I did not go up to Jerusalem to those who had become apostles before me; instead I went to Arabia and came back to Damascus.

Afterward, I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

Then after 14 years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along also.

I went up according to a revelation and presented to them the gospel I preach among the Gentiles—but privately to those recognized as leaders—so that I might not be running, or have run the race, in vain.
