27 Now in these days (A)prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 And one of them named (B)Agabus stood up and foretold (C)by the Spirit that there would be a great (D)famine over all the world (this took place in the days of (E)Claudius). 29 So the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, (F)to send relief to (G)the brothers[a] living in Judea. 30 (H)And they did so, sending it to (I)the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.

James Killed and Peter Imprisoned

12 About that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church. He killed (J)James the brother of John (K)with the sword, and when he saw (L)that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during (M)the days of Unleavened Bread.
