20  And immediately in the synagogues he was proclaiming Christ, that He is the Son of God.

20  From that time on, he preached in the Jewish synagogues concerning Jesus, that he is the Son of God.

21  And all those who heard were astounded, and were saying, "Is this not the one who destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and has come here for that purpose, so that he might take them having been bound, to the chief priests?"

21  And all that heard him were amazed, and said, Is not this he that in Jerusalem made havoc of them that called on this name? and he had come hither for this intent, that he might bring them bound before the chief priests.

22  But Saul all the more was growing strong, and was confounding the Jews who were dwelling in Damascus, proving that this [Jesus] is the Christ.

23  Now when many days were fulfilled, the Jews plotted to kill him.

23  And when many days were completed, the Jews took counsel as one, so that they might put him to death.

23  After he had been there many days, the Jews plotted against him to kill him.

24  But their plot became known to Saul. And they closely watched the [city] gates both day and night, in order that they might kill him.

24  But their treachery became known to Saul. Now they were also watching the gates, day and night, so that they might put him to death.

24  But their conspiracy was made known to Saul, how they watched the gates of the city day and night to kill him.

25  But the disciples, taking him by night, they let him down through the wall, lowering [him ]in a basket.

25  Then the disciples placed him in a basket and let him down over the wall during the night.
