22 Kwaba kukhona ke womelelayo uSawule; wabetha adubadubeka amaYuda abemi eDamasko, ebonakalalisa ukuba lo nguye uKristu.*
23 Ke kaloku, kwakuzaliseka imihla eyaneleyo, abhunga amaYuda ukuba amsike.

26 Ke kaloku, akufika uSawule eYerusalem, wamana elinga ukuzibandakanya nabafundi; kodwa bamoyika bonke, bengakholwa ukuba ungumfundi.
27 UBharnabhas ke wamthabatha wamsa kubapostile,* wabacacisela ukuyibona kwakhe iNkosi endleleni, nokuba yathetha naye, nokuthetha kwakhe ngokungafihlisiyo eDamasko egameni likaYesu.
