1 ✡15:1: Pries 12:3Some Jew guys dat follow Jesus come from Judea to Antiok an dey teach da braddahs an sistahs. Dey tell, “If you no cut skin jalike Moses wen tell oua ancesta guys fo do, you no can get outa da bad kine stuff you stay do.” 2 Paul an Barnabas no take wat dey tell an make one big argue agains all dat. Cuz a dat, da Antiok church leadas pick Paul an Barnabas an some odda guys dat trus Jesus. Dey sen um Jerusalem side fo talk bout dis cut skin stuff wit da guys Jesus wen sen all ova, an wit da older Jerusalem leadas.

3 Da Antiok church guys sen um. Dey stop by Fonecia an Samaria. Dey tell all da braddahs an sistahs dea, “Get plenny peopo Antiok side dat trus Jesus, an dey not Jew guys.” Az why all da braddahs an sistahs feel real good inside wen dey hear all dat. 4 Wen Paul an Barnabas guys come Jerusalem, da peopo dat come togedda fo church, an da guys Jesus wen sen all ova, an da older leadas, dey all show dem aloha. An Paul an Barnabas tell um all da stuff God do wit dem. 5 But some a da Pharisee guys dat trus da Good Stuff Bout Jesus stan up an tell, “Da guys dass not Jew guys, no matta dey trus Jesus, dey gotta cut skin too an do all da odda stuff Moses wen write down inside da Rules.”

6 Da guys Jesus wen sen all ova an da older leadas come togedda fo talk bout dat. 7 ✡15:7: JGuys 10:1-43Dey talk long time. Den Peter stan up an tell, “Braddahs, you know dat befo time God pick me fo go tell da peopo dass not Jew guys da Good Stuff Bout Jesus fo dem trus him. 8 ✡15:8: JGuys 10:44; 2:4God, he know wat us guys tink.

How come you guys put heavy kine rules on top da guys dass not Jew but stay tight wit Jesus? You guys know dat us guys an oua ancesta guys no can follow all dose rules. 11 No ways can! We trus dat we get outa da bad kine stuff we do, but az not cuz we do wat da Rules tell us fo do. Az cuz Jesus, Da One In Charge, do plenny good tings fo us guys, jalike he do fo da peopo dass not Jew guys.”

12 All da guys come quiet an lissen wat Paul an Barnabas tell bout all da awesome stuff God do fo show his powa wen dey stay wit da peopo dass not Jew guys. 13 Wen dey pau talk, James tell, “Braddahs, lissen up. 14 Simon Peter wen tell us bout da time God show dat he take kea da peopo dass not Jew guys, cuz he pick some peopo fo come his guys from da guys dass not Jews. 15 Da guys dat wen talk fo God long time befo time, dey tell da same ting.

19 An James tell dis too: “Dis how I figga. Mo betta we no make rules dat goin make um mo hard fo da diffren peopos dass not Jew guys fo trus God. 20 ✡15:20 a: Outa 34:15-17; b: Pries 18:6-23; c: Pries 17:10-16Mo betta we write um one letta fo help da Jews an da odda peopo come togedda fo tell um:

21 “Cuz da Rules Moses wen write down, get peopo teach dat stuff in all da towns from long time befo time, an dey read um in all da Jew churches ery Res Day.”

22 Den da guys Jesus wen sen all ova, an da older leadas, an all da Jerusalem church guys, dey pick some a dea guys fo sen um Antiok side wit Paul an Barnabas. Dey pick Judas Barsabbas, an Silas, two guys dat lead oua braddahs an sistahs. 23 Dey sen dis letta wit dem:

Dey tell all da church guys fo come togedda an dey give um da letta. 31 Da peopo read um an dey come good inside, cuz da letta kokua dem. 32 Judas an Silas, dey talk fo God. So dey kokua da braddahs an sistahs fo come strong an help um trus God moa. 33 Dey stay dea long time, an den da braddahs sen um back ova hea Jerusalem side wit aloha fo dem go by da guys dat wen sen um befo time. 34 [But Silas like stay ova dea.] 35 An Paul an Barnabas stay inside Antiok town. Dem an plenny odda guys, dey teach wat Da One In Charge, Jesus, tell, an dey tell da Good Stuff From God.

36 Afta long time Paul tell Barnabas, “We go back an stay wit da braddahs an sistahs in all da towns wea we wen teach wat Da One In Charge tell fo know how dey stay.” 37 Barnabas like take John Mark wit dem. 38 ✡15:38: JGuys 13:13But Paul no like take um, cuz John Mark wen go way from dem befo time in Pamfylia, an neva work wit dem from dat time. 39 Paul an Barnabas make argue plenny bout dat.
