Acts 15:25-31

²⁵It seemed therefore good to vs, when we were come together with one accord, to send chosen men vnto you, with our beloued Barnabas and Paul,

²⁶Men that haue giuen vp their liues for the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ.

²⁷We haue therefore sent Iudas and Silas, which shall also tell you ye same things by mouth.

²⁸For it seemed good to the holy Ghost, and to vs, to lay no more burden vpon you, then these necessary things,

²⁹That is, that ye abstaine from things offered to idoles, and blood, and that that is strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keepe your selues, ye shall doe well. Fare ye well.

³⁰Nowe when they were departed, they came to Antiochia, and after that they had assembled the multitude, they deliuered the Epistle.

³¹And when they had read it, they reioyced for the consolation.
