27We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who will themselves tell you the same things by word of mouth.
28For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us, to lay upon you no further burden except these necessary things:
29to abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, ye will do well. Farewell.”
30They therefore being sent away came to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.
31And when they had read it, they rejoiced over the encouragement.
32And Judas and Silas, who were themselves prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words and confirmed them.
33And when they had remained some time, they were dismissed with peace from the brethren to those who sent them.
35But Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and publishing, with many others also, the glad tidings of the word of the Lord.
36And some days after, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit the brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are.
37And Barnabas determined to take with them John, called Mark.
