Acts 11:19-30
191SoG3767 thenG3767 thoseG3588 who were scatteredG1289 becauseG575 of the 2persecutionG2347 that occurredG1096 in connectionG1909 with StephenG4736 madeG1330 their wayG1330 3to 4PhoeniciaG5403 and 5CyprusG2954 and 6AntiochG490, speakingG2980 the wordG3056 to noG3367 oneG3367 exceptG1508 to JewsG2453 aloneG3441. 20But there were someG5100 of them, menG435 of 7CyprusG2953 and 8CyreneG2956, whoG3748 cameG2064 to 9AntiochG490 and began speakingG2980 to the 1011GreeksG1672 alsoG2532, 1213preachingG2097 the LordG2962 JesusG2424. 21And 14the handG5495 of the LordG2962 was with them, and 15a largeG4183 numberG706 who believedG4100 turnedG1994 to the LordG2962. 22The 16newsG3056 aboutG4012 them 17reachedG191 the earsG3775 of the churchG1577 at JerusalemG2419, and they sentG1821 18BarnabasG921 offG1821 19to 20AntiochG490. 23Then when he arrivedG3854 and 21witnessedG3708 22the graceG5485 of GodG2316, he rejoicedG5463 and began to encourageG3870 them allG3956 with 23resoluteG4286 heartG2588 to remainG4357 true to the LordG2962; 24for he was a goodG18 manG435, and 24fullG4134 of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 and of faithG4102. And 25considerableG2425 26numbersG3793 were 27broughtG4369 to the LordG2962. 25And he leftG1831 for 28TarsusG5019 to lookG327 for SaulG4569; 26and when he had foundG2147 him, he broughtG71 him to 29AntiochG490. And for an entireG3650 yearG1763 they 30metG4863 with the churchG1577 and taughtG1321 considerableG2425 31numbersG3793; and 32the disciplesG3101 were firstG4416 calledG5537 33ChristiansG5546 in 34AntiochG490.
27NowG1161 35at thisG3778 timeG2250 36some prophetsG4396 cameG2718 downG2718 from JerusalemG2414 to 37AntiochG490. 28OneG1520 of them namedG3686 38AgabusG13 stoodG450 up and began to indicateG4591 39by the SpiritG4151 that there wouldG3195 certainlyG3195 be a greatG3173 famineG3042 40allG3650 overG1909 the 41worldG3625. 42And thisG3748 tookG1096 placeG1096 in the reign of 43ClaudiusG2804. 29And in the proportionG2531 that anyG5100 of 44the disciplesG3101 hadG2141 meansG2141, eachG1538 of them determinedG3724 to sendG3992 a contribution for the 45reliefG1248 of 46the brethrenG80 livingG2730 in JudeaG2453. 3047And thisG3739 they didG4160, sendingG649 it 48in chargeG1223G5495 of 49BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 to the 50eldersG4245.
