οἱ & ἀπολυθέντες, κατῆλθον
they & /having_been/_sent_away came_down

οἱ
they
The pronoun they refers to Paul, Barnabas, Judas, and Silas. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “Paul, Barnabas, Judas, and Silas”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
κατῆλθον

You may wish to retain the idiom for travel to a lower elevation, and if so, your language might say “went” instead of came. Alternate translation: “went down”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸ πλῆθος
the multitude
Luke assumes that his readers will know that by the crowd, he means the people of the church in Antioch. You can include this information if your readers need it to understand this sentence. Alternate translation: “the people of the church in Antioch”
