Acts 15
1 Some men came down from Yehuda and taught the brothers, "Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Mushe, you cannot be saved."

2 Therefore when Paul and Bar-Naba had no small discord and discussion with them, they appointed Paul and Bar-Naba, and some others of them, to go up to Urishlim to the apostles and elders about this question.

3 They, being sent on their way by the church, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, describing in detail the conversion of the non-Jewish people. They caused great joy to all the brothers.

4 When they had come to Urishlim, they were received by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all things that God had done with them.

5 But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, "It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the Law of Mushe."

7 When there had been much discussion, Kipha rose up and said to them, "Brothers, you know that a good while ago God made a choice among you, that by my mouth the nations should hear the word of the Good News, and believe.

8 God, who knows the heart, testified about them by giving the Rukha d'Qudsha, just like he did to us.

10 Now therefore why do you tempt God, that you should put a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

12 And all the people kept quiet, and they listened to Bar-Naba and Paul reporting what signs and wonders God had done among the nations through them.

13 After they were silent, Yaquv answered, "Brothers, listen to me.

14 Shimon has reported how God first visited the nations, to take out of them a people for his name.

15 This agrees with the words of the prophets. As it is written,

17 that the rest of humanity may seek after the Lord, and all the nations who are called by my name, says the Lord, who makes these things

22 Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Bar-Naba: Yehudah called Bar-Shaba, and Silas, leaders among the brothers.

25 it seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them to you with our beloved Bar-Naba and Paul,

30 So, when they were sent off, they came to Antioch, and having gathered the congregation together, they delivered the letter.

35 And Paul and Bar-Naba stayed in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming the word of the Lord, with many others also.

36 After some days Paul said to Bar-Naba, "Let us return now and visit our brothers in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing."

37 Bar-Naba planned to take Yukhanan, who was called Markos, with them also.

38 But Paul did not think that it was a good idea to take with them someone who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia, and did not go with them to do the work.
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲝⲓⲟⲓⲛ ϫⲉⲭⲁⲥ ⲫⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲫⲱⲣϫ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲡⲁⲙⲫⲩⲗⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥ⳿ⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲟⲗϥ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
39 Then the contention grew so sharp that they separated from each other. Bar-Naba took Markos with him, and sailed away to Cyprus,
