Acts 15:14-22
English Standard Version
Chapter 15
14Simeon has related how God first visited the Gentiles, to take from them a people for his name. 15And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written,
16 "‘After this I will return, and I will rebuild the tent of David that has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it,
17that the remnant of mankind may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the Lord, who makes these things
18 known from of old.’
19Therefore my judgment is that we should not trouble those of the Gentiles who turn to God,
20but should write to them to abstain from the things polluted by idols, and from sexual immorality, and from what has been strangled, and from blood.
21For from ancient generations Moses has had in every city those who proclaim him, for he is read every Sabbath in the synagogues."
