Acts 15:12-18
New American Standard Bible
12 All the people kept silent, and they were listening to Barnabas and Paul as they were (A)relating all the (B)signs and wonders that God had done through them among the Gentiles.
James’ Judgment
13 After they stopped speaking, [a](C)James responded, saying, “[b]Brothers, listen to me. 14 (D)Simeon has described how God first concerned Himself about taking a people for His name from among the Gentiles. 15 The words of (E)the Prophets agree with this, just as it is written:
16 ‘(F)After these things (G)I will return,
And I will rebuild the fallen [c]tabernacle of David,
And I will rebuild its ruins,
And I will restore it,
17 (H)So that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord,
And all the Gentiles [d](I)who are called by My name,’
18 (J)Says the Lord, who [e](K)makes these things known from long ago.
