  • AC-10:1 There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a

  • centurion of



  • the band called the Italian [band],



  • AC-10:2 [A] devout [man], and one that feared God with all his

  • house, which



  • gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.



  • AC-10:3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of

  • the day an angel



  • of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.



  • AC-10:4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said,

  • What is it, Lord?



  • And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for

  • a memorial



  • before God.



  • AC-10:5 And now send men to Joppa, and call for [one] Simon,

  • whose surname is



  • Peter:



  • AC-10:6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by

  • the sea side: he



  • shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.



  • AC-10:7 And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was

  • departed, he called



  • two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that

  • waited on him



  • continually;



  • AC-10:8 And when he had declared all [these] things unto them,

  • he sent them to



  • Joppa.



  • AC-10:9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew

  • nigh unto the



  • city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth

  • hour:



  • AC-10:10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but

  • while they made



  • ready, he fell into a trance,



  • AC-10:11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending

  • unto him, as



  • it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down

  • to the earth:







  • AC-10:12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the

  • earth, and wild



  • beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.



  • AC-10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and

  • eat.



  • AC-10:14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten

  • any thing that



  • is common or unclean.



  • AC-10:15 And the voice [spake] unto him again the second time,

  • What God hath



  • cleansed, [that] call not thou common.



  • AC-10:16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up

  • again into



  • heaven.



  • AC-10:17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision

  • which he had seen



  • should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had

  • made inquiry



  • for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,



  • AC-10:18 And called, and asked whether Simon, which was

  • surnamed Peter, were



  • lodged there.



  • AC-10:19 While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said

  • unto him, Behold,



  • three men seek thee.



  • AC-10:20 Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them,

  • doubting



  • nothing: for I have sent them.



  • AC-10:21 Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto

  • him from



  • Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what [is] the

  • cause



  • wherefore ye are come?



  • AC-10:22 And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man,

  • and one that



  • feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews,

  • was warned



  • from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and

  • to hear words of



  • thee.



  • AC-10:23 Then called he them in, and lodged [them]. And on the

  • morrow Peter



  • went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied

  • him.



  • AC-10:24 And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And

  • Cornelius waited



  • for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.



  • AC-10:25 And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and

  • fell down at his



  • feet, and worshipped [him].



  • AC-10:26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also

  • am a man.



  • AC-10:27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many

  • that were come



  • together.



  • AC-10:28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an

  • unlawful thing for a



  • man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another

  • nation; but God



  • hath showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.



  • AC-10:29 Therefore came I [unto you] without gainsaying, as

  • soon as I was sent



  • for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?



  • AC-10:30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until

  • this hour; and



  • at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood

  • before me in



  • bright clothing,



  • AC-10:31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine

  • alms are had in



  • remembrance in the sight of God.



  • AC-10:32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose

  • surname is



  • Peter; he is lodged in the house of [one] Simon a tanner by the

  • sea side: who,



  • when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.



  • AC-10:33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast

  • well done that



  • thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God,

  • to hear all



  • things that are commanded thee of God.



  • AC-10:34 Then Peter opened [his] mouth, and said, Of a truth I

  • perceive that



  • God is no respecter of persons:



  • AC-10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh

  • righteousness,



  • is accepted with him.



  • AC-10:36 The word which [God] sent unto the children of Israel,

  • preaching



  • peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)



  • AC-10:37 That word, [I say], ye know, which was published

  • throughout all



  • Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John

  • preached;



  • AC-10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost

  • and with



  • power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were

  • oppressed of the



  • devil; for God was with him.



  • AC-10:39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both

  • in the land of



  • the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:



  • AC-10:40 Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly;



  • AC-10:41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen

  • before of God,



  • [even] to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from

  • the dead.



  • AC-10:42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to

  • testify that it



  • is he which was ordained of God [to be] the Judge of quick and

  • dead.



  • AC-10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his

  • name whosoever



  • believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.



  • AC-10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell

  • on all them



  • which heard the word.



  • AC-10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were

  • astonished, as many



  • as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured

  • out the gift



  • of the Holy Ghost.



  • AC-10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify

  • God. Then



  • answered Peter,



  • AC-10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be

  • baptized, which



  • have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?



  • AC-10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of

  • the Lord. Then



  • prayed they him to tarry certain days.
