Acts 22:5 in Context — Acts 22
3 je suis Juif, né à Tarse en Cilicie; mais j’ai été élevé dans cette ville-ci, et instruit aux pieds de Gamaliel dans la connaissance exacte de la loi de nos pères, étant plein de zèle pour Dieu, comme vous l’êtes tous aujourd’hui.
4 J’ai persécuté à mort cette doctrine, liant et mettant en prison hommes et femmes.
5 Le souverain sacrificateur et tout le collège des anciens m’en sont témoins. J’ai même reçu d’eux des lettres pour les frères de Damas, où je me rendis afin d’amener liés à Jérusalem ceux qui se trouvaient là et de les faire punir.
6 Comme j’étais en chemin, et que j’approchais de Damas, tout à coup, vers midi, une grande lumière venant du ciel resplendit autour de moi.
7 Je tombai par terre, et j’entendis une voix qui me disait: Saul, Saul, pourquoi me persécutes-tu?
