G2532–καί–kai

All the multitude kept silence, and they listened to Barnabas and Paul reporting what signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them.

καὶ kai “And”

'After these things I will return. I will again build the tent of David, which has fallen. I will again build its ruins. I will set it up,

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

That the rest of men may seek after the Lord; All the Gentiles who are called by my name, Says the Lord, who does all these things.

but that we write to them that they abstain from the pollution of idols, from sexual immorality, from what is strangled, and from blood.

They wrote these things by their hand: "The apostles, the elders, and the brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: greetings.

Because we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, 'You must be circumcised and keep the law,' to whom we gave no commandment;

καὶ kai “and”

it seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

καὶ kai “and”

We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves will also tell you the same things by word of mouth.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no greater burden on you than these necessary things:

καὶ kai “and”

that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality, from which if you keep yourselves, it will be well with you. Farewell."

The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
