Acts 15:9-11
EasyEnglish Bible
9 He made no difference between them and us. When they believed in Jesus, he saved them. He made them clean inside.
10 So do not say that God has done a wrong thing. God has shown us that he accepts Gentiles when they believe in Jesus. If you make the Gentile believers obey the Law of Moses, that is like a heavy weight on their necks. Even we Jews and our ancestors could not carry that heavy weight. 11 God saves us who are Jews when we believe in Jesus. It is not because we obey the Law of Moses. It is because the Lord Jesus is kind to us. God saves Gentiles in the same way, when they believe in Jesus.’

Acts 15:9-11
New International Version
9 He did not discriminate between us and them,(A) for he purified their hearts by faith.(B) 10 Now then, why do you try to test God(C) by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke(D) that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace(E) of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
