2 Now as they [a]ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul, for the work whereunto I have [b]called them.
3 [c]Then fasted they and prayed, and laid their hands on them, and let them go.
4 [d]And they after they were sent forth of the holy Ghost, came down unto [e]Seleucia, and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
