18 After three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter and stayed with him for fifteen days.
19 I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord’s brother.
20 In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!
21 Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia
22 and was unknown by face to the churches of Judea which were in Christ.
23 They had heard only, “He who persecuted us in times past now preaches the faith which he once destroyed.”
24 And they glorified God because of me.
