15:36 After some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let’s return 5 and visit the brothers in every town where we proclaimed the word of the Lord 6 to see how they are doing.” 7 15:37 Barnabas wanted to bring John called Mark along with them too, 15:38 but Paul insisted 8 that they should not take along this one who had left them in Pamphylia 9 and had not accompanied them in the work. 15:39 They had 10 a sharp disagreement, 11 so that they parted company. Barnabas took along 12 Mark and sailed away to Cyprus, 13 15:40 but Paul chose Silas and set out, commended 14 to the grace of the Lord by the brothers and sisters. 15 15:41 He passed through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening 16 the churches.
