Deeds (Act) of Apostles 15:18-23

¹⁸From the world, the work of the Lord is known to the Lord.

¹⁹For which thing I deem them that of heathen men be converted to God, to be not dis-eased or unquieted,

²⁰but to write to them, that they abstain them from defoulings of mau-mets or of simulacra, and from forni-cation, and strangled things, and blood.

²¹For Moses of old times hath in all cities them that preach him in syna-gogues, whereby each sabbath he is read.

²²Then it pleased to the apostles, and to the elder men, with all the church, to choose men of them, and send to Antioch, with Paul and Barnabas, Judas, that was named Barsabas, and Silas, the first men among brethren;

²³and wrote by the hands of them, Apostles and elder brethren to them that be at Antioch, and Syria, and Cilicia, brethren of heathen men, greeting.
