I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’

Context

4I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
5As also the high priest and all the council of the elders testify, from whom also I received letters to the brothers, and traveled to Damascus to bring them also who were there to Jerusalem in bonds to be punished.
6As I made my journey, and came close to Damascus, about noon, suddenly a great light shone around me from the sky.
7I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’
8I answered, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ He said to me, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you persecute.’
9“Those who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid, but they didn’t understand the voice of him who spoke to me.
10I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ The Lord said to me, ‘Arise, and go into Damascus. There you will be told about all things which are appointed for you to do.’
