joppa for a while with this dude Simon, who was a tanner.

1And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,

2And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.

3And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

4And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

5And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

6And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

7And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

8And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.

9And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.

10And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.

11And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,

12And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.

13Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:

14And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

15But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

16For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.

17And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

19And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.

20And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

21But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?

22But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.

23And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him:

24But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.

25Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket.

26And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple.

27But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

28And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem.

29And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.

30Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.

31Then had the churches rest throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.

32And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda.

33And there he found a certain man named Eneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy.

34And Peter said unto him, Eneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.

35And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord.

36Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.

37And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.

38And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.

39Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

40But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

41And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.

42And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.

43And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.
