Acts - Chapter: 11


11:1	And the Apostles, and brethren that were in Iudea, heard that the Gentiles had also receiued the word of God.
11:2	And when Peter was come vp to Hierusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,
11:3	Saying, Thou wentest in to men vncircumcised, & didst eate with them.
11:4	But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order vnto them, saying,
11:5	I was in the citie of Ioppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision, a certaine vessell descend, as it had beene a great sheete, let downe from heauen by foure corners, and it came euen to me.
11:6	Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw foure footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and foules of the aire.
11:7	And I heard a voyce, saying vnto me, Arise Peter, slay, and eate.
11:8	But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or vncleane hath at any time entred into my mouth.
11:9	But the voyce answered me againe from heauen, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
11:10	And this was done three times: and all were drawen vp againe into heauen.
11:11	And behold, immediately there were three men already come vnto the house where I was, sent from Cesarea vnto me.
11:12	And the spirit bad me goe with them, nothing doubting: Moreouer, these sixe brethren accompanied me, and we entred into the mans house:
11:13	And he shewed vs how hee had seene an Angell in his house, which stood and said vnto him, Send men to Ioppa, and call for Simon, whose sirname is Peter:
11:14	Who shall tell thee words, wherby thou, and all thy house shal be saued.
11:15	And as I began to speake, the holy Ghost fell on them, as on vs at the beginning.
11:16	Then remembred I the word of the Lord, how that he said, Iohn indeede baptized with water: but ye shall be baptized with the holy Ghost.
11:17	Forasmuch then as God gaue them the like gift as hee did vnto vs, who beleeued on the Lord Iesus Christ: what was I that I could withstand God?
11:18	When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance vnto life.
11:19	Now they which were scattered abroad vpon the persecution that arose about Steuen, trauailed as farre as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none, but vnto the Iewes onely.
11:20	And some of them were men of Cyprus, and Cyrene, which when they were come to Antioch, spake vnto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Iesus.
11:21	And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number beleeued, and turned vnto the Lord.
11:22	Then tidings of these things came vnto the eares of the Church, which was in Hierusalem: and they sent foorth Barnabas, that hee should goe as farre as Antioch.
11:23	Who when hee came, and had seene the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleaue vnto the Lord.
11:24	For he was a good man, and full of the holy Ghost, and of faith: and much people was added vnto the Lord.
11:25	Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seeke Saul.
11:26	And when he had found him, he brought him vnto Antioch. And it came to passe, that a whole yeere they assembled themselues with the Church, and taught much people, and the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
11:27	And in these dayes, came Prophets from Hierusalem vnto Antioch.
11:28	And there stood vp one of them, named Agabus, and signified by the spirit, that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to passe in the dayes of Claudius Cesar.
11:29	Then the disciples, euery man according to his abilitie, determined to send reliefe vnto the brethren which dwelt in Iudea.
11:30	Which also they did, and sent it to the Elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.


11:1	The Apostles and the brethren that were in Iewrye, herde saye, that the Heythen also had receaued the worde of God.
11:2	And whan Peter was come vp to Ierusalem, they that were of the circucision, chode with him,
11:3	and sayde: Thou wentest in to men that are vncircumcysed, and hast eaten with them.
11:4	But Peter beganne, and expounded the thinge in order vnto the and sayde:
11:5	I was in ye cite of Ioppa prayege, and in a traunce I sawe a vision, a vessell commynge downe, as it had bene a greate lynnen clothe with foure corners, and let downe from heauen, and came vnto me.
11:6	Into the which I loked, and considered, and sawe foure foted beestes of the earth, and wylde beestes, and wormes, and foules of the ayre.
11:7	And I herde a voyce, which sayde vnto me: Ryse Peter, slaye, & eate.
11:8	But I sayde: Oh no, LORDE, for there neuer entred eny commen or vncleane thinge in to my mouth.
11:9	Neuertheles the voyce answered me agayne from heauen: What God hath clensed, that call not thou vncleane.
11:10	This was done thre tymes, and all was taken vp agayne in to heauen.
11:11	And beholde, immediatly stode there thre men before the dore of the house that I was in, sent from Cesarea vnto me.
11:12	But the sprete sayde vnto me, that I shulde go with the and doute nothinge. These sixe brethre also came with me, and we entred in to the mas house.
11:13	And he shewed vs, how he had sene an angell stondinge in his house, which sayde vnto him: Sende men to Ioppa, and call for Simon (whose syrname is Peter)
11:14	he shal tell ye wordes, wherby thou and all thy house shal be saued.
11:15	But whan I beganne to speake, the holy goost fell vpo them, like as vpon vs at ye begynnynge.
11:16	Then thoughte I vpon the worde of the LORDE, how he sayde: Ihon baptysed with water, but ye shalbe baptysed with ye holy goost.
11:17	For as moch then as God hath geuen them like giftes, as vnto vs, which beleue on the LORDE Iesus Christ, who was I, that I shulde be able to withstode God?
11:18	Whan they herde this, they helde their peace, and praysed God, and sayde: Then hath God also to the Heithen graunted repentaunce vnto life.
11:19	They that were scatred abrode thorow ye trouble yt rose aboute Steuen, walked on euerysyde vntyll Phenices, and Cipers, and Antioche, and spake the worde vnto no man but onely vnto ye Iewes.
11:20	Neuertheles some of the were men of Cipers and Cyren, which came to Antioche, and spake also vnto the Grekes, & preached the Gospell of the LORDE Iesu.

11:23	Which whan he was come thither, & sawe the grace of God, he was glad, and exorted them all, that with purpose of hert they wolde contynue in the LORDE.
11:24	For he was a good man, full of the holy goost and faith. And there was a greate multitude of people added vnto the LORDE.
