Galatians 1:15-20

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁵ But when God, who had set me apart even from my mother’s womb and ^(A)called me through His grace, was pleased ¹⁶ to reveal His Son in me so that I might ^(B)preach Him among the Gentiles, ^(C)I did not immediately consult with ^[a](D)flesh and blood, ^17 (E)nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went away to Arabia, and returned once more to ^(F)Damascus.

¹⁸ Then ^(G)three years later I went up ^(H)to Jerusalem to ^[b]become acquainted with ^(I)Cephas, and stayed with him fifteen days. ¹⁹ But I did not see any other of the apostles except ^[c](J)James, the Lord’s brother. ²⁰ (Now in what I am writing to you, ^[d]I assure you ^(K)before God that I am not lying.)
