Acts 15:25-41

25it seemedG1380 goodG1380 unto us, having comeG1096 to oneG3661 accordG3661, to choose out menG435 and sendG3992 them unto you with our belovedG27 BarnabasG921 and PaulG3972, 26menG444 that have hazarded their livesG5590 for the nameG3686 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 27We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 and SilasG4609, who themselves alsoG2532 shall tellG518 you the sameG846 things by wordG3056 of mouth. 28For it seemedG1380 goodG1380 to the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, and to us, to lay upon you no greaterG4183 burdenG922 than these necessary thingsG3778: 29that ye abstainG568 from thingsG3739 sacrificed to idols, and from bloodG129, and from thingsG3739 strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, it shall be well with you. Fare ye well.

30So they, when they were dismissedG630, cameG2718 downG2718 to AntiochG490; and having gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they delivered the epistle. 31And when they had readG314 it, they rejoicedG5463 for the consolation. 32And JudasG2455 and SilasG4609, beingG1510 themselves alsoG2532 prophetsG4396, exhortedG3870 the brethren with manyG4183 wordsG3056, and confirmed them. 33And after they had spent some timeG5550 there, they were dismissedG630 in peaceG1515 from the brethren unto those that had sentG649 them forthG649. 341 35But PaulG3972 and BarnabasG921 tarried in AntiochG490, teachingG1321 and preaching the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, with manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.

36And after some daysG2250 PaulG3972 saidG3004 unto BarnabasG921, Let us returnG1994 nowG1161 and visitG1980 the brethren in every cityG4172 wherein we proclaimedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they fare. 37And BarnabasG921 was minded to takeG4838 with them JohnG2491 alsoG2532, who was calledG2564 MarkG3138. 38But PaulG3972 thought not good to takeG4838 with them him who withdrew from them from PamphyliaG3828, and went not with them to the workG2041. 39And there aroseG1096 a sharp contention, so that they parted asunder oneG240 from the other, and BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138 with him, and sailedG1602 awayG575 unto CyprusG2954: 40but PaulG3972 chose SilasG4609, and wentG1831 forthG1831, being commended by the brethren to the graceG5485 of the LordG2962. 41And he wentG1330 through SyriaG4947 and CiliciaG2791, confirming the churchesG1577.
