Acts - Chapter: 11


11:1	And the apostles and the brethren who are in Judea heard that also the nations did receive the word of God,
11:2	and when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision were contending with him,
11:3	saying -- `Unto men uncircumcised thou didst go in, and didst eat with them!'
11:4	And Peter having begun, did expound to them in order saying,
11:5	`I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw in a trance a vision, a certain vessel coming down, as a great sheet by four corners being let down out of the heaven, and it came unto me;
11:6	at which having looked stedfastly, I was considering, and I saw the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the fowls of heaven;
11:7	and I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, slay and eat;
11:8	and I said, Not so, Lord; because anything common or unclean hath at no time entered into my mouth;
11:9	and a voice did answer me a second time out of the heaven, What God did cleanse, thou -- declare not thou common.
11:10	`And this happened thrice, and again was all drawn up to the heaven,
11:11	and, lo, immediately, three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Cesarea unto me,
11:12	and the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting, and these six brethren also went with me, and we did enter into the house of the man,
11:13	he declared also to us how he saw the messenger in his house standing, and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
11:14	who shall speak sayings by which thou shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.
11:15	`And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit did fall upon them, even as also upon us in the beginning,
11:16	and I remembered the saying of the Lord, how he said, John indeed did baptize with water, and ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit;
11:17	if then the equal gift God did give to them as also to us, having believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ, I -- how was I able to withstand God?'
11:18	And they, having heard these things, were silent, and were glorifying God, saying, `Then, indeed, also to the nations did God give the reformation to life.'
11:19	Those, indeed, therefore, having been scattered abroad, from the tribulation that came after Stephen, went through unto Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only;
11:20	and there were certain of them men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who having entered into Antioch, were speaking unto the Hellenists, proclaiming good news -- the Lord Jesus,
11:21	and the hand of the Lord was with them, a great number also, having believed, did turn unto the Lord.
11:22	And the account was heard in the ears of the assembly that `is' in Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent forth Barnabas to go through unto Antioch,
11:23	who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord,
11:24	because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith, and a great multitude was added to the Lord.
11:25	And Barnabas went forth to Tarsus, to seek for Saul,
11:26	and having found him, he brought him to Antioch, and it came to pass that they a whole year did assemble together in the assembly, and taught a great multitude, the disciples also were divinely called first in Antioch Christians.
11:27	And in those days there came from Jerusalem prophets to Antioch,
11:28	and one of them, by name Agabus, having stood up, did signify through the Spirit a great dearth is about to be throughout all the world -- which also came to pass in the time of Claudius Caesar --
11:29	and the disciples, according as any one was prospering, determined each of them to send for ministration to the brethren dwelling in Judea,
11:30	which also they did, having sent unto the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.


11:1	And the Apostles and the brethren that were thorowout Iewry harde saye that the hethen had also receaved the worde of God.
11:2	And when Peter was come vp to Ierusalem they of the circumcision reasoned wyth him
11:3	sayinge: Thou wentest in to men vncircumcised and atest with them.
11:4	Then Peter began and expounded ye thinge in order to the sayinge:
11:5	I was in the cyte of Ioppa prayinge and in a traunce I sawe a vision a certen vessell descende as it had bene a large lynnyn clothe let doune from hevin by the fower corners and it cam to me.
11:6	Into the which when I had fastened myn eyes I consydered and sawe fowerfoted beastes of ye erth and vermen and wormes and foules of the ayer.
11:7	And I herde a voyce sayinge vnto me: aryse Peter sley and eate.
11:8	And I sayd: God forbyd lorde for nothinge comen or vnclene hath at eny tyme entred into my mouth.
11:9	But the voyce answered me agayne from heven cout not thou those thinges come which god hath clensed.
11:10	And this was done thre tymes. And all were takin vp agayne into heven.
11:11	And beholde immediatly ther were thre men come vnto the housse where I was sent from Cesarea vnto me.
11:12	And the sprete sayde vnto me that I shuld go with them with out doutinge. Morover the sixe brethren accompanyed me: and we entred into the mas housse.
11:13	And he shewed vs how he had sene an angell in his housse which stod and sayde to him: Send men to Ioppa and call for Symon named also Peter:
11:14	he shall tell the wordes wherby both thou and all thyne housse shalbe saved.
11:15	And as I begane to preach ye holy goost fell on them as he dyd on vs at the begynninge.
11:16	Then came to my remembrauce ye wordes of the Lorde how he sayde: Iohn baptised with water but ye shalbe baptysed with the holy goost.
11:17	For as moche then as God gave the lyke gyftes as he dyd vnto vs when we beleved on the Lorde Iesus Christ: what was I that I shuld have with stonde God?
11:18	when they hearde this they helde their peace and gloryfied God sayinge: then hath God also to the gentyls graunted repentaunce vnto lyfe.
11:19	They which were scattryd abroade thorow the affliccion that arose aboute Steven walked thorow oute tyll they came vnto Phenices and Cypers and Antioche preachynge ye worde to no man but vnto the Iewes only.
11:20	Some of them were men of Cypers and Syrene which when they were come into Antioche spake vnto the Grekes and preched the Lorde Iesus.
11:21	And the honde of the Lorde was with them and a greate nombre beleved and turned vnto the Lorde.
11:22	Tydinges of these thinges came vnto ye eares of the congregacion which was in Ierusalem. And they sente forth Barnabas that he shuld go vnto Antioche.
11:23	Which when he was come and had sene the grace of God was glad and exhorted them all that with purpose of hert they wolde continually cleave vnto ye Lorde.
11:24	For he was a good man and full of the holy goost and of faythe: and moche people was added vnto the Lorde.
11:25	Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus for to seke Saul.
11:26	And when he had founde him he brought him vnto Antioche. And it chaunsed yt a whole yere they had their conversacion with the congregacio there and taught moche people: in so moche that the disciples of Antioche were the fyrst that were called Christen.
11:27	In those dayes came Prophetes fro Ierusalem vnto Antioche.
11:28	And ther stode vp one of them named Agabus and signified by the sprete that ther shuld be great derth throughoute all the worlde which came to passe in ye Emproure Claudius dayes.
11:29	Then the disciples every man accordinge to his abilite purposed to sende socoure vnto the brethren which dwelt in Iewry.
11:30	Which thinge they also dyd and sent it to the elders by the hondes 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.
