1 Now there were in Antioch, in the Church there –as Prophets and teachers– barnabas, Symeon surnamed the black,' Lucius the Cyrenaean, Manaen (who was Herod the Tetrarch's foster-brother), and Saul.

2 While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, »Set apart for Me, now at once, Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them.«

3 So, after fasting and prayer and the laying on of hands, they let them go.
