Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:

We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.

And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and strengthened them.

But it pleased Silas to abide there still.

And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being commended by the brethren unto the grace of God.

And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace unto the rulers,

And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

And some of them believed, and joined Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.

And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming there went into the synagogue of the Jews.

And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timothy abode there still.

And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed, they departed.

And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the word, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silas and Timothy, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.

Paul, and Silas, and Timothy, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Paul, and Silas, and Timothy, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

By Silas, a faithful brother unto you, as I regard, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
