and when James and Cephas and John, (A)who seemed to be (B)pillars, perceived the (C)grace that was given to me, they (D)gave the right hand of fellowship to Barnabas and me, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. 10 Only, they asked us to remember the poor, (E)the very thing I was eager to do.
