Acts 16:2-4

New Matthew Bible

² The brethren of Lystra and of Iconium spoke well of Timothy. ³ Paul wanted him to go forth with him, and took and circumcised him because of the Jews that were in those quarters, for they all knew that his father was a Greek. ⁴ As they went through the towns, they delivered to them the decrees to keep, as resolved by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
