Galatians 1:17-24
New American Standard Bible
18Then three years later I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas, and stayed with him for fifteen days.
19But I did not see another one of the apostles except James, the Lord’s brother.
20(Now in what I am writing to you, I assure you before God that I am not lying.)
21Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22I was still unknown by sight to the churches of Judea which are in Christ;
23but they only kept hearing, 'The man who once persecuted us is now preaching the faith which he once tried to destroy.'
24And they were glorifying God because of me.
King James Version
Chapter 1
17Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus. 18Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days. 19But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother. 20Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not. 21Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia; 22And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ: 23But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed. 24And they glorified God in me.Christian Standard Bible

18Then three years later I went to Jerusalem to get to know Peter, and I stayed with him for fifteen days.
19The only other apostle I met at that time was James, the Lord’s brother.
20I declare before God that what I am writing to you is not a lie.
21After that visit I went north into the provinces of Syria and Cilicia.
22And still the churches in Christ that are in Judea didn’t know me personally.
23All they knew was that people were saying, 'The one who used to persecute us is now preaching the very faith he tried to destroy!'
24And they praised God because of me.
