24Since we have heard that some went out from us and troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, to whom we gave no instructions,

25it seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

26men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

27Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who themselves will report the same things by word of mouth.
