Moffatt⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ But their plot came to the ears of Saul, and, although they kept watch on the gates day and night in order to make away with him, ²⁵ his disciples managed one night to let him down over the wall by lowering him in a basket. ²⁶ He got to Jerusalem and tried to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, unable to believe he was really a disciple. ²⁷ Barnabas, however, got hold of him and brought him to the apostles. To them he related how he had seen the Lord upon the road, how He had spoken to him, and how he had spoken freely in the name of Jesus at Damascus.
