Acts 15:25-41

25it seemedG1380 goodG1380 to us, having arrived at a common judgment, to sendG3992 chosen menG435 to you with our belovedG27 BarnabasG921 and PaulG3972, 26menG444 who have given up their livesG5590 for the nameG3686 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 27We have thereforeG3767 sentG649 JudasG2455 and SilasG4609, who themselves alsoG2532 will tellG518 you by wordG3056 [of mouth] the sameG846 things. 28For it has seemedG1380 goodG1380 to the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 and to us to lay upon you no greaterG4183 burdenG922 than these necessary thingsG3778: 29to abstainG568 from thingsG3739 sacrificed to idols, and from bloodG129, and from what is strangled, and from fornication; keeping yourselves from which ye will do well. Farewell. 30They thereforeG3767, being let goG630, cameG2718 to AntiochG490, and having gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 delivered to [them] the epistle. 31And having readG314 it, they rejoicedG5463 at the consolation. 32And JudasG2455 and SilasG4609, beingG1510 themselves alsoG2532 prophetsG4396, exhortedG3870 the brethren with muchG4183 discourse, and strengthenedG1991 them. 33And having passed some timeG5550 [there], they were let goG630 in peaceG1515 from the brethren to those who sentG649 them. 35And PaulG3972 and BarnabasG921 stayedG1304 in AntiochG490, teachingG1321 and announcing the glad tidings, with manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532, of the wordG3056 of the LordG2962. 36But after certainG5100 daysG2250 PaulG3972 saidG3004 to BarnabasG921, Let us returnG1994 nowG1161 and visitG1980 the brethren in every cityG4172 where we have announced the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, [and see] howG4459 they are getting on. 37And BarnabasG921 proposed to takeG4838 with [them] JohnG2491 alsoG2532, calledG2564 MarkG3138; 38but PaulG3972 thought it not well to takeG4838 with them him who had abandoned them, [going back] from PamphyliaG3828, and had not gone with them to the workG2041. 39There aroseG1096 thereforeG5620 very warm feeling, so that they separated from oneG240 another; and BarnabasG921 taking MarkG3138 sailedG1602 awayG575 to CyprusG2954; 40but PaulG3972 having chosen SilasG4609 wentG1831 forthG1831, committed by the brethren to the graceG5485 of 1God. 41And he passedG1330 through SyriaG4947 and CiliciaG2791, confirming the assemblies.
