16. To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
17. Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them who were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
18. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
19. But other of the apostles saw I none, except James the Lord's brother.
20. Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.
21. Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
22. And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judea which were in Christ:
23. But they had heard only, That he who persecuted us in times past now preaches the faith which once he destroyed.
24. And they glorified God in me.
