Now the Apostles and the brothers who were in Judaea had news that the word of God had been given to the Gentiles.

2 ᏈᏓᏃ ᏥᎷᏏᎵᎻ ᏭᎷᏨ ᏗᎨᏥᎤᏍᏕᏎᎸᎯ ᏕᎬᏩᎦᏘᎸᏎᎢ,

And when Peter came to Jerusalem, those who kept the rule of circumcision had an argument with him,

3 ᎯᎠ ᏄᏂᏪᎡᎢ; ᏂᏗᎨᏥᎤᏍᏕᏎᎸᎾ ᏕᎯᏴᏎᎴᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏧᎳᎭ ᎢᏣᎵᏍᏓᏴᏁᎢ.

Saying, You went to men without circumcision, and took food with them.

4 ᎠᏎᏃ ᏈᏓ ᎤᎴᏅᎮ ᏚᏃᎮᎮᎴ ᏂᎦᏛ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎤᏱᎸᏎᎢ, ᎯᎠ ᏄᏪᏎᎢ;

But Peter gave them an account of it all in order, saying to them,

5 ᏦᏈ ᎦᏚᎲ ᎨᏙᎲᎩ ᎦᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎬᎩ; ᏣᎦᎵᎰᏃ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎾᏆᎵᏍᏓᏁᎸ ᎠᏆᏁᎳᏫᏎᎸᎩ, ᎠᏖᎵᏙ ᎠᎩᎪᎲᎩ ᎡᎳᏗ ᏅᏓᏳᏍᏗᏗᏒᎩ, ᎡᏆ ᎠᏄᏬ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ ᎦᎸᎳᏗ ᏅᏓᏳᏓᎴᏅᎯ, ᏅᎩ ᏂᏚᏅᏏᏴ ᏥᏚᏂᏂᏴᏐᎢ; ᎠᎴ ᎠᏴ ᎠᎩᎷᏤᎸᎩ.

I was in the town of Joppa, at prayer: and falling into a deep sleep, I saw in a vision a vessel like a great cloth let down from heaven, and it came down to me:

6 ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎠᏆᎦᏙᏍᏔᏅ ᎠᏆᏓᏅᏖᎸᎩ ᎠᎴ ᏕᏥᎪᎥᎩ ᏅᎩ ᏗᏂᏅᏌᏗ ᎡᎶᎯ ᎠᏁᎯ ᎠᎴ ᎢᎾᎨ ᎠᏁᎯ ᎠᎴ ᎠᎾᏓᎾᏏᏂᏙᎯ ᎠᎴ ᎦᎸᎶ ᎠᏂᏃᎯᎵᏙᎯ.

And looking on it with attention I saw in it all sorts of beasts and birds.

7 ᎧᏁᎬᏃ ᎠᏆᏛᎦᏅᎩ ᎯᎠ ᎾᎩᏪᏎᎸᎩ; ᏔᎴᎲᎦ ᏈᏓ, ᎯᎷᎦ ᎠᎴ ᎭᎵᏍᏓᏴᎲᎦ.

And a voice came to my ears saying, Come, Peter; take them for food.

8 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎯᎠ ᎾᎩᏪᏒᎩ; ᏞᏍᏗ, ᏣᎬᏫᏳᎯ, ᏝᏰᏃ ᎢᎸᎯᏳ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᎦᏓᎭ ᎠᎴ ᏂᎦᏅᎦᎸᎲᎾ ᏳᏴᎶ ᏥᎣᎵ.

But I said, No, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever come into my mouth.

9 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎧᏁᎬ ᏔᎵᏁ ᎯᎠ ᏅᏛᎠᎩᏪᏎᎸᎩ ᎦᎸᎳᏗ ᏛᎤᎶᏒᎩ; ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏅᎦᎸᏛ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏞᏍᏗ ᎦᏓᎭ ᏲᏎᎮᏍᏗ.

But the voice, coming a second time from heaven, said, What God has made clean, do not you make common.

10 ᏦᎢᏃ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎯᎠ ᏄᎵᏍᏔᏅᎩ, ᏂᎦᏛᏃ ᎦᎸᎳᏗ ᏔᎵᏁ ᏭᎵᏌᎳᏓᏅᎩ.

And this was done three times, and they were all taken up again into heaven.

11 ᎬᏂᏳᏉᏃ ᎩᎳᏉ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏦᎢ ᎢᏯᏂᏛ ᎠᏂᏍᎦᏯ ᎠᏂᏙᎾᎥ ᎠᏓᏁᎸ ᎾᎿᎭᎠᏉᎸᎢ, ᎬᎩᏯᏅᎰᎸᎯ ᏏᏌᎵᏱ ᏅᏓᎨᏥᏅᏒᎯ.

And at that minute, three men, sent from Caesarea, came to the house where we were.

12 ᎠᏓᏅᏙᏃ ᎯᎠ ᎾᎩᏪᏎᎸᎩ; ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᏂᏗᏣᏢᏫᏎᎲᎾ ᏘᏍᏓᏩᏚᎦ. ᎾᏍᏉᏃ ᎯᎠ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏑᏓᎵ ᎢᏯᏂᏛ ᎢᏓᏓᏅᏟ ᎬᏆᎵᎪᏁᎸᎩ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏍᎦᏯ ᏗᎦᏁᎸ ᏬᎩᏴᎸᎩ.

And the Spirit gave me orders to go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brothers came with me; and we went into that man's house:

13 ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎣᎩᏃᏁᎸᎩ ᎤᎪᎲᎢ ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏗᏙᎯ ᎤᏩᏒ ᎦᏁᎸᎢ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎦᏙᎨ ᎯᎠ ᏄᏪᏎᎴᎢ; ᏦᏈ ᏘᏅᎵ ᎠᏂᏫᏅ, ᎠᎴ ᏫᏯᏅ ᏌᏩᏂ ᏈᏓ ᏧᏙᎢᏛ;

And he gave us an account of how he had seen the angel in his house, saying, Send to Joppa, and get Simon, named Peter, to come to you;

14 ᎾᏍᎩ ᏓᏣᏃᏁᎵ ᎢᏣᏛᏁᏗᏱ ᏣᎵᏍᏕᎸᏗᏱ ᏂᎯ ᎠᎴ ᏂᎦᏛ ᏗᏣᏤᎵ ᏏᏓᏁᎸᎢ.

Who will say words to you through which you and all your family may get salvation.

15 ᎠᏆᎴᏅᎲᏃ ᎠᎩᏬᏂᏒ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ ᎡᎳᏗ ᏄᏛᏁᎸᎩ, ᎤᏂᎷᏤᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎠᏴ ᏥᎩᎷᏤᎸ ᏗᏓᎴᏂᏍᎬᎢ.

And, while I was talking to them, the Holy Spirit came on them, as on us at first.

16 ᎿᎭᏉᏃ ᎠᏆᏅᏓᏛᎩ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏁᏨᎢ, ᎯᎠ ᏥᏄᏪᏒᎩ; ᏣᏂ ᎤᏙᎯᏳᎯ ᎠᎹ ᏓᏓᏬᏍᏗᏍᎬᎩ, ᏂᎯᏍᎩᏂ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ ᏙᏓᏰᏣᏬᏍᏔᏂ.

And the words of the Lord came into my mind, how he said, The baptism of John was with water, but you will have baptism with the Holy Spirit.

17 ᎢᏳᏃ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏧᏁᎸᎯ ᏱᎩ ᎤᏓᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᏥᎩᏁᎸᎩ ᎠᏴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎡᏙᎢᏳᏅᎯ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ, ᎦᏙ ᎠᏴ ᎨᏎ ᏰᎵ ᎦᏥᏲᏍᏙᏓᏁᏗ ᎨᏎ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ.

If then God gave them, when they had faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the same as he gave to us, who was I to go against God?

18 ᎤᎾᏛᎦᏅᏃ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎡᎳᏪ ᎤᏅᏁᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏂᎸᏉᏔᏁ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ, ᎯᎠ ᏄᏂᏪᏎᎢ: ᎾᏍᏉᎧᏂ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏧᎾᏓᎴᏅᏛ ᏴᏫ ᏕᎤᏁᎸ ᏚᎾᏓᏅᏛ ᏧᏂᏁᏟᏴᏍᏗᏱ ᎬᏂᏛ ᏩᎵᏱᎶᎯᎯ.

And hearing these things they said nothing more, but gave glory to God, saying, Then to the Gentiles as to us has God given a change of heart, so that they may have life.

19 ᎤᎾᏗᎦᎴᏲᏨᎯᏃ ᎾᎯᏳ ᎤᏲ ᏥᏄᎾᎵᏍᏓᏁᎴ, ᏨᏧᏓᎴᏅᎮ ᏍᏗᏫ, ᏈᏂᏏ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏭᏁᏙᎴᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᏌᏈ, ᎠᎴ ᎥᏘᎣᎩ, ᎠᏂᏧᏏᏉ ᎤᏅᏒ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᏓᏂᏃᎮᎮᎮᎢ.

Then those who had gone away at the time of the trouble about Stephen, went as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus, preaching to the Jews only.

20 ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎢᎦᏛ ᏌᏈ ᎠᎴ ᏌᎵᏂ ᎠᏁᎯ ᎨᏎᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎥᏘᎣᎩ ᏭᏂᎷᏨ ᏚᏂᏬᏁᏔᏁ ᎠᏂᎪᎢ, ᎠᏂᏃᎮᏍᎨ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᏌ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ.

But some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, when they came to Antioch, gave the good news about the Lord Jesus to the Greeks.

21 ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏃ ᎤᏬᏰᏂ ᏔᎵ ᎤᏛᏗᏕᎨᎢ, ᎤᏂᏤᏖᏃ ᎤᏃᎯᏳᏁᎢ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏃ ᎢᏗᏢ ᏭᎾᎦᏔᎲᏍᏔᏁᎢ.

And the power of the Lord was with them, and a great number had faith and were turned to the Lord.

22 ᏧᎾᏁᎶᏗᏃ ᎤᎾᏓᏡᎬ ᏥᎷᏏᎵᎻ ᎠᏁᎯ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎯᎠ ᎤᎾᏛᎦᏁᎢ, ᎤᏂᏅᏎᏃ ᏆᏂᏆ ᎥᏖᎣᎩ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏭᏪᏓᏍᏗᏱ.

And news of them came to the ears of the church at Jerusalem: and they sent Barnabas as far as Antioch:

23 ᎾᏍᎩ ᏭᎷᏨ ᎠᎴ ᎤᎪᎲ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎤᎵᎮᎵᏤᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᏚᏔᏲᏎᎴ ᏂᎦᏛ ᎤᎵᏂᎩᏛ ᎤᎾᏓᏅᏓᏗᏍᏗᏱ ᏧᏂᏂᏴᏗᏱ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ.

Who, when he came and saw the grace of God, was glad; and he made clear to them the need of keeping near the Lord with all the strength of their hearts:

24 ᎤᏓᏅᏘᏰᏃ ᎨᏎ ᎠᏍᎦᏯ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᎧᎵᏨᎯ ᎨᏎ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ ᎠᎴ ᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ. ᎤᏂᏣᏖᏃ ᏴᏫ ᎬᏩᏁᏉᏤᎴ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ.

For he was a good man and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith: and a great number were joined to the Lord.

25 ᎿᎭᏉᏃ ᏆᏂᏆ ᏓᏌ ᏭᎶᏎ ᎤᏲᎸᏎ ᏐᎳ;

Then he went on to Tarsus, looking for Saul;

26 ᎤᏩᏛᎲᏃ ᎥᏖᎣᎩ ᎤᏘᏃᎴᎢ. ᎯᎠᏃ ᏄᎵᏍᏔᏁᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏑᏕᏘᏴᏛ ᎾᎿᎭᏧᎾᏁᎶᏗ ᎤᎾᏓᏡᎬ ᏓᏂᎳᏫᎨᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏂᏣᏖ ᏴᏫ ᏚᏁᏲᏁᎢ. ᎥᏖᎣᎩᏃ ᎢᎬᏱᏱ ᎠᏂᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎨᎪᏎᎴ ᎠᏃᎯᏳᎲᏍᎩ.

And when he had come across him, he took him to Antioch. And they were with the church there for a year, teaching the people; and the disciples were first given the name of Christians in Antioch.

27 ᎾᎯᏳᏃ ᏥᎷᏏᎵᎻ ᏅᏓᏳᏂᎶᏒᎯ ᎠᎾᏙᎴᎰᏍᎩ ᎤᏂᎷᏤ ᎥᏖᎣᎩ.

Now in those days prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.

28 ᎠᏏᏴᏫᏃ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎡᎩᏩ ᏧᏙᎢᏛ ᏕᎤᎴᏁᎢ, ᎠᏓᏅᏙ ᎤᏩᏔᏁ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏄᏩᏁᎴ ᎤᏣᏘ ᎤᎪᏄᎶᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᏂᎬᎾᏛᎢ; ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᏄᎵᏍᏔᏅᎩ ᎾᎯᏳ ᎦᎶᏗ ᏏᏌ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᎨᏒᎩ.

And one of them, named Agabus, said publicly through the Spirit that there would be serious need of food all over the earth: which came about in the time of Claudius.

29 ᎠᏃᎯᏳᎲᏍᎩᏃ ᎠᏂᏏᏴᏫᎭ ᏰᎵ ᎢᎬᏩᎾᏛᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏚᏄᎪᏔᏁ ᎤᎾᏓᏅᏍᏗᏱ ᎤᎾᎵᏍᏕᎸᏙᏗ ᎠᎾᎵᏅᏟ ᏧᏗᏱ ᎠᏁᎯ.

And the disciples, everyone as he was able, made a decision to send help to the brothers living in Judaea:

30 ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᏄᎾᏛᏁᎴᎢ, ᏫᏚᏂᏁᎴ ᏗᎨᎦᏁᎶᏗ ᏆᏂᏆ ᎠᎴ ᏐᎳ ᏚᎾᎨᏅᏕᎢ.

Which they did, sending it to the rulers of the church by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
