it seemed best to us, {having reached a unanimous decision}, [and] having chosen men, to send [them] to you together with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul,
26
men who have risked their lives on behalf of the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27
Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, and they will report the same [things] by word of mouth.
28
For it seemed best to the Holy Spirit and to us to place on you no greater burden except these necessary things:
29
[that you] abstain from food sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. [If you] keep yourselves from {these things} you will do well. Farewell.
