18. And immediately there fell from his eyes, as it were scales, and he received his sight. And rising up, he was immersed.
19. And having received food, he was strengthened. And Sha’ul was with the taught ones at Damascus some days.
20. And immediately he proclaimed the Messiah in the congregations, that He is the Son of Elohim.
21. And all who heard were amazed, and said, “Is this not he who destroyed those calling on this Name in Yerushalayim, and has come here for this, to take them bound to the chief priests?”
22. But Sha’ul kept increasing in strength, and was confounding the Yehuḏim who dwelt in Damascus, proving that this is the Messiah.
23. And after many days had elapsed, the Yehuḏim plotted to kill him.
24. But their plot became known to Sha’ul. And they were watching the gates day and night, to kill him.
25. But taking him by night, the taught ones let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
