1 Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Symeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who was a close friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”

3 Then, completing their fasting and prayer, they laid hands on them and sent them off.

4 So they, sent forth by the holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia and from there sailed to Cyprus.
