This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
15:22 The letter is carried to Antioch
22 So the missionaries and elders with all the assembly decided to choose some men to accompany Paul and Barnabas to Antioch, so they chose Yudas (nicknamed Barsabbas) and Silas who were leaders among the believers, 23 This is what they wrote: This letter is from the missionaries and elders, your brothers here in Yerusalem to our non-Jewish fellow believers in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia. 24 Since we heard that some people who weren’t sent by us came from here and disturbed you all with their upsetting messages, 25 we unanimously agreed to select some men to accompany our dear friends Barnabas and Paul back. 26 These are men who have dedicated their lives to our master, Yeshua the messiah. 27 So we’ve sent Yudas and Silas and they’ll confirm in person what we are writing. 28 It seemed right to the holy spirit and to us to not burden you all with anything more than the following commands: 29 you all must keep away from anything sacrificed to idols, from eating or drinking blood or strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. You will do well if you avoid these things. Farewell.
30 So they were sent off and when they arrived at Antioch, they gathered the believers and handed across the letter, 31 and when they read it, they were very happy with the encouraging contents.
32 Yudas and Barnabas were both prophets, and said a lot to encourage them and strengthen their faith. 33 After they’d stayed there for a while, the believers sent them home carrying greetings from them to the assembly back in Yerusalem.
34 ◘ 35 But Paul and Barnabas stayed on there in Antioch, teaching them and preaching the good message along with many others.
