12:24 | Pero la palabra del Señor iba creciendo y multiplicándose. |
12:25 | Entonces Bernabé y Saulo, habiendo completado el ministerio, regresó de Jerusalén, trayendo consigo a Juan, que se apellidaba Marcos. |
13:1 | Ahora había, en la Iglesia de Antioquia, profetas y maestros, entre los cuales estaban Bernabé, y simon, quien se llamaba el negro, y Lucio de Cirene, y Manahén, quien fue el hermano de crianza de Herodes el tetrarca, y Saulo. |
13:2 | Mientras servían para el Señor y ayunaban, el Espíritu Santo les dijo: “Separadme a Saulo y a Bernabé, para la obra para la cual los he seleccionado.” |
13:3 | Entonces, ayunando y orando e imponiendo sus manos sobre ellos, los enviaron lejos. |
13:4 | Y habiendo sido enviados por el Espíritu Santo, fueron a Seleucia. Y de allí navegaron a Chipre. |

Evangelio
John 12: 44- 50
12:44 | But Jesus cried out and said: “Whoever believes in me, does not believe in me, but in him who sent me. |
12:45 | And whoever sees me, sees him who sent me. |
12:46 | I have arrived as a light to the world, so that all who believe in me might not remain in darkness. |
12:47 | And if anyone has heard my words and not kept them, I do not judge him. For I did not come so that I may judge the world, but so that I may save the world. |
12:48 | Whoever despises me and does not accept my words has one who judges him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him on the last day. |
12:49 | For I am not speaking from myself, but from the Father who sent me. He gave a commandment to me as to what I should say and how I should speak. |
12:50 | And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Por lo tanto, the things that I speak, just as the Father has said to me, so also do I speak.” |
