18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, he saw again also presently, and having risen, was baptized,
19and having received nourishment, was strengthened, and Saul was with the disciples in Damascus certain days,
20and immediately in the synagogues he was preaching the Christ, that he is the Son of God.
21And all those hearing were amazed, and said, `Is not this he who laid waist in Jerusalem those calling on this name, and hither to this intent had come, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?`
22And Saul was still more strengthened, and he was confounding the Jews dwelling in Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
23And when many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel together to kill him,
24and their counsel against [him] was known to Saul; they were also watching the gates both day and night, that they may kill him,
