[1] And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. [2] Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about question. [3] And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren. [4] And when they were come to the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them. [5] But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses. [6] the apostles and elders came together of matter. [7] And when there had been much Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, know how that a good while ago God made choice among that the Gentiles by mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. [8] And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as [9] And no difference between and them, purifying their hearts by faith. [10] Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither fathers nor were able to bear?
