Acts 9:1-6

1. Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord's disciples. He went to the high priest
2. and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
3. As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.
4. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"
5. "Who are you, Lord?" Saul asked. "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting," he replied.
6. "Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do."

Job 42:1-6

1. Then Job replied to the LORD:
2. "I know that you can do all things; no plan of yours can be thwarted.
3. [You asked,] `Who is this that obscures my counsel without knowledge?' Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
4. ["You said,] `Listen now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you shall answer me.'
5. My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.
6. Therefore I despise myself and repent in dust and ashes."
