Acts 11:23-30

23 When he came and saw ^athe grace of God, he was glad, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord ^bwith steadfast purpose, 24 for he was a good man, ^cfull of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people ^dwere added to the Lord. 25 So Barnabas went to ^eTarsus to look for Saul, 26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called ^fChristians.

27 Now in these days ^gprophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 And one of them named ^hAgabus stood up and foretold ⁱby the Spirit that there would be a great ^jfamine over all the world (this took place in the days of ^kClaudius). 29 So the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, ^lto send relief to ^mthe brothers ^{▼▼Or brothers and sisters} living in Judea. 30 ^oAnd they did so, sending it to ^pthe elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
