Galatians
Galatians 2:9–10
9And recognizing the grace that I had been given, James, Cephas,b and John — those reputed to be pillars — gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised. 10They only asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.
