Galatians 1:15-24

15But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace, 16To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: 17Neither did I go to Jerusalem to them who were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus. 18Then after three years I went to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.1 19But I saw no other of the apostles, except James the Lord’s brother. 20Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not. 21Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia; 22And was unknown by face to the churches of Judaea which were in Christ: 23But they had heard only, That he who persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed. 24And they glorified God in me.
