Deuteronomy 31:7 - 31:9

31:7 Then Moses summoned Joshua, and he said to him in the presence of all Israel, “Be strong and be courageous, for you will go with this people into the land that Yahweh swore to their ancestors to give to them, and you will give it to them as an inheritance.
31:8 Yahweh is the one going before you; he will be with you, and he will not leave you alone, and he will not forsake you; you shall not be afraid, and you shall not be discouraged.”
31:9 So Moses wrote this law, and he gave it to the priests, the descendants of Levi, the ones carrying the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, and to all the elders of Israel.
31:10 Then Moses commanded them, saying, “At the end of seven years, in the time of the year for canceling debts during the Feast of Booths,
31:11 when all Israel comes to appear before Yahweh their God at the place that he will choose, you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
31:12 Assemble the people, the men and the women and the little children and your aliens that are in your towns, so that they may hear and so that they may learn and they may revere Yahweh your God, and they shall diligently observe all the words of this law.
31:13 And then their children, who have not known, they too may hear, and they may learn to revere Yahweh their God all the days that you live on the land that you are crossing the Jordan to get there to take possession of it.”

Acts 21:37 - 22:2

21:37 Paul Permitted to Address the Crowd And as he was about to be brought into the barracks, Paul said to the military tribune, “Is it permitted for me to say something to you?” And he said, “Do you know Greek?
21:38 Then you are not the Egyptian who before these days raised a revolt and led out into the wilderness the four thousand men of the Assassins?”
21:39 But Paul said, “I am a Jewish man from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no unimportant city. Now I ask you, allow me to speak to the people.”
21:40 So when he permitted him, Paul, standing there on the steps, motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great silence, he addressed them in the Aramaic language, saying,
22:1 “Men—brothers and fathers—listen to my defense to you now!”
22:2 And when they heard that he was addressing them in the Aramaic language, they became even more silent. And he said,
22:3 “I am a Jewish man born in Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, educated according to the exactness of the law received from our fathers, being zealous for God, just as all of you are today.
22:4 I persecuted this Way to the death, tying up and delivering to prison both men and women,
22:5 as indeed the high priest and the whole council of elders can testify about me, from whom also I received letters to the brothers in Damascus, and was traveling there to lead away those who were there also tied up to Jerusalem so that they could be punished.
22:6 Paul Tells of His Conversion on the Damascus Road “And it happened that as I was traveling and approaching Damascus around noon, suddenly a very bright light from heaven flashed around me,
22:7 and I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’
22:8 And I answered, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And he said to me, ‘I am Jesus the Nazarene whom you are persecuting.’
22:9 (Now those who were with me saw the light but did not hear the voice of the one who was speaking to me.)
22:10 So I said, ‘What should I do, Lord?’ And the Lord said to me, ‘Get up and proceed to Damascus, and there it will be told to you about all the things that have been appointed for you to do.’
22:11 And as I could not see as a result of the brightness of that light, I arrived in Damascus led by the hand of those who were with me.
22:12 And a certain Ananias, a devout man according to the law, well spoken of by all the Jews who live there,
22:13 came to me and stood by me and said to me, ‘Brother Saul, regain your sight!’ And at that same time I looked up at him and saw him.
22:14 And he said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know his will, and to see the Righteous One and to hear a voice from his mouth,
22:15 because you will be a witness for him to all people of what you have seen and heard.
22:16 And now why are you delaying? Get up, be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name!’
22:17 “And it happened that when I returned to Jerusalem and I was praying in the temple courts, I was in a trance,
22:18 and saw him saying to me, ‘Hurry and depart quickly from Jerusalem, because they will not accept your testimony about me.’
22:19 And I said, ‘Lord, they themselves know that from synagogue to synagogue I was imprisoning and beating those who believed in you.
22:20 And when the blood of your witness Stephen was being shed, I myself also was standing near and was approving, and was guarding the cloaks of those who were killing him.’
22:21 And he said to me, ‘Go, because I will send you far away to the Gentiles!’”
