1 * g1161 There was * g2258 g5713 a certain * g5100 man * g435 in * g1722 Caesarea * g2542 called * g3686 Cornelius * g2883, a centurion * g1543 of * g1537 the band * g4686 called * g2564 g5746 the Italian * g2483 band ,
2 A devout * g2152 man , and * g2532 one that feared * g5399 g5740 God * g2316 with * g4862 all * g3956 his * g846 house * g3624, which * g5037 gave * g4160 g5723 much * g4183 alms * g1654 to the people * g2992, and * g2532 prayed * g1189 g5740 to God * g2316 alway * g1275.
3 He saw * g1492 g5627 in * g1722 a vision * g3705 evidently * g5320 about * g5616 the ninth * g1766 hour * g5610 of the day * g2250 an angel * g32 of God * g2316 coming in * g1525 g5631 to * g4314 him * g846, and * g2532 saying * g2036 g5631 unto him * g846, Cornelius * g2883.
4 And * g1161 when he looked * g816 g5660 on him * g846, he was * g1096 g5637 afraid * g1719, and * g2532 said * g2036 g5627, What * g5101 is it * g2076 g5748, Lord * g2962? And * g1161 he said * g2036 g5627 unto him * g846, Thy * g4675 prayers * g4335 and * g2532 thine * g4675 alms * g1654 are come up * g305 g5627 for * g1519 a memorial * g3422 before * g1799 God * g2316.
5 And * g2532 now * g3568 send * g3992 g5657 men * g435 to * g1519 Joppa * g2445, and * g2532 call for * g3343 g5663 one Simon * g4613, whose * g3739 surname is * g1941 g5743 Peter * g4074:
6 He * g3778 lodgeth * g3579 g5743 with * g3844 one * g5100 Simon * g4613 a tanner * g1038, whose * g3739 house * g3614 is * g2076 g5748 by * g3844 the sea side * g2281: he * g3778 shall tell * g2980 g5692 thee * g4671 what * g5101 thou * g4571 oughtest * g1163 g5748 to do * g4160 g5721.
7 And * g1161 when * g5613 the angel * g32 which * g3588 spake * g2980 g5723 unto Cornelius * g2883 was departed * g565 g5627, he called * g5455 g5660 two * g1417 of his * g846 household servants * g3610, and * g2532 a devout * g2152 soldier * g4757 of them that waited on * g4342 him * g846 continually * g4342 g5723;
8 And * g2532 when he had declared * g1834 g5666 all these things * g537 unto them * g846, he sent * g649 g5656 them * g846 to * g1519 Joppa * g2445.
9 * g1161 On the morrow * g1887, as they * g1565 went on their journey * g3596 g5723, and * g2532 drew nigh * g1448 g5723 unto the city * g4172, Peter * g4074 went up * g305 g5627 upon * g1909 the housetop * g1430 to pray * g4336 g5664 about * g4012 the sixth * g1623 hour * g5610:
10 And * g1161 he became * g1096 g5633 very hungry * g4361, and * g2532 would * g2309 g5707 have eaten * g1089 g5664: but * g1161 while they * g1565 made ready * g3903 g5723, he * g846 fell * g1968 g5627 into * g1909 a trance * g1611,
11 And * g2532 saw * g2334 g5719 heaven * g3772 opened * g455 g5772, and * g2532 a certain * g5100 vessel * g4632 descending * g2597 g5723 unto * g1909 him * g846, as * g5613 it had been a great * g3173 sheet * g3607 knit * g1210 g5772 at the four * g5064 corners * g746, and * g2532 let down * g2524 g5746 to * g1909 the earth * g1093:
12 Wherein * g1722 * g3739 were * g5225 g5707 all manner * g3956 of fourfooted beasts * g5074 of the earth * g1093, and * g2532 wild beasts * g2342, and * g2532 creeping things * g2062, and * g2532 fowls * g4071 of the air * g3772.
13 And * g2532 there came * g1096 g5633 a voice * g5456 to * g4314 him * g846, Rise * g450 g5631, Peter * g4074; kill * g2380 g5657, and * g2532 eat * g5315 g5628.
14 But * g1161 Peter * g4074 said * g2036 g5627, Not so * g3365, Lord * g2962; for * g3754 I have * g5315 never * g3763 eaten * g5315 g5627 any thing * g3956 that is common * g2839 or * g2228 unclean * g169.
15 And * g2532 the voice * g5456 spake unto * g4314 him * g846 again * g3825 * g1537 the second time * g1208, What * g3739 God * g2316 hath cleansed * g2511 g5656, that call * g2840 not * g3361 thou * g4771 common * g2840 g5720.
16 * g1161 This * g5124 was done * g1096 g5633 thrice * g1909 * g5151: and * g2532 the vessel * g4632 was received up * g353 g5681 again * g3825 into * g1519 heaven * g3772.
17 Now * g1161 while * g5613 Peter * g4074 doubted * g1280 g5707 in * g1722 himself * g1438 what * g5101 this vision * g3705 which * g3739 he had seen * g1492 g5627 should mean * g302 * g1498 g5751, behold * g2400 g5628 * g2532, the men * g435 which * g3588 were sent * g649 g5772 from * g575 Cornelius * g2883 had made enquiry * g1331 g5660 for Simon's * g4613 house * g3614, and stood * g2186 g5627 before * g1909 the gate * g4440,
18 And * g2532 called * g5455 g5660, and asked * g4441 g5711 whether * g1487 Simon * g4613, which * g3588 was surnamed * g1941 g5746 Peter * g4074, were lodged * g3579 g5743 there * g1759.
19 While * g1161 Peter * g4074 thought * g1760 g5740 on * g4012 the vision * g3705, the Spirit * g4151 said * g2036 g5627 unto him * g846, Behold * g2400 g5628, three * g5140 men * g435 seek * g2212 g5719 thee * g4571.
20 Arise * g450 g5631 therefore * g235, and get thee down * g2597 g5628, and * g2532 go * g4198 g5737 with * g4862 them * g846, doubting * g1252 g5734 nothing * g3367: for * g1360 I * g1473 have sent * g649 g5758 them * g846.
21 Then * g1161 Peter * g4074 went down * g2597 g5631 to * g4314 the men * g435 which * g3588 were sent * g649 g5772 unto * g4314 him * g846 from * g575 Cornelius * g2883; and said * g2036 g5627, Behold * g2400 g5628, I * g1473 am * g1510 g5748 he whom * g3739 ye seek * g2212 g5719: what * g5101 is the cause * g156 wherefore * g1223 * g3739 ye are come * g3918 g5748?
22 And * g1161 they said * g2036 g5627, Cornelius * g2883 the centurion * g1543, a just * g1342 man * g435, and * g2532 one that feareth * g5399 g5740 God * g2316, and * g5037 of good report * g3140 g5746 among * g5259 all * g3650 the nation * g1484 of the Jews * g2453, was warned from God * g5537 g5681 by * g5259 an holy * g40 angel * g32 to send * g3343 g5664 for thee * g4571 into * g1519 his * g846 house * g3624, and * g2532 to hear * g191 g5658 words * g4487 of * g3844 thee * g4675.
23 Then * g3767 called he * g1528 them * g846 in * g1528 g5662, and lodged * g3579 g5656 them . And * g1161 on the morrow * g1887 Peter * g4074 went away * g1831 g5627 with * g4862 them * g846, and * g2532 certain * g5100 brethren * g80 from * g575 Joppa * g2445 accompanied * g4905 g5627 him * g846.
24 And * g2532 the morrow * g1887 after they entered * g1525 g5627 into * g1519 Caesarea * g2542. And * g1161 Cornelius * g2883 waited for * g4328 g5723 them * g846 * g2258 g5713, and had called together * g4779 g5671 his * g846 kinsmen * g4773 and * g2532 near * g316 friends * g5384.
25 And * g1161 as * g5613 Peter * g4074 was * g1096 g5633 coming in * g1525 g5629, Cornelius * g2883 met * g4876 g5660 him * g846, and fell down * g4098 g5631 at * g1909 his feet * g4228, and worshipped * g4352 g5656 him .
26 But * g1161 Peter * g4074 took * g1453 him * g846 up * g1453 g5656, saying * g3004 g5723, Stand up * g450 g5628; I * g2504 myself * g846 also * g2504 am * g1510 g5748 a man * g444.
27 And * g2532 as he talked * g4926 g5723 with him * g846, he went in * g1525 g5627, and * g2532 found * g2147 g5719 many * g4183 that were come together * g4905 g5761.
28 And * g5037 he said * g5346 g5713 unto * g4314 them * g846, Ye * g5210 know * g1987 g5736 how * g5613 that it is * g2076 g5748 an unlawful thing * g111 for a man * g435 that is a Jew * g2453 to keep company * g2853 g5745, or * g2228 come unto * g4334 g5738 one of another nation * g246; but * g2532 God * g2316 hath shewed * g1166 g5656 me * g1698 that I should not * g3367 call * g3004 g5721 any * g3367 man * g444 common * g2839 or * g2228 unclean * g169.
29 Therefore * g1352 * g2532 came I * g2064 g5627 unto you without gainsaying * g369, as soon as I was sent for * g3343 g5685: I ask * g4441 g5736 therefore * g3767 for what * g5101 intent * g3056 ye have sent for * g3343 g5662 me * g3165?
30 And * g2532 Cornelius * g2883 said * g5346 g5713, Four * g5067 days * g2250 ago * g575 I was * g2252 g5713 fasting * g3522 g5723 until * g3360 this * g5026 hour * g5610; and * g2532 at the ninth * g1766 hour * g5610 I prayed * g4336 g5740 in * g1722 my * g3450 house * g3624, and * g2532, behold * g2400 g5628, a man * g435 stood * g2476 g5627 before * g1799 me * g3450 in * g1722 bright * g2986 clothing * g2066,
31 And * g2532 said * g5346 g5748, Cornelius * g2883, thy * g4675 prayer * g4335 is heard * g1522 g5681, and * g2532 thine * g4675 alms * g1654 are had in remembrance * g3415 g5681 in the sight * g1799 of God * g2316.
32 Send * g3992 g5657 therefore * g3767 to * g1519 Joppa * g2445, and * g2532 call hither * g3333 g5669 Simon * g4613, whose * g3739 surname is * g1941 g5743 Peter * g4074; he * g3778 is lodged * g3579 g5743 in * g1722 the house * g3614 of one Simon * g4613 a tanner * g1038 by * g3844 the sea side * g2281: who * g3739, when he cometh * g3854 g5637, shall speak * g2980 g5692 unto thee * g4671.
33 Immediately * g1824 therefore * g3767 I sent * g3992 g5656 to * g4314 thee * g4571; and * g5037 thou * g4771 hast well * g2573 done * g4160 g5656 that thou art come * g3854 g5637. Now * g3568 therefore * g3767 are * g3918 we * g2249 all * g3956 here present * g3918 g5748 before * g1799 God * g2316, to hear * g191 g5658 all things * g3956 that are commanded * g4367 g5772 thee * g4671 of * g5259 God * g2316.
34 Then * g1161 Peter * g4074 opened * g455 g5660 his mouth * g4750, and said * g2036 g5627, Of * g1909 a truth * g225 I perceive * g2638 g5731 that * g3754 God * g2316 is * g2076 g5748 no * g3756 respecter of persons * g4381:
35 But * g235 in * g1722 every * g3956 nation * g1484 he that feareth * g5399 g5740 him * g846, and * g2532 worketh * g2038 g5740 righteousness * g1343, is * g2076 g5748 accepted * g1184 with him * g846.
36 The word * g3056 which * g3739 God sent * g649 g5656 unto the children * g5207 of Israel * g2474, preaching * g2097 g5734 peace * g1515 by * g1223 Jesus * g2424 Christ * g5547: (he * g3778 is * g2076 g5748 Lord * g2962 of all * g3956:)
37 That word * g4487, I say , ye * g5210 know * g1492 g5758, which was published * g1096 g5637 throughout * g2596 all * g3650 Judaea * g2449, and began * g756 g5671 from * g575 Galilee
