Acts 15:35-41

³⁵And Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming good news — with many others also — the word of the Lord;

³⁶and after certain days, Paul said unto Barnabas, 'Having turned back again, we may look after our brethren, in every city in which we have preached the word of the Lord — how they are.'

³⁷And Barnabas counselled to take with them John called Mark,

³⁸and Paul was not thinking it good to take him with them who withdrew from them from Pamphylia, and did not go with them to the work;

³⁹there came, therefore, a sharp contention, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas having taken Mark, did sail to Cyprus,

⁴⁰and Paul having chosen Silas, went forth, having been given up to the grace of God by the brethren;

⁴¹and he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
