11:27 At that time 19 some 20 prophets 21 came down 22 from Jerusalem 23 to Antioch. 24 11:28 One of them, named Agabus, got up 25 and predicted 26 by the Spirit that a severe 27 famine 28 was about to come over the whole inhabited world. 29 (This 30 took place during the reign of Claudius.) 31 11:29 So the disciples, each in accordance with his financial ability, 32 decided 33 to send relief 34 to the brothers living in Judea. 11:30 They did so, 35 sending their financial aid 36 to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
