Coptic New Testament
1And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

2And asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

3And as he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew nigh to Damascus; and suddenly a light from heaven shined round about him.

4And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

6And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?

7And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the city, and there it shall be told thee what thou must do. Now the men who went in company with him, stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no man.

8And Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.

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

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

11And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the street that is called Stait, and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he prayeth.

12(And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.)

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

15And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.

17And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.

19And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.

20And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

21And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?

22But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.

24But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.

26And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

27But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.

28And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.

29He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.

31Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.

33And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.

36And in Joppe there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.

38And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppe, the disciples hearing that Peter was there, sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not be slack to come unto them.

39And Peter rising up, went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber. And all the widows stood about him weeping, and shewing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made them.
