12ThenG1161 allG3956 the multitudeG4128 kept silenceG4601, andG2532 hearkenedG191 to BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, declaringG1834 whatG3745 miraclesG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 byG1223 themG846 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484. 13AndG1161 afterG3326 they heldG4601 theirG846 peaceG4601, JamesG2385 answeredG611, sayingG3004, MenG435, brethrenG80, hearkenG191 to meG3450: 14SimeonG4826 hath declaredG1834 howG2531 GodG2316 at the firstG4412 visitedG1980 the GentilesG1484, to takeG2983 from amongG1537 them a peopleG2992 forG1909 hisG846 nameG3686. 15AndG2532 to thisG5129 agreeG4856 the wordsG3056 of the prophetsG4396; asG2531 it is writtenG1125, 16AfterG3326 thisG5023 I will returnG390, andG2532 will build againG456 the tabernacleG4633 of DavidG1138, whichG3588 is fallen downG4098; andG2532 I will build againG456 itsG846 ruinsG2679, andG2532 I will setG461 itG846 upG461: 17ThatG3704G302 the restG2645 of menG444 may seek afterG1567 the LordG2962, andG2532 allG3956 the GentilesG1484, uponG1909 whomG3739 myG3450 nameG3686 is calledG1941G1909G846, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whoG3588 doethG4160 allG3956 these thingsG5023. 18KnownG1110 to GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165. 19ThereforeG1352 myG1473 judgment isG2919, that we troubleG3926 notG3361 them, whoG3588 from amongG575 the GentilesG1484 are turnedG1994 toG1909 GodG2316: 20ButG235 that we writeG1989 to themG846, that they abstainG567 fromG575 pollutionsG234 of idolsG1497, andG2532 from immoralityG4202, andG2532 from things strangledG4156, andG2532 from bloodG129. 21ForG1063 MosesG3475 ofG1537 oldG744 timeG1074 hathG2192 in everyG2596 cityG4172 them that preachG2784 himG846, being readG314 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 everyG2596G3956 sabbathG4521.
