Acts 9:26-30
Lexham English Bible
Saul in Jerusalem
26 And when he[a] arrived in Jerusalem, he was attempting to associate with the disciples, and they were all afraid of him, because they[b] did not believe that he was a disciple. 27 But Barnabas took him and[c] brought him[d] to the apostles and related to them how he had seen the Lord on the road and that he had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken boldly in the name of Jesus. 28 And he was going in and going out among them in Jerusalem, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. 29 And he was speaking and debating with the Greek-speaking Jews,[e] but they were trying to do away with him. 30 And when[f] the brothers found out, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him away to Tarsus.
