Acts 11:20-24

The Church in Antioch

²⁰ But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Hellenists ₁ also, _n preaching the Lord Jesus. ²¹ And _o the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who believed _p turned to the Lord. ²² The report of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. ²³ When he came and saw _q the grace of God, he was glad, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord _r with steadfast purpose, ²⁴ for he was a good man, _s full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people _t were added to the Lord.
