him.

OET (OET-RV) On his journey as he approached Damascus, suddenly light from the sky flashed around him.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν & τῷ πορεύεσθαι

in & the_‹time› ˓to_be˒_going

Luke means implicitly that the high priest gave Saul the letters he asked for and that Saul then left Jerusalem to go to Damascus. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [as he was traveling to Damascus with letters that the high priest gave him]

Note 2 topic: writing-newevent

ἐγένετο

˱it˲_became

Luke uses the phrase it happened that to introduce a significant development in this story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for this purpose.

αὐτὸν περιήστραψεν φῶς ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐν Δέ τῷ πορεύεσθαι ἐγένετο αὐτόν ἐγγίζειν τῇ Δαμασκῷ ἐξαίφνης τέ αὐτόν περιήστραψεν φῶς ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ)

Alternate translation: [a light from heaven shone all around him]

ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

from the sky

This could mean: (1) heaven, where God lives or (2) the sky. The first meaning is preferable. Use that meaning if your language has a separate word for it.

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

9:1-19 The conversion of Saul of Tarsus on the Damascus road is of central importance to the narrative of Acts—Luke recounts the story three times (also 22:1-21; 26:1-29). Paul (Saul) also alludes to this experience several times in his letters (1 Cor 15:8-10; Gal 1:11-17; Phil 3:4-11; see 1 Tim 1:12-17). Saul’s conversion was his prophetic call and commission as an apostle (Acts 9:15; 22:15, 21; 26:15-18). No one is beyond the power of God to reach, redeem, and use for holy purposes—nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37). Paul was prepared through his training, upbringing, and experience to play a unique role in taking the gospel into the broader world as the “apostle to the Gentiles” (Rom 11:13; see 1 Cor 15:9; 2 Cor 12:11-12; Gal 1:1; Eph 3:8).
