22ThenG5119 it pleasedG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80: 23And they wroteG1125 letters byG1223 themG5495G846 after this mannerG3592; The apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 andG2532 brethrenG80 send greetingG5463 to the brethrenG80 whoG3588 are ofG1537 the GentilesG1484 inG2596 AntiochG490 andG2532 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791: 24Forasmuch asG1894 we have heardG191, thatG3754 certainG5100 who went outG1831 fromG1537 usG2257 have troubledG5015 youG5209 with wordsG3056, subvertingG384 yourG5216 soulsG5590, sayingG3004, Ye must be circumcisedG4059, andG2532 keepG5083 the lawG3551: to whomG3739 we gaveG1291 noG3756 such commandmentG1291: 25It seemed goodG1380 to usG2254, being assembledG1096 with one accordG3661, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 toG4314 youG5209 withG4862 ourG2257 belovedG27 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, 26MenG444 that have riskedG3860 theirG846 livesG5590 forG5228 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 27We have sentG649 thereforeG3767 JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, whoG846 shallG518 alsoG2532 tellG518 you the same thingsG846 byG1223 mouthG3056.1 28ForG1063 it seemed goodG1380 to the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, andG2532 to usG2254, to lay uponG2007 youG5213 noG3367 greaterG4119 burdenG922 thanG4133 theseG5130 necessary thingsG1876; 29That ye abstainG567 from things offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from immoralityG4202: fromG1537 whichG3739 if ye keepG1301 yourselvesG1438, ye shall doG4238 wellG2095. Fare ye wellG4517. 30SoG3303G3767 when they were dismissedG630, they cameG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490: andG2532 when they had gatheredG4863 the multitudeG4128 togetherG4863, they deliveredG1929 the epistleG1992: 31Which whenG1161 they had readG314, they rejoicedG5463 forG1909 the consolationG3874.2 32And JudasG2455 andG2532 SilasG4609, beingG5607 prophetsG4396 alsoG2532 themselvesG846, exhortedG3870 the brethrenG80 withG1223 manyG4183 wordsG3056, andG2532 confirmedG1991 them . 33AndG1161 after they had tarriedG4160 there a timeG5550, they were sent awayG630 inG3326 peaceG1515 fromG575 the brethrenG80 toG4314 the apostlesG652. 34HoweverG1161 it pleasedG1380 SilasG4609 to abideG1961 thereG847 stillG1961. 35PaulG3972 alsoG1161 andG2532 BarnabasG921 continuedG1304 inG1722 AntiochG490, teachingG1321 andG2532 preachingG2097 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, withG3326 manyG4183 othersG2087 alsoG2532.
36AndG1161 someG5100 daysG2250 afterG3326 PaulG3972 saidG2036 toG4314 BarnabasG921, Let us go againG1994 and visitG1980 ourG2257 brethrenG80 inG2596 everyG3956 cityG4172 whereG1722G3739 we have preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, and see howG4459 they doG2192. 37AndG1161 BarnabasG921 determinedG1011 to take with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG2564 MarkG3138. 38ButG1161 PaulG3972 thoughtG515 notG3361 goodG515 to takeG4838 himG5126 with themG4838, whoG3588 departedG868 fromG575 themG846 fromG575 PamphyliaG3828, andG2532 wentG4905 notG3361 with themG846 toG1519 the workG2041. 39AndG3767 the contentionG3948 wasG1096 so sharpG3948 between themG846, thatG5620 they departedG673 one from the otherG575G240: and soG5037 BarnabasG921 tookG3880 MarkG3138, and sailedG1602 toG1519 CyprusG2954; 40AndG1161 PaulG3972 choseG1951 SilasG4609, and departedG1831, being commendedG3860 byG5259 the brethrenG80 to the graceG5485 of GodG2316. 41AndG1161 he went throughG1330 SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791, confirmingG1991 the churchesG1577.
