Acts - Chapter: 10


10:1	There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the regiment called the Italian Regiment,
10:2	a devout man and one who reverenced God with all his household, who gave many charitable gifts to the people, and prayed to God always.
10:3	About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God coming in to him, and saying to him, "Cornelius!"
10:4	And when he looked at him, he was afraid, and said, "What is it, Lord?" So he said to him, "Your prayers and your charitable gifts have come up as a memorial before God.
10:5	And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon whose surname is Peter.
10:6	He is lodging with Simon, a tanner, whose house is beside the sea. He will tell you what you must do."
10:7	And when the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier from among those who waited on him continually.
10:8	So when he had explained all these things to them, he sent them to Joppa.
10:9	On the next day, as they went on their journey and drew near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour.
10:10	Then he became very hungry and wanted to eat; but while they were preparing, he fell into a trance
10:11	and saw heaven opened and a certain object just like a great sheet bound at the four corners, descending to him and let down to the earth.
10:12	In it were all kinds of four footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.
10:13	And a voice came to him, "Rise, Peter; kill and eat."
10:14	But Peter said, "Not so, Lord! Because I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean."
10:15	And a voice spoke to him again the second time, "What God has cleansed you must not call common."
10:16	This was done three times. And the object was taken up into heaven again.
10:17	Now while Peter wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate.
10:18	And they called and asked whether Simon, whose surname was Peter, was lodging there.
10:19	While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are seeking you.
10:20	Therefore arise, go down and go with them, doubting nothing; because I have sent them."
10:21	Then Peter went down to the men who had been sent to him from Cornelius, and said, "Behold, I am he whom you seek. What is the reason then you have come?"
10:22	And they said, "Cornelius the centurion, a just man, one who reverences God and has a good reputation among all the nation of the Jews, was advised from God through a holy angel to summon you to his house, and to hear words from you."
10:23	Then he invited them in and lodged them. On the next day Peter went away with them, and some brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
10:24	And the following day they entered into Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his relatives and close friends.
10:25	As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him.
10:26	But Peter lifted him up, saying, "Stand up; I myself am also a man."
10:27	And as he talked with him, he went in and found many who had come together.
10:28	Then he said to them, "You know how unlawful it is for a someone who is a Jew to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
10:29	Therefore I came to you without objection as soon as I was sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me?"
10:30	So 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, your prayer has been heard, and your charitable gifts are remembered in the sight of God.
10:32	Therefore send away to Joppa and call Simon here, whose surname is Peter. He is lodging in the house of one Simon, a tanner, beside the sea. When he comes, he will speak to you.'
10:33	So I sent to you immediately, and you have done well that you came. Now therefore, we are all present before God, to hear all the things that are commanded you from God."
10:34	Then Peter opened his mouth and said: "In truth I perceive that God shows no personal favoritism.
10:35	But in every nation whoever reverences Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.
10:36	The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ, He is Lord of all,
10:37	that word I speak of, you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:
10:38	how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because 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 hung on a tree and murdered.
10:40	Him God raised up on the third day, and showed Him openly,
10:41	not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us who ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.
10:42	And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead.
10:43	To Him all the prophets give witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins."
10:44	While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.
10:45	And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also.
10:46	Because they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then they responded to Peter,
10:47	"Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?"
10:48	And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days.


10:1	Futhermore there was a certaine man in Cesarea called Cornelius, a captaine of the band called the Italian band,
10:2	A deuoute man, and one that feared God with all his housholde, which gaue much almes to the people, and prayed God continually.
10:3	He sawe in a vision euidently (about the ninth houre of the day) an Angel of God comming in to him, and saying vnto him, Cornelius.
10:4	But when hee looked on him, hee was afrayd, and sayd, What is it, Lord? and he sayd vnto him, Thy prayers and thine almes are come vp into remembrance before God.
10:5	Nowe therefore send men to Ioppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter.
10:6	Hee lodgeth with one Simon a Tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to doe.
10:7	And when the Angel which spake vnto Cornelius, was departed, he called two of his seruants, and a souldier that feared God, one of them that waited on him,
10:8	And tolde them all things, and sent them to Ioppa.
10:9	On the morow as they went on their iourney, and drew neere vnto the citie, Peter went vp vpon the house to pray, about the sixt houre.
10:10	Then waxed hee an hungred, and would haue eaten: but while they made some thing ready, he fell into a trance.
10:11	And hee sawe heauen opened, and a certaine vessell come downe vnto him, as it had bene a great sheete, knit at the foure corners, and was let downe to the earth.
10:12	Wherein were all maner of foure footed beastes of the earth, and wilde beastes and creeping things, and foules of the heauen.
10:13	And there came a voyce to him, Arise, Peter: kill, and eate.
10:14	But Peter sayd, Not so, Lord: for I haue neuer eaten any thing that is polluted, or vncleane.
10:15	And the voyce spake vnto him againe the second time, The things that God hath purified, pollute thou not.
10:16	This was so done thrise: and the vessell was drawen vp againe into heauen.
10:17	Nowe while Peter douted in himselfe what this vision which he had seene, meant, beholde, the men which were sent from Cornelius, had inquired for Simons house, and stoode at the gate,
10:18	And called, and asked, whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
10:19	And while Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit sayde vnto him, Beholde, three men seeke thee.
10:20	Arise therefore, and get thee downe, and goe with them, and doute nothing: For I haue sent them.
10:21	Then Peter went downe to the men, which were sent vnto him from Cornelius, and sayd, Beholde, I am he whome ye seeke: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?
10:22	And they sayd, Cornelius the captaine, a iust man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Iewes, was warned from heauen by an holy Angel, to send for thee into his house, and to heare thy wordes.
10:23	Then called he them in, and lodged them, and the next day, Peter went foorth with them, and certaine brethren from Ioppa accompanied him.
10:24	And the day after, they entred into Cesarea. Nowe Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsemen, and special friends.
10:25	And it came to passe as Peter came in, that Cornelius met him, and fell downe at his feete, and worshipped him.
10:26	But Peter tooke him vp, saying, Stand vp: for euen I my selfe am a man.
10:27	And as he talked with him, he came in, and found many that were come together.
10:28	And he sayd vnto them, Ye know that it is an vnlawfull thing for a man that is a Iewe, to company, or come vnto one of another nation: but God hath shewed me, that I should not call any man polluted, or vncleane.
10:29	Therefore came I vnto you without saying nay, when I was sent for. I aske therefore, for what intent haue ye sent for me?
10:30	Then Cornelius sayd, Foure dayes agoe, about this houre, I fasted, and at the ninth houre I prayed in mine house, and beholde, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
10:31	And sayd, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine almes are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
10:32	Send therefore to Ioppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter (he is lodged in the house of Simon a Tanner by the sea side) who when he commeth, shall speake vnto thee.
10:33	Then sent I for thee immediately, and thou hast well done to come. Nowe therefore are we all here present before God, to heare all things that are commanded thee of God.
10:34	Then Peter opened his mouth, and sayd, Of a trueth I perceiue, that God is no accepter of persons.
10:35	But in euery nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousnesse, is accepted with him.
10:36	Ye know the worde which God hath sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Iesus Christ, which is Lord of all:
10:37	Euen the worde which came through all Iudea, beginning in Galile, after the baptisme which Iohn preached.
10:38	To wit, howe 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.
10:39	And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Iewes, and in Hierusalem, whom they slewe, hanging him on a tree.
10:40	Him God raysed vp the third day, and caused that he was shewed openly:
10:41	Not to all the people, but vnto the witnesses chosen before of God, euen to vs which did eate and drinke with him, after he arose from the dead.
10:42	And he commanded vs to preach vnto the people, and to testifie, that it is he that is ordained of God a iudge of quicke and dead.
10:43	To him also giue all the Prophets witnesse, that through his Name all that beleeue in him, shall receiue remission of sinnes.
10:44	While Peter yet spake these wordes, the holy Ghost fell on al them which heard the word.
10:45	So they of the circumcision which beleeued, were astonied, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was powred out the gift of the holy Ghost.
10:46	For they heard them speake with tongues, and magnifie God. Then answered Peter,
10:47	Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which haue receiued the holy Ghost, as well as we?
10:48	So he commanded them to be baptized in the Name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tary certaine dayes.


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.
