>
10:1There was a certaine man in Cesarea, called Cornelius, a Centurion of ye band called the Italian band,
10:2A deuout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gaue much almes to the people, and prayed to God alway.
10:3He saw in a vision euidently, about the ninth houre of the day, an Angel of God comming in to him, and saying vnto him Cornelius.
10:4And when he looked on him, hee was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said vnto him, Thy praiers and thine almes are come vp for a memorial before God.
10:5And now send men to Ioppa, and call for one Simon, whose sirname is Peter.
10:6Hee lodgeth with one Simon a Tanner, whose house is by the Sea side; he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to doe.
10:7And when the Angel which spake vnto Cornelius, was departed, he called two of his houshold seruants, and a deuout souldier of them that waited on him continually.
10:8And when he had declared all these things vnto them, he sent them to Ioppa.
10:9On the morrow as they went on their iourney, and drew nigh vnto the citie, Peter went vp vpon the house to pray, about the sixth houre.
10:10And he became very hungry, and would haue eaten: But while they made ready, he fell into a traunce,
10:11And saw heauen opened, and a certaine vessell descending vnto him, as it had beene a great sheete, knit at the foure corners, and let downe to the earth:
10:12Wherein were all maner of foure footed beasts of the earth, and wilde beasts, and creeping things, and foules of the ayre.
10:13And there came a voyce to him, Rise, Peter: kill, and eate.
10:14But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I haue neuer eaten any thing that is common or vncleane.
10:15And the voice spake vnto him againe the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
10:16This was done thrise: & the vessel was receiued vp againe into heauen.
10:17Now while Peter doubted in himselfe what this vision which he had seene, should meane: behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius, had made inquirie for Simons house, and stood before the gate,
10:18And called, and asked whether Simon, which was sirnamed Peter, were lodged there.
10:19While Peter thought on the vision, the spirit said vnto him, Behold, three men seeke thee.
10:20Arise therefore, and get thee downe, and goe with them, doubting nothing: for I haue sent them.
10:21Then Peter went downe to the men, which were sent vnto him from Cornelius, and said, Behold, I am hee, whom ye seeke: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?
10:22And they saide, Cornelius the Centurion, a iust man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Iewes, was warned from God by an holy Angel, to send for thee into his house, and to heare words of thee.
10:23Then called he them in, and lodged them: And on the morrowe Peter went away with them, and certaine brethren from Ioppa accopanied him.
10:24And the morrow after they entred into Cesarea: and Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and neere friends.
10:25And as Peter was comming in, Cornelius met him, and fell downe at his feete, and worshipped him.
10:26But Peter tooke him vp, saying, Stand vp, I my selfe also am a man.
10:27And as he talked with him, hee went in, and found many that were come together.
10:28And he said vnto them, Ye know how that it is an vnlawfull thing for a man that is a Iewe, to keepe company or come vnto one of another nation: but God hath shewed me, that I should not call any man common or vncleane.
10:29Therfore came I vnto you without gainesaying, as soone as I was sent for. I aske therefore, for what intent ye haue sent for me.
10:30And Cornelius said, Foure daies agoe I was fasting vntill this houre, and at the ninth houre I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
10:31And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine almes are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
10:32Send therfore to Ioppa, and call hither Simon, whose sirname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a Tanner, by the Sea side, who when he cometh, shall speake vnto thee.
10:33Immediately therefore I sent to thee, and thou hast well done, that thou art come. Now therefore are we all heere present before God, to heare all things that are comanded thee of God.
10:34Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a trueth I perceiue that God is no respecter of persons:
10:35But in euery nation, he that feareth him, and worketh righteousnesse, is accepted with him.
10:36The word which God sent vnto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Iesus Christ (he is Lord of all.)
10:37That word (I say) you knowe which was published thorowout all Iudea, and began from Galilee, after the baptisme which Iohn preached:
10:38How God anointed Iesus of Nazareth with the holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the deuill: for God was with him.
10:39And we are witnesses of all things which hee did both in the land of the Iewes, and in Hierusalem, whom they slew and hanged on a tree,
10:40Him God raised vp the third day, and shewed him openly,
10:41Not to all the people, but vnto witnesses, chosen before of God, euen to vs who did eate and drinke with him after he rose from the dead.
10:42And he commanded vs to preach vnto the people, and to testifie that it is he which was ordeined of God to be the Iudge of quicke and dead.
10:43To him giue all the Prophets witnesse, that through his Name whosoeuer beleeueth in him, shall receiue remission of sinnes.
10:44While Peter yet spake these words, the holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
10:45And they of the circumcision which beleeued, were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was powred out the gift of the holy Ghost.
10:46For they heard them speake with tongues, and magnifie God. Then answered Peter,
10:47Can any man forbid water, that these should not bee baptized, which haue receiued the holy Ghost, as well as wee?
10:48And hee commanded them to be baptized in the Name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarie certaine dayes.

 

10:1There was a man at Cesarea, named Cornelius (a captayne of ye copany, which is called ye Italianysh)
10:2a deuoute man, & one that feared God wt all his house, & gaue moch almesse to ye people, and prayed God allwaye.
10:3The same sawe in a vision openly (aboute the nyenth houre of the daye) an angell of God entringe in to him, and sayenge vnto him: Cornelius.
10:4He loked vpon him, and was afrayed, and sayde: LORDE, what is it? He sayde vnto him: Thy prayers & thine allmesses are come vp in to remebraunce before God.
10:5And now sende men vnto Ioppa, & call for Simo, whose syrname is Peter,
10:6which is at lodginge with one Symon a tanner, whose house lyeth by ye see syde: he shal tell ye, what thou oughtest to do.
10:7And wha the angell which spake to Cornelius, was departed, he called two of his housholde seruauntes, & a deuoute soudyer, of the that wayted vpon him:
10:8and tolde them all, and sent the to Ioppa.
10:9On the nexte daye after whan these were goinge on their iourney, and came nye vnto the cite, Peter wente vp in to a chamber to praye aboute the sixte houre.
10:10And whan he was hogrie, he wolde haue eate. But whyle they made ready for him, he fell into a traunce,
10:11and sawe heaue open, and a vessell comynge downe vnto him, as it had bene a greate lynne clothe, knytt at the foure corners, and was let downe to ye earth,
10:12wherin were all maner of foure foted beestes of the earth, & wylde beestes, and wormes, and foules of the ayre.
10:13And there came a voyce vnto him: Ryse Peter, slaye, & eate.
10:14But Peter sayde: Oh no, LORDE, for I neuer ate eny commen or vncleane thinge.
10:15And the voyce spake vnto him agayne ye secode tyme: What God hath clensed, yt make not thou vncleane.
10:16This was done thryse. And ye vessell was receaued vp agayne in to heauen.
10:17But whyle Peter was combred in him selfe, what maner of vision this shulde be which he had sene, beholde, the men yt were sent from Cornelius, enquered after Simos house, and stode before the dore,
10:18and called, and axed whether Simon (whose syrname was Peter) were lodged there.
10:19Whyle Peter was musinge of the vision, the sprete sayde vnto him:beholde, the men seke the.
10:20Aryse therfore, and get the downe, & go with the, and doute not, for I haue sent them.
10:21Then wente Peter downe to the men, yt were sent vnto him from Cornelius, and sayde: lo, I am he whom ye seke: what is ye cause, wherfore ye are come?
10:22They sayde: Cornelius the captayne, a iust man and one that feareth God, and of good reporte amoge all the people of the Iewes, was warned by an holy angell, to sende for the in to his house, and to heare wordes of the.
10:23Then called he them in, and lodged them.The nexte daye after wente Peter forth with them, and certayne brethren of Ioppa bare him company.
10:24And ye daye folowinge came they to Cesarea. Cornelius wayted for the, and had called together his kynssfolkes and speciall frendes.
10:25And as it chaunced yt Peter came in, Cornelius mett him, and fell downe at his fete, & worshipped him.
10:26But Peter toke him vp, and sayde: Stonde vp, I am a man also.
10:27And as he talked wt him, he wente in, and founde many that were come together,
10:28and he sayde vnto them: Ye knowe, that it is not laufull for a man beynge a Iewe to ioyne him selfe or to come to a straunger. But God hath shewed me, yt I shulde call no ma comen or vncleane.
10:29Therfore haue I not douted to come, as soone as I was sent for. I axe you therfore, for what intent haue ye sent for me?
10:30Cornelius sayde: It is now foure dayes agoo, then fasted I, and at the nyenth houre I prayed in my house, and beholde, there stode a ma before me in a bryghte clothinge,
10:31and sayde: Cornelius, yi prayer is herde, and thine allmesse dedes are had in remebraunce iu the sighte of God.
10:32Sende therfore to Ioppa, and call for one Simon (whose syrname is Peter) which is at lodginge in ye house of Simon ye taner, by the see syde: ye same wha he commeth, shal speake vnto ye.
10:33Then sent I vnto the immediatly, and thou hast done well, that thou art come. Now are we all here presente before God, to heare all thinges that are commaunded the of God.
10:34Peter opened his mouth, & sayde: Now perceaue I of a trueth, that God hath no respecte of personnes,
10:35but in all people he yt feareth him, and worketh righteousnes, is accepted vnto him.
10:36Ye knowe of ye preachinge that God sent vnto the children of Israel, preachinge thorow Iesus Christ (which is LORDE ouer all)
10:37which preachinge was published thorow out all Iewry, and begane in Galile after ye baptyme that Ihon preached,
10:38how God anoynted the same Iesus of Nazareth with the holy goost and wt power, which wente aboute, & dyd good, and healed all those that were oppressed of the deuell, for God was with him.
10:39And we are witnesses of all that he dyd in the londe of the Iewes, & at Ierusalem. Whom they slewe, and hanged on tre.
10:40Him God raysed vp on the thirde daye, and caused him be openly shewed,
10:41not to all the people, but to ye chosen witnesses of God euen vnto vs, which ate & dronke with him, after he was rysen vp from the deed.
10:42And he commaunded vs to preach vnto the people, and to testifye, that it is he which is ordeyned of God a iudge of the lyuynge and of the deed.
10:43Of him beare all the prophetes wytnesse, that thorow his name all they yt beleue in him, shal receaue remyssion of synnes.
10:44Whyle Peter was yet speakynge these wordes, the holy goost fell vpo all the that herkened vnto the worde.
10:45And the faithfull of the circucision which came with Peter, were astonnyed, because that the gifte of ye holy goost was shed out also vpon the Heythen.
10:46For they herde that they spake with tunges, and magnified God. The answered Peter:
10:47Maye eny man forbydde water, that these shulde not be baptysed, which haue receaued the holy goost as well as we?
10:48And he commaunded them to be baptysed in the name of the LORDE. The prayed they him, that he wolde tary there certayne dayes.

10:15And eft the secounde tyme the vois was maad to him, That thing that God hath clensid, seye thou not vnclene.
10:16And this thing was don bi thries; and anoon the vessel was resseyued ayen.
10:17And while that Petre doutide with ynne hym silf, what the visioun was that he say, lo! the men, that weren sent fro Corneli, souyten the hous of Symount, and stoden at the yate.
10:18And whanne thei hadden clepid, thei axiden if Symount, that is named Petre, hadde there herbore.
10:19And while Petre thouyte on the visioun, the spirit seide to hym, Lo! thre men seken thee.
10:20Therfor ryse thou, and go doun, and go with hem, and doute thou no thing, for Y sente hem.
10:21And Petre cam doun to the men, and seide, Lo! Y am, whom ye seken; what is the cause, for which ye ben come?
10:22And thei seiden, Cornelie, the centurien, a iust man, and dredinge God, and hath good witnessyng of alle the folc of Jewis, took aunswere of an hooli aungel, to clepe thee in to his hous, and to here wordis of thee.

10:24And the other dai he entride in to Cesarie. And Cornelie abood hem, with hise cousyns, and necessarie freendis, that weren clepid togidere.
10:25And it was don, whanne Petre was come ynne, Corneli cam metynge hym, and felle doun at hise feet, and worschipide him.
10:26But Petre reiside hym, and seide, Aryse thou, also Y my silf am a man, as thou.
10:27And he spak with hym, and wente in, and foonde many that weren come togidere.
10:28And he seide to hem, Ye witen, how abhomynable it is to a Jewe, to be ioyned ether to come to an alien; but God schewide to me, that no man seye a man comyn, ethir vnclene.
10:29For which thing Y cam, whanne Y was clepid, with out douting. Therfor Y axe you, for what cause han ye clepid me?
10:30And Cornelie seide, To dai foure daies in to this our, Y was preiynge and fastynge in the nynthe our in myn hous. And lo! a man stood bifore me in a whijt cloth, and seide,
10:31Cornelie, thi preier is herd, and thin almesdedis ben in mynde in the siyt of God.
10:32Therfor sende thou in to Joppe, and clepe Symount, that is named Petre; this is herborid in the hous of Symount coriour, bisidis the see. This, whanne he schal come, schal speke to thee.
10:33Therfor anoon Y sente to thee, and thou didist wel in comynge to vs. `Now therfor we alle ben present in thi siyt, to here the wordis, what euer ben comaundid to thee of the Lord.
10:34And Petre openyde his mouth, and seide, In trewthe Y haue foundun, that God is no acceptor of persoones;

10:42And he comaundide to vs to preche to the puple, and to witnesse, that he it is, that is ordeyned of God domesman of the quyk and of deede.
10:43To this alle prophetis beren witnessing, that alle men that bileuen in hym, schulen resseyue remyssioun of synnes bi his name.
10:44And yit while that Petre spak these wordis, the Hooli Goost felde on alle that herden the word.
10:45And the feithful men of circumcisioun, that camen with Petre, wondriden, that also in to naciouns the grace of the Hooli Goost is sched out.
10:46For thei herden hem spekynge in langagis, and magnyfiynge God.
10:47Thanne Petre answeride, Whether ony man may forbede watir, that these ben not baptisid, that han also resseyued the Hooli Goost as we?
10:48And he comaundide hem to be baptisid in the name of the Lord Jhesu Crist. Thanne thei preieden hym, that he schulde dwelle with hem sum daies.
