25
it seemed good to us, having come together with one accord, chosen men to send unto you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul --
26
men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ --
27
we have sent, therefore, Judas and Silas, and they by word are telling the same things.
28
`For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, no more burden to lay upon you, except these necessary things:
29
to abstain from things offered to idols, and blood, and a strangled thing, and whoredom; from which keeping yourselves, ye shall do well; be strong!'
