Acts 9:5-6 is a scripture taken from the King James Bible that 'some' people love to use for various reasons. The scripture reads:

"And he said, 'Who art thou Lord?' and the Lord said, 'I am Jesus whom
thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
And he, trembling and astonished, said, 'Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?' And the Lord said unto him, 'Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.'"


The NIV Bible renders the scripture as:

"“Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”"


The King James redition came about when Erasmus apparently believed the extra 'parts' inserted in the scripture should be in the Textus Receptus. Virtually all modern translations do not use Erasmus version.
