13 “Lord,” Ananias answered, “I have heard from many people about this man, how much harm he has done to your saints in Jerusalem.m 14 And he has authority here from the chief priests to arrest all who call on your name.”n

15 But the Lord said to him, “Go, for this man is my chosen instrumento to take my name to Gentiles,p kings, and Israelites.q 16 I will show him how much he must suffer for my name.”r
