1 Now Saul, still breathing threats and beatings against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
1 Y SAULO, respirando aún amenazas y muerte contra los discípulos del Señor, vino al príncipe de los sacerdotes,
2 and he petitioned him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that, if he found any men or women belonging to this Way, he could lead them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
2 Y demandó de él letras para Damasco á las sinagogas, para que si hallase algunos hombres ó mujeres de esta secta, los trajese presos á Jerusalem.
3 And as he made the journey, it happened that he was approaching Damascus. And suddenly, a light from heaven shone around him.
3 Y yendo por el camino, aconteció que llegando cerca de Damasco, súbitamente le cercó un resplandor de luz del cielo;
4 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?”
4 Y cayendo en tierra, oyó una voz que le decía: Saulo, Saulo, ¿por qué me persigues?
5 And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he: “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goad.”
5 Y él dijo: ¿Quién eres, Señor? Y él dijo: Yo soy Jesús á quien tú persigues: dura cosa te es dar coces contra el aguijón.
6 And he, trembling and astonished, said, “Lord, what do you want me to do?”
6 El, temblando y temeroso, dijo: Señor, ¿qué quieres que haga? Y el Señor le dice: Levántate y entra en la ciudad, y se te dirá lo que te conviene hacer.
7 And the Lord said to him, “Rise up and go into the city, and there you will be told what you ought to do.” Now the men who were accompanying him were standing stupefied, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no one.
7 Y los hombres que iban con Saulo, se pararon atónitos, oyendo á la verdad la voz, mas no viendo á nadie.
8 Then Saul rose up from the ground. And upon opening his eyes, he saw nothing. So leading him by the hand, they brought him into Damascus.
8 Entonces Saulo se levantó de tierra, y abriendo los ojos, no veía á nadie: así que, llevándole por la mano, metiéronle en Damasco;
9 And in that place, he was without sight for three days, and he neither ate nor drank.
9 Donde estuvo tres días sin ver, y no comió, ni bebió.
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias!” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.”
10 Había entonces un discípulo en Damasco llamado Ananías, al cual el Señor dijo en visión: Ananías. Y él respondió: Heme aquí, Señor.
11 And the Lord said to him: “Rise up and go into the street that is called Straight, and seek, in the house of Judas, the one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying.”
11 Y el Señor le [dijo]: Levántate, y ve á la calle que se llama la Derecha, y busca en casa de Judas á uno llamado Saulo, de Tarso: porque he aquí, él ora;
12 (And Paul saw a man named Ananias entering and imposing hands upon him, so that he might receive his sight.)
12 Y ha visto en visión un varón llamado Ananías, que entra y le pone la mano encima, para que reciba la vista.
13 But Ananias responded: “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much harm he has done to your saints in Jerusalem.
13 Entonces Ananías respondió: Señor, he oído á muchos acerca de este hombre, cuántos males ha hecho á tus santos en Jerusalem:
14 And he has authority here from the leaders of the priests to bind all who invoke your name.”
14 Y aun aquí tiene facultad de los príncipes de los sacerdotes de prender á todos los que invocan tu nombre.
15 Then the Lord said to him: “Go, for this one is an instrument chosen by me to convey my name before nations and kings and the sons of Israel.
15 Y le dijo el Señor: Ve: porque instrumento escogido me es éste, para que lleve mi nombre en presencia de los Gentiles, y de reyes, y de los hijos de Israel:
16 For I will reveal to him how much he must suffer on behalf of my name.”
16 Porque yo le mostraré cuánto le sea menester que padezca por mi nombre.
17 And Ananias departed. And he entered the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, he who appeared to you on the way by which you arrived, sent me so that you would receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
17 Ananías entonces fué, y entró en la casa, y poniéndole las manos encima, dijo: Saulo hermano, el Señor Jesús, que te apareció en el camino por donde venías, me ha enviado para que recibas la vista y seas lleno de Espíritu Santo.
18 And immediately, it was as if scales had fallen from his eyes, and he received his sight. And rising up, he was baptized.
18 Y luego le cayeron de los ojos como escamas, y recibió al punto la vista: y levantándose, fué bautizado.
19 And when he had taken a meal, he was strengthened. Now he was with the disciples who were at Damascus for some days.
19 Y como comió, fué confortado. Y estuvo Saulo por algunos días con los discípulos que estaban en Damasco.
20 And he was continuously preaching Jesus in the synagogues: that he is the Son of God.
20 Y luego en las sinagogas predicaba á Cristo, [diciendo] que éste era el Hijo de Dios.
21 And all who heard him were astonished, and they said, “Is this not the one who, in Jerusalem, was fighting against those invoking this name, and who came here for this: so that he might lead them away to the leaders of the priests?”
21 Y todos los que le oían estaban atónitos, y decían: ¿No es éste el que asolaba en Jerusalem á los que invocaban este nombre, y á eso vino acá, para llevarlos presos á los príncipes de los sacerdotes?
22 But Saul was increasing to a greater extent in ability, and so he was confounding the Jews who lived at Damascus, by affirming that he is the Christ.
22 Empero Saulo mucho más se esforzaba, y confundía á los Judíos que moraban en Damasco, afirmando que éste es el Cristo.
23 And when many days were completed, the Jews took counsel as one, so that they might put him to death.
23 Y como pasaron muchos días, los Judíos hicieron entre sí consejo de matarle;
24 But their treachery became known to Saul. Now they were also watching the gates, day and night, so that they might put him to death.
24 Mas las asechanzas de ellos fueron entendidas de Saulo. Y ellos guardaban las puertas de día y de noche para matarle.
25 But the disciples, taking him away by night, sent him over the wall by letting him down in a basket.
25 Entonces los discípulos, tomándole de noche, le bajaron por el muro en una espuerta.
26 And when he had arrived in Jerusalem, he attempted to join himself to the disciples. And they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
26 Y como vino á Jerusalem, tentaba de juntarse con los discípulos; mas todos tenían miedo de él, no creyendo que era discípulo.
27 But Barnabas took him aside and led him to the Apostles. And he explained to them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him, and how, in Damascus, he had acted faithfully in the name of Jesus.
27 Entonces Bernabé, tomándole, lo trajo á los apóstoles, y contóles cómo había visto al Señor en el camino, y que le había hablado, y cómo en Damasco había hablado confiadamente en el nombre de Jesús.
28 And he was with them, entering and departing Jerusalem, and acting faithfully in the name of the Lord.
28 Y entraba y salía con ellos en Jerusalem;
29 He also was speaking with the Gentiles and disputing with the Greeks. But they were seeking to kill him.
29 Y hablaba confiadamente en el nombre del Señor: y disputaba con los Griegos; mas ellos procuraban matarle.
30 And when the brothers had realized this, they brought him to Caesarea and sent him away to Tarsus.
30 Lo cual, como los hermanos entendieron, le acompañaron hasta Cesarea, y le enviaron á Tarso.
31 Certainly, the Church had peace throughout all of Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and it was being built up, while walking in the fear of the Lord, and it was being filled with the consolation of the Holy Spirit.
31 Las iglesias entonces tenían paz por toda Judea y Galilea y Samaria, y eran edificadas, andando en el temor del Señor; y con consuelo del Espíritu Santo eran multiplicadas.
32 Then it happened that Peter, as he traveled around everywhere, came to the saints who were living at Lydda.
32 Y aconteció que Pedro, andándolos á todos, vino también á los santos que habitaban en Lydda.
33 But he found there a certain man, named Aeneas, who was a paralytic, who had lain in bed for eight years.
33 Y halló allí á uno que se llamaba Eneas, que hacía ocho años que estaba en cama, que era paralítico.
34 And Peter said to him: “Aeneas, the Lord Jesus Christ heals you. Rise up and arrange your bed.” And immediately he rose up.
34 Y le dijo Pedro: Eneas, Jesucristo te sana; levántate, y hazte tu cama. Y luego se levantó.
35 And all who were living in Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they were converted to the Lord.
35 Y viéronle todos los que habitaban en Lydda y en Sarona, los cuales se convirtieron al Señor.
36 Now in Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which in translation is called Dorcas. She was filled with the good works and almsgiving that she was accomplishing.
36 Entonces en Joppe había una discípula llamada Tabita, que si lo declaras, quiere decir Dorcas. Esta era llena de buenas obras y de limosnas que hacía.
37 And it happened that, in those days, she became ill and died. And when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.
37 Y aconteció en aquellos días que enfermando, murió; á la cual, después de lavada, pusieron en una sala.
38 Now since Lydda was close to Joppa, the disciples, upon hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, asking him: “Do not be slow in coming to us.”
38 Y como Lydda estaba cerca de Joppe, los discípulos, oyendo que Pedro estaba allí, le enviaron dos hombres, rogándole: No te detengas en venir hasta nosotros.
39 Then Peter, rising up, went with them. And when he had arrived, they led him to an upper room. And all the widows were standing around him, weeping and showing him the tunics and garments that Dorcas had made for them.
39 Pedro entonces levantándose, fué con ellos: y llegado que hubo, le llevaron á la sala, donde le rodearon todas las viudas, llorando y mostrando las túnicas y los vestidos que Dorcas hacía cuando estaba con ellas.
40 And when they had all been sent outside, Peter, kneeling down, prayed. And turning to the body, he said: “Tabitha, arise.” And she opened her eyes and, upon seeing Peter, sat up again.
40 Entonces echados fuera todos, Pedro puesto de rodillas, oró; y vuelto al cuerpo, dijo: Tabita, levántate. Y ella abrió los ojos, y viendo á Pedro, incorporóse.
41 And offering her his hand, he lifted her up. And when he had called in the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
41 Y él le dió la mano, y levantóla: entonces llamando á los santos y las viudas, la presentó viva.
42 Now this became known throughout all of Joppa. And many believed in the Lord.
42 Esto fué notorio por toda Joppe; y creyeron muchos en el Señor.
43 And it happened that he resided for many days in Joppa, with a certain Simon, a tanner.
43 Y aconteció que se quedó muchos días en Joppe en casa de un cierto Simón, curtidor.

What may be the reason that He neither drew any one of high authority and importance, nor caused such to be forthcoming for the purpose of instructing Paul?

… persecuting His disciples, he persecuted his own Lord, and sent Ananias to him that he might recover his sight, and be baptized--"preached," it is said, "Jesus in the synagogues at Damascus, with all freedom of speech, that this is the Son of God, the Christ." This is the mystery which he says was made known to him by revelation, that …

See, for example, how He Himself, the insulted one, discourses with us, both in the Old Testament, and in the New; in the one saying, "O my people, what have I done unto thee?" in the other, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me." And Paul too bids, "In meekness instruct those that oppose themselves." And Christ again, when His disciples …
