Acts - Chapter: 10


10:1	And there was a certain man in Cesarea, by name Cornelius, a centurion from a band called Italian,
10:2	pious, and fearing God with all his house, doing also many kind acts to the people, and beseeching God always,
10:3	he saw in a vision manifestly, as it were the ninth hour of the day, a messenger of God coming in unto him, and saying to him, `Cornelius;'
10:4	and he having looked earnestly on him, and becoming afraid, said, `What is it, Lord?' And he said to him, `Thy prayers and thy kind acts came up for a memorial before God,
10:5	and now send men to Joppa, and send for a certain one Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
10:6	this one doth lodge with a certain Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea; this one shall speak to thee what it behoveth thee to do.'
10:7	And when the messenger who is speaking to Cornelius went away, having called two of his domestics, and a pious soldier of those waiting on him continually,
10:8	and having declared to them all things, he sent them to Joppa.
10:9	And on the morrow, as these are proceeding on the way, and are drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up upon the house-top to pray, about the sixth hour,
10:10	and he became very hungry, and wished to eat; and they making ready, there fell upon him a trance,
10:11	and he doth behold the heaven opened, and descending unto him a certain vessel, as a great sheet, bound at the four corners, and let down upon the earth,
10:12	in which were all the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of the heaven,
10:13	and there came a voice unto him: `Having risen, Peter, slay and eat.'
10:14	And Peter said, `Not so, Lord; because at no time did I eat anything common or unclean;'
10:15	and `there is' a voice again a second time unto him: `What God did cleanse, thou, declare not thou common;'
10:16	and this was done thrice, and again was the vessel received up to the heaven.
10:17	And as Peter was perplexed in himself what the vision that he saw might be, then, lo, the men who have been sent from Cornelius, having made inquiry for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
10:18	and having called, they were asking if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, doth lodge here?
10:19	And Peter thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, `Lo, three men do seek thee;
10:20	but having risen, go down and go on with them, nothing doubting, because I have sent them;'
10:21	and Peter having come down unto the men who have been sent from Cornelius unto him, said, `Lo, I am he whom ye seek, what `is' the cause for which ye are present?'
10:22	And they said, `Cornelius, a centurion, a man righteous and fearing God, well testified to, also, by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely warned by a holy messenger to send for thee, to his house, and to hear sayings from thee.'
10:23	Having called them in, therefore, he lodged them, and on the morrow Peter went forth with them, and certain of the brethren from Joppa went with him,
10:24	and on the morrow they did enter into Cesarea; and Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his kindred and near friends,
10:25	and as it came that Peter entered in, Cornelius having met him, having fallen at `his' feet, did bow before `him';
10:26	and Peter raised him, saying, `Stand up; I also myself am a man;'
10:27	and talking with him he went in, and doth find many having come together.
10:28	And he said unto them, `Ye know how it is unlawful for a man, a Jew, to keep company with, or to come unto, one of another race, but to me God did shew to call no man common or unclean;
10:29	therefore also without gainsaying I came, having been sent for; I ask, therefore, for what matter ye did send for me?'
10:30	And Cornelius said, `Four days ago till this hour, I was fasting, and `at' the ninth hour praying in my house, and, lo, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
10:31	and he said, Cornelius, thy prayer was heard, and thy kind acts were remembered before God;
10:32	send, therefore, to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; this one doth lodge in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea, who having come, shall speak to thee;
10:33	at once, therefore, I sent to thee; thou also didst do well, having come; now, therefore, are we all before God present to hear all things that have been commanded thee by God.'
10:34	And Peter having opened his mouth, said, `Of a truth, I perceive that God is no respecter of persons,
10:35	but in every nation he who is fearing Him, and is working righteousness, is acceptable to Him;
10:36	the word that he sent to the sons of Israel, proclaiming good news -- peace through Jesus Christ (this one is Lord of all,)
10:37	ye -- ye have known; -- the word that came throughout all Judea, having begun from Galilee, after the baptism that John preached;
10:38	Jesus who `is' from Nazareth -- how God did anoint him with the Holy Spirit and power; who went through, doing good, and healing all those oppressed by the devil, because God was with him;
10:39	and we -- we are witnesses of all things that he did, both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem, -- whom they did slay, having hanged upon a tree.
10:40	`This one God did raise up the third day, and gave him to become manifest,
10:41	not to all the people, but to witnesses, to those having been chosen before by God -- to us who did eat with `him', and did drink with him, after his rising out of the dead;
10:42	and he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify fully that it is he who hath been ordained by God judge of living and dead --
10:43	to this one do all the prophets testify, that through his name every one that is believing in him doth receive remission of sins.'
10:44	While Peter is yet speaking these sayings, the Holy spirit fell upon all those hearing the word,
10:45	and those of the circumcision believing were astonished -- as many as came with Peter -- because also upon the nations the gift of the Holy Spirit hath been poured out,
10:46	for they were hearing them speaking with tongues and magnifying God.
10:47	Then answered Peter, `The water is any one able to forbid, that these may not be baptized, who the Holy Spirit did receive -- even as also we?'
10:48	he commanded them also to be baptized in the name of the Lord; then they besought him to remain certain days.


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.


10:1	There was a man at Cesarea, named Cornelius (a captayne of ye copany, which is called ye Italianysh)
10:2	a deuoute man, & one that feared God wt all his house, & gaue moch almesse to ye people, and prayed God allwaye.
10:3	The 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.
10:4	He 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.
10:5	And now sende men vnto Ioppa, & call for Simo, whose syrname is Peter,
10:6	which is at lodginge with one Symon a tanner, whose house lyeth by ye see syde: he shal tell ye, what thou oughtest to do.
10:7	And 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:
10:8	and tolde them all, and sent the to Ioppa.
10:9	On 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.
10:10	And whan he was hogrie, he wolde haue eate. But whyle they made ready for him, he fell into a traunce,
10:11	and 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,
10:12	wherin were all maner of foure foted beestes of the earth, & wylde beestes, and wormes, and foules of the ayre.
10:13	And there came a voyce vnto him: Ryse Peter, slaye, & eate.
10:14	But Peter sayde: Oh no, LORDE, for I neuer ate eny commen or vncleane thinge.
10:15	And the voyce spake vnto him agayne ye secode tyme: What God hath clensed, yt make not thou vncleane.
10:16	This was done thryse. And ye vessell was receaued vp agayne in to heauen.
10:17	But 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,
10:18	and called, and axed whether Simon (whose syrname was Peter) were lodged there.
10:19	Whyle Peter was musinge of the vision, the sprete sayde vnto him:beholde, the men seke the.
10:20	Aryse therfore, and get the downe, & go with the, and doute not, for I haue sent them.
10:21	Then 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?
10:22	They 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.
10:23	Then called he them in, and lodged them.The nexte daye after wente Peter forth with them, and certayne brethren of Ioppa bare him company.
10:24	And ye daye folowinge came they to Cesarea. Cornelius wayted for the, and had called together his kynssfolkes and speciall frendes.
10:25	And as it chaunced yt Peter came in, Cornelius mett him, and fell downe at his fete, & worshipped him.
10:26	But Peter toke him vp, and sayde: Stonde vp, I am a man also.
10:27	And as he talked wt him, he wente in, and founde many that were come together,
10:28	and 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.
10:29	Therfore 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?
10:30	Cornelius 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,
10:31	and sayde: Cornelius, yi prayer is herde, and thine allmesse dedes are had in remebraunce iu the sighte of God.
10:32	Sende 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.
10:33	Then 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.
10:34	Peter opened his mouth, & sayde: Now perceaue I of a trueth, that God hath no respecte of personnes,
10:35	but in all people he yt feareth him, and worketh righteousnes, is accepted vnto him.
10:36	Ye knowe of ye preachinge that God sent vnto the children of Israel, preachinge thorow Iesus Christ (which is LORDE ouer all)
10:37	which preachinge was published thorow out all Iewry, and begane in Galile after ye baptyme that Ihon preached,
10:38	how 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.
10:39	And we are witnesses of all that he dyd in the londe of the Iewes, & at Ierusalem. Whom they slewe, and hanged on tre.
10:40	Him God raysed vp on the thirde daye, and caused him be openly shewed,
10:41	not 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.
10:42	And 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.
10:43	Of him beare all the prophetes wytnesse, that thorow his name all they yt beleue in him, shal receaue remyssion of synnes.
10:44	Whyle Peter was yet speakynge these wordes, the holy goost fell vpo all the that herkened vnto the worde.
10:45	And 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.
10:46	For they herde that they spake with tunges, and magnified God. The answered Peter:
10:47	Maye eny man forbydde water, that these shulde not be baptysed, which haue receaued the holy goost as well as we?
10:48	And he commaunded them to be baptysed in the name of the LORDE. The prayed they him, that he wolde tary there certayne dayes.
