18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he could see again. And he rose up and was baptized.
19 When he had eaten, he was strengthened.For several days Saul was with the disciples in Damascus.
20 Immediately he preached in the synagogues that the Christ is the Son of God.
21 All who heard him were amazed and said, “Is not this he who killed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and came here with that intent, to bring them bound to the chief priests?”
22 Yet Saul increased all the more with power and confounded the Jews living in Damascus, proving that this One is the Christ.
23 After many days had passed, the Jews arranged to kill him.
24 But their scheme was known by Saul. They watched the gates day and night to kill him.
