Acts 9:18
Ananias Baptizes Saul
17So Ananias went to the house, and when he arrived, he placed his hands on Saul. “Brother Saul,” he said, “the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here, has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”18At that instant, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and his sight was restored. He got up and was baptized,19and after taking some food, he regained his strength. And he spent several days with the disciples in Damascus.
