Open this scene in the reader →13And after they became silent, James answered, saying, “Brothers, listen to me.”
14Simeon has recounted how God first visited the Gentiles to take from them a people for his name.
15And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written:
16After these things I will return, and I will rebuild the fallen tent of David; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it,
17so that the remnant of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles on whom my name has been called, says the Lord, who does these things
18known from of old.
