18 Then after three years (B)I went up to Jerusalem to see [a]Peter, and remained with him fifteen days. 19 But (C)I saw none of the other apostles except (D)James, the Lord’s brother. 20 (Now concerning the things which I write to you, indeed, before God, I do not lie.)

18 then, after three years I went up to Jerusalem to enquire about Peter, and remained with him fifteen days,

19 and other of the apostles I did not see, except James, the brother of the Lord.

20 And the things that I write to you, lo, before God -- I lie not;

21 then I came to the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,

22 and was unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea, that [are] in Christ,

24 and they were glorifying God in me.
