Galatians 1:15-17

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

¹⁵ But when God— the One having separated me from my mother’s womb^[a] and having called me through His grace— was well-pleased ¹⁶ to reveal His Son in me in order that I might be announcing Him as good news among the Gentiles, I did not immediately communicate^[b] with flesh and blood, ¹⁷ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles before me, but I went away to Arabia and returned back to Damascus.
