Acts 15:30-35
Wycliffe Bible
30 Therefore they were let go, and came down to Antioch; and when the multitude was gathered, they took the epistle; [Therefore they dismissed, came down to Antioch; and, when the multitude was gathered, they betook the epistle;]
31 which when they had read, they joyed on the comfort.
32 And Judas and Silas and they, for they were prophets, comforted brethren, and confirmed [them] with full many words. [Forsooth Judas and Silas and they, when they were prophets, with full much word comforted brethren, and confirmed them.]
33 But after that they had been there a little while, they were let go of brethren with peace [they were dismissed, or left, with peace of brethren], to them that had sent them.
34 But it was seen to Silas, to dwell there; and Judas went alone to Jerusalem.
35 And Paul and Barnabas dwelt at Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with others many [with many others].

- Acts 15:30 It is requisite for all people to know certainly what to hold in matters of faith and religion, and not that the Church by ignorance and knowing nothing, should depend upon the pleasure of a few.
- Acts 15:33 This is an Hebrew kind of speech, which is as much to say, as the brethren wished them all prosperous success, and the Church dismissed them with good leave.
