First Missionary Journey

13 Now there were at (E)Antioch, in the (F)church that was there, (G)prophets and (H)teachers: (I)Barnabas, and Simeon who was called Niger, and Lucius of (J)Cyrene, and Manaen who had been brought up with (K)Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. While they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, (L)the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for Me (M)Barnabas and Saul for (N)the work to which I have called them.” Then, when they had fasted and (O)prayed and (P)laid their hands on them, (Q)they sent them away.
