30. They, therefore, being sent off, went to Antioch. And having gathered the crowd together, they delivered the letter.
31. And having read it, they rejoiced over its encouragement.
32. And Yehuḏah and Sila, being themselves also prophets, encouraged the brothers with many words and strengthened them.
33. And having spent some time, they were sent back in peace from the brothers to the emissaries.
34. But it seemed good to Sila to remain.
35. And Sha’ul and Barnaḇah continued in Antioch, teaching and bringing, with many others also, the Good News: the Word of יהוה!
36. And after some days Sha’ul said to Barnaḇah, “Let us now go back and visit our brothers in every city where we proclaimed the Word of יהוה, and see how they are.”
37. And Barnaḇah purposed to take with them Yoḥanan called Mark.
38. But Sha’ul thought it not fit to take with them the one who withdrew from them in Pamphulia, and had not gone with them to the work.
39. A sharp feeling therefore came to be, so that they parted from one another. And so Barnaḇah took Mark and sailed to Cyprus.
40. And Sha’ul chose Sila and went off, being committed by the brothers to the favour of Elohim.
