23And they sent a letter by them, saying, The Apostles and the older brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, may joy be with you:
24Because we have knowledge that some who went from us have been troubling you with their words, putting your souls in doubt; to whom we gave no such order;
25It seemed good to us, having come to an agreement together, to send these men to you, with our well loved Barnabas and Paul,
26Men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27And so we have sent Judas and Silas, who will say the same things to you themselves, by word of mouth.
28For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us, to put on you nothing more than these necessary things;
29To keep from things offered to false gods, and from blood, and from things put to death in ways which are against the law, and from the evil desires of the body; if you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. May you be happy.
30So they, being sent away, came down to Antioch, and having got the people together, they gave them the letter.
31And after reading it, they were glad of its comfort.
32And Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, gave teaching to the brothers and made them strong in the faith.
33And when they had been there for some time, they were sent back in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.
35But Paul and Barnabas kept on in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of God, with a number of others.
36And after some days, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go back and see the brothers in every town where we have given the word of God, and see how they are.
37And Barnabas had a desire to take with them John, named Mark.
