Acts 15:27-29
EasyEnglish Bible
27 So we are also sending Judas and Silas to you. They will tell you the same things that we have written in this letter. 28 The Holy Spirit has shown us what we should do. We also think that this is the right thing to do. We do not want to put a heavy weight on you. So these are the only rules that we want you to obey: 29 Do not eat any food that people have given to their idols. Do not eat anything that still has blood in it. If people have strangled an animal to kill it, do not eat its meat. Do not have sex with anyone that you are not married to. If you obey these rules, you will do well. Goodbye.’

Acts 15:27-29
New International Version
27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas(A) to confirm by word of mouth what we are writing. 28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit(B) and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: 29 You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality.(C) You will do well to avoid these things.
Farewell.
