Acts 9:19-22
Wycliffe Bible
19 And when he had taken meat, he was comforted. And he was by some days with the disciples, that were at Damascus.
20 And at once [And anon] he entered into the synagogues, and preached the Lord Jesus, for this is the Son of God.
21 And all men that heard him, wondered, and said, Whether this is not he that impugned in Jerusalem them that called to help this name? and hither he came for this thing [and hither for this thing he came], that he should lead them bound to the princes of priests?
22 But Saul much the more waxed strong, and confounded the Jews that dwelled at Damascus, and affirmed that this is Christ [affirming for this is Christ].

1599 Geneva Bible
19 And received meat, and was strengthened. So was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.
20 [a]And straightway he preached Christ in the Synagogues, that he was that Son of God.
21 So that all that heard him were amazed, and said, Is not this he, that made havoc of them which called on this Name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he should bring them bound unto the high Priests?
22 [b]But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, [c]confirming that this was that Christ.

19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.
20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. 21 But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests? 22 But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.
