Acts 10
Act
10:1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a
centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
Act
10:2 a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who
gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed
to God.
Act
10:3 At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision
an angel of God coming to him, and saying to him, "Cornelius!"
Act
10:4 He, fastening his eyes on him, and being frightened, said,
"What is it, Lord?" He said to him, "Your prayers and
your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.
Act
10:5 Now send men to Joppa, and get Simon, who is surnamed Peter.
Act
10:6 He lodges with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the
seaside."
Act
10:7 When the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called
two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who
waited on him continually.
Act
10:8 Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
Act
10:9 Now on the next day as they were on their journey, and got
close to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray at about
noon.
Act
10:10 He became hungry and desired to eat, but while they were
preparing, he fell into a trance.
Act
10:11 He saw heaven opened and a certain container descending to
him, like a great sheet let down by four corners on the earth,
Act
10:12 in which were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth,
wild animals, reptiles, and birds of the sky.
Act
10:13 A voice came to him, "Rise, Peter, kill and eat!"
Act
10:14 But Peter said, "Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten
anything that is common or unclean."
Act
10:15 A voice came to him again the second time, "What God has
cleansed, you must not call unclean."
Act
10:16 This was done three times, and immediately the vessel was
received up into heaven.
Act
10:17 Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision
which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by
Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood before the
gate,
Act
10:18 and called and asked whether Simon, who was surnamed Peter,
was lodging there.
Act
10:19 While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him,
"Behold, three men seek you.
Act
10:20 But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I
have sent them."
Act
10:21 Peter went down to the men, and said, "Behold, I am he
whom you seek. Why have you come?"
Act
10:22 They said, "Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and
one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the nation of the Jews,
was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to
listen to what you say."
Act
10:23 So he called them in and lodged them. On the next day Peter
arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa
accompanied him.
Act
10:24 On the next day they entered into Caesarea. Cornelius was
waiting for them, having called together his relatives and his near
friends.
Act
10:25 When it happened that Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell
down at his feet, and worshiped him.
Act
10:26 But Peter raised him up, saying, "Stand up! I myself am
also a man."
Act
10:27 As he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered
together.
Act
10:28 He said to them, "You yourselves know how it is an
unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one
of another nation, but God has shown me that I shouldn't call any man
unholy or unclean.
Act
10:29 Therefore also I came without complaint when I was sent for. I
ask therefore, why did you send for me?"
Act
10:30 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,
Act
10:31 and said, 'Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to
the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
Act
10:32 Send therefore to Joppa, and summon Simon, who is surnamed
Peter. He lodges in the house of Simon a tanner, by the seaside. When
he comes, he will speak to you.'
Act
10:33 Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to
come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to
hear all things that have been commanded you by God."
Act
10:34 Peter opened his mouth and said, "Truly I perceive that
God doesn't show favoritism;
Act
10:35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness
is acceptable to him.
Act
10:36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching
good news of peace by Jesus Christ-he is Lord of all-
Act
10:37 that spoken word you yourselves know, which was proclaimed
throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which
John preached;
Act
10:38 even Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy
Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who
were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
Act
10:39 We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of
the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they also killed, hanging him on a
tree.
Act
10:40 God raised him up the third day, and gave him to be revealed,
Act
10:41 not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before
by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the
dead.
Act
10:42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that
this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the
dead.
Act
10:43 All the prophets testify about him, that through his name
everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins."
Act
10:44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit
fell on all those who heard the word.
Act
10:45 They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as
came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured
out on the Gentiles.
Act
10:46 For they heard them speaking in other languages and magnifying
God. Then Peter answered,
Act
10:47 "Can any man forbid the water, that these who have
received the Holy Spirit as well as we should not be baptized?"
Act
10:48 He commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.
Then they asked him to stay some days.
