1 1161 There was 2258 a certain 5100 man 435 in 1722 Caesarea 2542 called 3686 Cornelius 2883, a centurion 1543 of 1537 the band 4686 called 2564 the Italian 2483 band,
2 A devout 2152 man, and 2532 one that feared 5399 God 2316 with 4862 all 3956 his 848 house 3624, which 5037 gave 4160 much 4183 alms 1654 to the people 2992, and 2532 prayed 1189 to God 2316 alway 1275.
3 He saw 1492 in 1722 a vision 3705 evidently 5320 about 5616 the ninth 1766 hour 5610 of the day 2250 an angel 32 of God 2316 coming in 1525 to 4314 him 846, and 2532 saying 2036 unto him 846, Cornelius 2883.
4 And 1161 when he looked 816 on him 846, he was 1096 afraid 1719, and 2532 said 2036, What 5101 is it 2076, Lord 2962? And 1161 he said 2036 unto him 846, Thy 4675 prayers 4335 and 2532 thine 4675 alms 1654 are come up 305 for 1519 a memorial 3422 before 1799 God 2316.
5 And 2532 now 3568 send 3992 men 435 to 1519 Joppa 2445, and 2532 call for 3343 one Simon 4613, whose 3739 surname is 1941 Peter 4074:
6 He 3778 lodgeth 3579 with 3844 one 5100 Simon 4613 a tanner 1038, whose 3739 house 3614 is 2076 by 3844 the sea side 2281: he 3778 shall tell 2980 thee 4671 what 5101 thou 4571 oughtest 1163 to do 4160.
7 And 1161 when 5613 the angel 32 which 3588 spake 2980 unto Cornelius 2883 was departed 565, he called 5455 two 1417 of his 848 household servants 3610, and 2532 a devout 2152 soldier 4757 of them that waited on 4342 0 him 846 continually 4342;
8 And 2532 when he had declared 1834 all these things 537 unto them 846, he sent 649 them 846 to 1519 Joppa 2445.
9 1161 On the morrow 1887, as they 1565 went on their journey 3596, and 2532 drew nigh 1448 unto the city 4172, Peter 4074 went up 305 upon 1909 the housetop 1430 to pray 4336 about 4012 the sixth 1623 hour 5610:
10 And 1161 he became 1096 very hungry 4361, and 2532 would 2309 have eaten 1089: but 1161 while they 1565 made ready 3903, he 846 fell 1968 into 1909 a trance 1611,
11 And 2532 saw 2334 heaven 3772 opened 455, and 2532 a certain 5100 vessel 4632 descending 2597 unto 1909 him 846, as 5613 it had been a great 3173 sheet 3607 knit 1210 at the four 5064 corners 746, and 2532 let down 2524 to 1909 the earth 1093:
12 Wherein 1722 3739 were 5225 all manner 3956 of fourfooted beasts 5074 of the earth 1093, and 2532 wild beasts 2342, and 2532 creeping things 2062, and 2532 fowls 4071 of the air 3772.
13 And 2532 there came 1096 a voice 5456 to 4314 him 846, Rise 450, Peter 4074; kill 2380, and 2532 eat 5315.
14 But 1161 Peter 4074 said 2036, Not so 3365, Lord 2962; for 3754 I have 5315 0 never 3763 eaten 5315 any thing 3956 that is common 2839 or 2228 unclean 169.
15 And 2532 the voice 5456 spake unto 4314 him 846 again 3825 1537 the second time 1208, What 3739 God 2316 hath cleansed 2511, that call 2840 0 not 3361 thou 4771 common 2840.
16 1161 This 5124 was done 1096 thrice 1909 5151: and 2532 the vessel 4632 was received up 353 again 3825 into 1519 heaven 3772.
17 Now 1161 while 5613 Peter 4074 doubted 1280 in 1722 himself 1438 what 5101 this vision 3705 which 3739 he had seen 1492 should mean 302 1498, behold 2400 2532, the men 435 which 3588 were sent 649 from 575 Cornelius 2883 had made enquiry 1331 for Simon's 4613 house 3614, and stood 2186 before 1909 the gate 4440,
18 And 2532 called 5455, and asked 4441 whether 1487 Simon 4613, which 3588 was surnamed 1941 Peter 4074, were lodged 3579 there 1759.
19 While 1161 Peter 4074 thought 1760 on 4012 the vision 3705, the Spirit 4151 said 2036 unto him 846, Behold 2400, three 5140 men 435 seek 2212 thee 4571.
20 Arise 450 therefore 235, and get thee down 2597, and 2532 go 4198 with 4862 them 846, doubting 1252 nothing 3367: for 1360 I 1473 have sent 649 them 846.
21 Then 1161 Peter 4074 went down 2597 to 4314 the men 435 which 3588 were sent 649 unto 4314 him 846 from 575 Cornelius 2883; and said 2036, Behold 2400, I 1473 am 1510 he whom 3739 ye seek 2212: what 5101 is the cause 156 wherefore 1223 3739 ye are come 3918?
22 And 1161 they said 2036, Cornelius 2883 the centurion 1543, a just 1342 man 435, and 2532 one that feareth 5399 God 2316, and 5037 of good report 3140 among 5259 all 3650 the nation 1484 of the Jews 2453, was warned from God 5537 by 5259 an holy 40 angel 32 to send 3343 for thee 4571 into 1519 his 848 house 3624, and 2532 to hear 191 words 4487 of 3844 thee 4675.
23 Then 3767 called he 1528 0 them 846 in 1528, and lodged 3579 them. And 1161 on the morrow 1887 Peter 4074 went away 1831 with 4862 them 846, and 2532 certain 5100 brethren 80 from 575 Joppa 2445 accompanied 4905 him 846.
24 And 2532 the morrow 1887 after they entered 1525 into 1519 Caesarea 2542. And 1161 Cornelius 2883 waited for 4328 them 846 2258, and had called together 4779 his 848 kinsmen 4773 and 2532 near 316 friends 5384.
25 And 1161 as 5613 Peter 4074 was 1096 coming in 1525, Cornelius 2883 met 4876 him 846, and fell down 4098 at 1909 his feet 4228, and worshipped 4352 him.
26 But 1161 Peter 4074 took 1453 0 him 846 up 1453, saying 3004, Stand up 450; I 2504 0 myself 846 also 2504 am 1510 a man 444.
27 And 2532 as he talked 4926 with him 846, he went in 1525, and 2532 found 2147 many 4183 that were come together 4905.
28 And 5037 he said 5346 unto 4314 them 846, Ye 5210 know 1987 how 5613 that it is 2076 an unlawful thing 111 for a man 435 that is a Jew 2453 to keep company 2853, or 2228 come unto 4334 one of another nation 246; but 2532 God 2316 hath shewed 1166 me 1698 that I should not 3367 0 call 3004 any 3367 man 444 common 2839 or 2228 unclean 169.
29 Therefore 1352 2532 came I 2064 unto you without gainsaying 369, as soon as I was sent for 3343: I ask 4441 therefore 3767 for what 5101 intent 3056 ye have sent for 3343 me 3165?
30 And 2532 Cornelius 2883 said 5346, Four 5067 days 2250 ago 575 I was 2252 fasting 3522 until 3360 this 5026 hour 5610; and 2532 at the ninth 1766 hour 5610 I prayed 4336 in 1722 my 3450 house 3624, and 2532, behold 2400, a man 435 stood 2476 before 1799 me 3450 in 1722 bright 2986 clothing 2066,
31 And 2532 said 5346, Cornelius 2883, thy 4675 prayer 4335 is heard 1522, and 2532 thine 4675 alms 1654 are had in remembrance 3415 in the sight 1799 of God 2316.
32 Send 3992 therefore 3767 to 1519 Joppa 2445, and 2532 call hither 3333 Simon 4613, whose 3739 surname is 1941 Peter 4074; he 3778 is lodged 3579 in 1722 the house 3614 of one Simon 4613 a tanner 1038 by 3844 the sea side 2281: who 3739, when he cometh 3854, shall speak 2980 unto thee 4671.
33 Immediately 1824 therefore 3767 I sent 3992 to 4314 thee 4571; and 5037 thou 4771 hast well 2573 done 4160 that thou art come 3854. Now 3568 therefore 3767 are 3918 0 we 2249 all 3956 here present 3918 before 1799 God 2316, to hear 191 all things 3956 that are commanded 4367 thee 4671 of 5259 God 2316.
34 Then 1161 Peter 4074 opened 455 his mouth 4750, and said 2036, Of 1909 a truth 225 I perceive 2638 that 3754 God 2316 is 2076 no 3756 respecter of persons 4381:
35 But 235 in 1722 every 3956 nation 1484 he that feareth 5399 him 846, and 2532 worketh 2038 righteousness 1343, is 2076 accepted 1184 with him 846.
36 The word 3056 which 3739 God sent 649 unto the children 5207 of Israel 2474, preaching 2097 peace 1515 by 1223 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547: (he 3778 is 2076 Lord 2962 of all 3956:)
37 That word 4487, I say, ye 5210 know 1492, which was published 1096 throughout 2596 all 3650 Judaea 2449, and began 756 from 575 Galilee 1056, after 3326 the baptism 908 which 3739 John 2491 preached 2784;
38 How 5613 God 2316 anointed 5548 Jesus 2424 of 575 Nazareth 3478 with the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 and 2532 with power 1411: who 846 3739 went about 1330 doing good 2109, and 2532 healing 2390 all 3956 that were oppressed 2616 of 5259 the devil 1228; for 3754 God 2316 was 2258 with 3326 him 846.
39 And 2532 we 2249 are 2070 witnesses 3144 of all things 3956 which 3739 he did 4160 both 5037 in 1722 the land 5561 of the Jews 2453, and 2532 in 1722 Jerusalem 2419; whom 3739 they slew 337 and hanged 2910 on 1909 a tree 3586:
40 Him 5126 God 2316 raised up 1453 the third 5154 day 2250, and 2532 shewed 1096 him 846 openly 1717 1325;
41 Not 3756 to all 3956 the people 2992, but 235 unto witnesses 3144 chosen before 4401 of 5259 God 2316, even to us 2254, who 3748 did eat 4906 and 2532 drink with 4844 him 846 after 3326 he 846 rose 450 from 1537 the dead 3498.
42 And 2532 he commanded 3853 us 2254 to preach 2784 unto the people 2992, and 2532 to testify 1263 that 3754 it is 2076 he 846 which 3588 was ordained 3724 of 5259 God 2316 to be the Judge 2923 of quick 2198 and 2532 dead 3498.
43 To him 5129 give 3140 0 all 3956 the prophets 4396 witness 3140, that through 1223 his 846 name 3686 whosoever 3956 believeth 4100 in 1519 him 846 shall receive 2983 remission 859 of sins 266.
44 While Peter 4074 yet 2089 spake 2980 these 5023 words 4487, the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 fell 1968 on 1909 all 3956 them which heard 191 the word 3056.
45 And 2532 they of 1537 the circumcision 4061 which believed 4103 were astonished 1839, as many as 3745 came with 4905 Peter 4074, because 3754 that on 1909 the Gentiles 1484 also 2532 was poured out 1632 the gift 1431 of the Holy 40 Ghost 4151.
46 For 1063 they heard 191 them 846 speak with 2980 tongues 1100, and 2532 magnify 3170 God 2316. Then 5119 answered 611 Peter 4074,
47 Can 3385 1410 any man 5100 forbid 2967 water 5204, that these 5128 should 907 0 not 3361 be baptized 907, which 3748 have received 2983 the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 as 2532 well as 2531 we 2249?
48 And 5037 he commanded 4367 them 846 to be baptized 907 in 1722 the name 3686 of the Lord 2962. Then 5119 prayed they 2065 him 846 to tarry 1961 certain 5100 days 2250.
