| 10:1 | There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 10:5 | And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter: |
| 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. |
| 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; |
| 10:8 | And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa. |
| 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: |
| 10:10 | And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, |
| 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: |
| 10:12 | Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. |
| 10:13 | And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. |
| 10:14 | But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. |
| 10:15 | And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. |
| 10:16 | This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven. |
| 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 enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate, |
| 10:18 | And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there. |
| 10:19 | While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. |
| 10:20 | Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them. |
| 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? |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 10:24 | And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and he had called together his kinsmen and near friends. |
| 10:25 | And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him. |
| 10:26 | But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. |
| 10:27 | And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together. |
| 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 shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean. |
| 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? |
| 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, |
| 10:31 | And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 10:34 | Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: |
| 10:35 | But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. |
| 10:36 | The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:) |
| 10:37 | That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached; |
| 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. |
| 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: |
| 10:40 | Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly; |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 10:43 | To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. |
| 10:44 | While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. |
| 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. |
| 10:46 | For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, |
| 10:47 | Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? |
| 10:48 | And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. |

| 10:24 | και τη επαυριον εισηλθον εις την καισαρειαν ο δε κορνηλιος ην προσδοκων αυτους συγκαλεσαμενος τους συγγενεις αυτου και τους αναγκαιους φιλους |
| 10:25 | ως δε εγενετο εισελθειν τον πετρον συναντησας αυτω ο κορνηλιος πεσων επι τους ποδας προσεκυνησεν |
| 10:26 | ο δε πετρος αυτον ηγειρεν λεγων αναστηθι καγω αυτος ανθρωπος ειμι |

| 10:43 | τουτω παντες οι προφηται μαρτυρουσιν αφεσιν αμαρτιων λαβειν δια του ονοματος αυτου παντα τον πιστευοντα εις αυτον |
| 10:44 | ετι λαλουντος του πετρου τα ρηματα ταυτα επεπεσεν το πνευμα το αγιον επι παντας τους ακουοντας τον λογον |

| 10:1 | Ther was a certayne man in Cesarea called Cornelius a captayne of ye soudiers of Italy |
| 10:2 | a devoute man and one yt feared God wt all his housholde which gave moche almes to the people and prayde God alwaye. |
| 10:3 | The same man sawe in a vision evydetly aboute ye nynthe houre of ye daye an angell of god comynge into him and sayinge vnto him: Cornelius. |
| 10:4 | When he looked on him he was afrayde and sayde: what is it lorde? He sayde vnto him. Thy prayers and thy almeses ar come vp into remembraunce before God. |
| 10:5 | And now sende men to Ioppa and call for one Simon named also Peter. |
| 10:6 | He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner whose housse is by ye see syde. He shall tell the what thou oughtest to doo. |
| 10:7 | When the angell which spake vnto Cornelius was departed he called two of his housholde servauntes and a devoute soudier of them that wayted on him |
| 10:8 | and tolde them all the mater and sent them to Ioppa. |
| 10:9 | On the morowe as they wet on their iorney and drewe nye vnto the cite Peter went vp into the toppe of ye housse to praye aboute the .vi. houre. |
| 10:10 | Then wexed he an hongred and wolde have eate. But whyll they made redy. He fell into a trauce |
| 10:11 | and sawe heven opened and a certayne vessell come doune vnto him as it had bene a greate shete knyt at the .iiii. corners and was let doune to the erth |
| 10:12 | where in wer all maner of .iiii. foted beastes of the erth and vermen and wormes and foules of the ayer. |
| 10:13 | And ther came a voyce to him: ryse Peter kyll and eate. |
| 10:14 | But Peter sayde: God forbyd Lorde for I have never eaten eny thinge that is comen or vnclene. |
| 10:15 | And the voyce spake vnto him agayne the seconde tyme: what God hath clensed that make thou not comen. |
| 10:16 | This was done thryse and the vessell was receaved vp agayne into heven. |
| 10:17 | Whyle Peter mused in him selfe what this vision which he had sene meant beholde the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquirance for Simons housse and stode before the dore. |
| 10:18 | And called out won and axed whether Simon which was also called Peter were lodged there. |
| 10:19 | Whyll Peter thought on this vision the sprete sayde vnto him: Beholde men seke the: |
| 10:20 | aryse therfore get the doune and goo with them and doute not. For I have sent them. |
| 10:21 | Peter went doune to ye men which were sent vnto him from Cornelius and sayde Beholde I am he whom ye seke what is the cause wherfore ye are come? |
| 10:22 | And they sayde vnto him: Cornelius the captayne a iust man and won that feareth God and of good reporte amonge all the people of the Iewes was warned by an holy angell to sende for the into his housse and to heare wordes of the. |
| 10:23 | Then called he them in and lodged them.And on ye morowe Peter wet awaye with them and certayne brethren from Ioppa accompanyed hym. |
| 10:24 | And the thyrd daye entred they into Cesaria. And Cornelius wayted for them and had called to gether his kynsmen and speciall frendes. |
| 10:25 | And as it chaunsed Peter to come in Cornelius met hym and fell doune at his fete and worshipped hym. |
| 10:26 | But Peter toke him vp sayinge: stonde vp: for evyn I my silfe am a ma. |
| 10:27 | And as he talked with him he cam in and founde many that were come to gether. |
| 10:28 | And he sayde vnto them: Ye do knowe how that yt ys an vnlawfull thynge for a man that is a Iewe to company or come vnto an alient: But god hath shewed me that I shuld not call eny man commen or vnclene: |
| 10:29 | therfore came I vnto you with oute sayege naye assone as I was sent for. I axe therfore for what intent have ye sent for me? |
| 10:30 | And Cornelius sayde: This daye now .iiii. dayes I fasted and at the nynthe houre I prayde in my housse: and beholde a man stode before me in bright clothynge |
| 10:31 | and sayde: Cornelius thy prayer is hearde and thyne almes dedes are had in remembraunce in the sight of God. |
| 10:32 | Sende therfore to Ioppa and call for Simon which is also called Peter. He is lodged in the housse of one Simon a tanner by the see syde ye wich assone as he is come shall speake vnto ye. |
| 10:33 | Then sent I for ye immediatly and thou hast well done for to come. Now are we all here present before god to heare all thynges yt are commaunded vnto the of God. |
| 10:34 | Then Peter opened his mouth and sayde: Of a trueth I perseave that God is not parciall |
| 10:35 | but in all people he that feareth him and worketh rightewesnes is accepted with him. |
| 10:36 | Ye knowe the preachynge that God sent vnto the chyldren of Israel preachinge peace by Iesus Christe (which is Lorde over all thinges): |
| 10:37 | Which preachinge was published thorow oute all Iewrye and begane in Galile after the baptyme which Iohn preached |
| 10:38 | how God had annoynted Iesus of Nazareth with the holy goost and with power which Iesus went aboute doinge good and healynge all yt were oppressed of the develles for God was with him. |
| 10:39 | And we are witnesses of all thinges which he dyd in the londe of the Iewes and at Ierusalem whom they slew and honge on tree. |
| 10:40 | Him God reysed vp ye thyrde daye and shewed him openly |
| 10:41 | not to all the people but vnto vs witnesses chosyn before of God which ate and dronke with him after he arose from deeth. |
| 10:42 | And he comaunded vs to preache vnto the people and testifie that it is he that is ordened of God a iudge of quycke and deed. |
| 10:43 | To him geve all the Prophetes witnes that thorowe his name shall receave remission of synnes all that beleve in him. |
| 10:44 | Whyle Peter yet spake these wordes the holy gost fell on all them which hearde the preachinge. |
| 10:45 | And they of ye circucision which beleved were astonyed as many as came wt Peter because that on the Gentyls also was sheed oute ye gyfte of the holy gost. |
| 10:46 | For they hearde them speake with tonges and magnify God. Then answered Peter: |
| 10:47 | can eny man forbyd water that these shuld not be baptised which have receaved the holy goost as well as we? |
| 10:48 | And he comaunded them to be baptysed in the name of the Lorde. Then prayde they him to tary a feawe dayes. |
