27
We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves also will, by word of mouth, tell you the same things.
28
For it hath seemed good to the Holy Ghost and to us to lay no further burden upon you than these necessary things:
29
That you abstain from things sacrificed to idols and from blood and from things strangled and from fornication: from which things keeping yourselves, you shall do well. Fare ye well.
30
They therefore, being dismissed, went down to Antioch and, gathering together the multitude, delivered the epistle.
31
Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
32
But Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, with many words comforted the brethren and confirmed them.
33
And after they had spent some time there, they were let go with peace by the brethren unto them that had sent them.
34
But it seemed good unto Silas to remain there: and Judas alone departed to Jerusalem.
35
And Paul and Barnabas continued at Antioch, teaching and preaching, with many others, the word of the Lord.
36
And after some days, Paul said to Barnabas: Let us return and visit our brethren in all the cities wherein we have preached the word of the Lord, to see how they do.
37
And Barnabas would have taken with them John also, that was surnamed Mark.
