Acts 15:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, which shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
28 [a]For it seemed good to the [b]holy Ghost, and [c]to us, to lay no more burden upon you, than these [d]necessary things.
29 [e]That is, that ye abstain from things offered to idols, and blood, and that that is strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
