13And Ananias answered, ‘Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how many evils he did to Thy saints in Jerusalem, 14and here he hath authority from the chief priests, to bind all those calling on Thy name.’ 15And the Lord said unto him, ‘Be going on, because a choice vessel to Me is this one, to bear My name before nations and kings—the sons also of Israel; 16for I will shew him how many things it behoveth him for My name to suffer.’
