Acts 15:24-29

Christian Standard Bible

²⁴ Since we have heard that some without our authorization went out from us^(A) and troubled you with their words and unsettled your hearts,^{[a](B) 25} we have unanimously^(C) decided to select men and send them to you along with our dearly loved Barnabas and Paul, ²⁶ who have risked their lives^(D) for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. ²⁷ Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who will personally report the same things by word of mouth. ²⁸ For it was the Holy Spirit’s decision—and ours—not to place further burdens on you beyond these requirements:^{(E) 29} that you abstain from food offered to idols, from blood, from eating anything that has been strangled, and from sexual immorality.^(F) You will do well if you keep yourselves from these things.

Farewell.”
