Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:

We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.

And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.

Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.

And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.

And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,

And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.

And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
