Acts 11:25-30
25And he left for 1Tarsus to look for Saul; 26and when he had found him, he brought him to 2Antioch. And for an entire year they 3met with the church and taught 4considerable numbers of people; and 5the disciples were first called 6Christians in 7Antioch.
27Now 8at this time some 9prophets came down from Jerusalem to 10Antioch. 28One of them, named 11Agabus, stood up and 12indicated 13by the Spirit that there would definitely be a severe famine 14all over the 15world. 16And this took place in the reign of 17Claudius. 29And to the extent that any of 18the disciples had means, each of them determined to send a contribution for the 19relief of 20the brothers and sisters living in Judea. 3021And they did this, sending it 22with 23Barnabas and Saul to the 24elders.
