24seeing we have heard that certain having gone forth from us did trouble you with words, subverting your souls, saying to be circumcised and to keep the law, to whom we did give no charge,
25it seemed good to us, having come together with one accord, chosen men to send unto you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul —
26men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ —
27we have sent, therefore, Judas and Silas, and they by word are telling the same things.
