Acts 15:36-39

Second Missionary Journey

36 After some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Let us return and visit the brethren in ¹every city in which we proclaimed ²the word of the Lord, and see how they are."

37 Barnabas wanted to take ³John, called Mark, along with them also.

38 But Paul kept insisting that they should not take him along who had ⁴deserted them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work.

39 And there occurred such a sharp disagreement that they separated from one another, and Barnabas took ⁵Mark with him and sailed away to ⁶Cyprus.
