Acts 15:36-41 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

36. Then, after some days, Paul said to Barnabas, "Let us return to visit the brothers throughout all the cities in which we have preached the Word of the Lord, to see how they are."

37. And Barnabas wanted to take John, who was surnamed Mark, with them also.

38. But Paul was saying that he ought not to be received, since he withdrew from them at Pamphylia, and he had not gone with them in the work.

39. And there occurred a dissension, to such an extent that they departed from one another. And Barnabas, indeed taking Mark, sailed to Cyprus.

40. Yet truly, Paul, choosing Silas, set out, being delivered by the brothers to the grace of God.

41. And he traveled through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the Churches, instructing them to keep the precepts of the Apostles and the elders.
