1 NOW there were in the church at An’ti-och prophets and teachers; Bar’na-bas, and Simeon who was called Ni’ger, and Lu’cius from the city of Cy-rene, and Man’a-el, who was the son of the man who brought up Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2 As they fasted and prayed to God, the Holy Spirit said to them, Appoint for me Saul and Bar’na-bas for the work to which I have called them. 3 So, after they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. 4 Thus these two were sent forth by the Holy Spirit, and went down to Se-leu’ci-a; and from there they sailed to Cy’prus. 5 And when they had entered the city of Sal’a-mis, they preached the word of our LORD in the synagogues of the Jews: and John ministered unto them. 6 And when they had traveled the whole island as far as the city of Pa’phos, they found a Jewish sorcerer, who was a false prophet and whose name was Bar-Shu’ma: Acts 13:1-6, Lamsa Bible.
