²⁷ We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who themselves also will tell you by word [of mouth] the same things.

²⁸ For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:

²⁹ to abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what is strangled, and from fornication; keeping yourselves from which ye will do well. Farewell.
