Holman Christian Standard Bible

²² Then the report about them was heard by the church that was at Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to travel^[a] as far as Antioch. ²³ When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged all of them to remain true to the Lord with a firm resolve of the heart,^{(A) 24} for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit^(B) and of faith. And large numbers of people were added^(C) to the Lord. ²⁵ Then he^[b] went to Tarsus to search for Saul, ²⁶ and when he found him he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught large numbers. The disciples^(D) were first called Christians at Antioch.^(E)
