Galatians 1:13-24

13For ye have heardG191 of my mannerG391 of lifeG391 in timeG4218 past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecutedG1377 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, and made havoc of it: 14and I advanced in the Jews’ religion beyond manyG4183 of mineG1473 own age among my countrymen, being moreG4183 exceedingly zealousG2207 for the traditionsG3862 of my fathers. 15But whenG3753 it was the good pleasureG2106 of God, who separatedG873 me, evenG2532 from my mother’sG3384 wombG2836, and calledG2564 me through his graceG5485, 16to revealG601 his SonG5207 in me, that I might preach him among the GentilesG1484; straightway I conferred not with fleshG4561 and bloodG129: 17neither wentG565 I up to JerusalemG2414 to them that were apostlesG652 before me: but I wentG565 awayG565 into ArabiaG688; and againG3825 I returnedG5290 unto DamascusG1154.

18Then after threeG5140 yearsG2094 I went up to JerusalemG2414 to visit CephasG2786, and tarried with him fifteenG1178 daysG2250. 19But otherG2087 of the apostlesG652 sawG3708 I none, save JamesG2385 the Lord’s brotherG80. 20NowG1161 touching the thingsG3739 which I writeG1125 unto you, beholdG2400, before GodG2316, I lieG5574 not. 21Then I cameG2064 into the regionsG2824 of SyriaG4947 and CiliciaG2791. 22And I wasG1510 still unknownG50 by faceG4383 unto the churchesG1577 of Judæa which wereG1510 in ChristG5547: 23but they onlyG3440 heardG191 say, He that onceG4218 persecutedG1377 us nowG1161 preacheth the faithG4102 of which he onceG4218 made havoc; 24and they glorifiedG1392 GodG2316 in me.
