Acts 10:20-29

²⁰but having risen, go down and go on with them, nothing doubting, because I have sent them;'

²¹and 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?'

²²And 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.'

²³Having 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,

²⁴and on the morrow they did enter into Caesarea; and Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his kindred and near friends,

²⁵and as it came that Peter entered in, Cornelius having met him, having fallen at his feet, did bow before him;

²⁶and Peter raised him, saying, 'Stand up; I also myself am a man;'

²⁷and talking with him he went in, and doth find many having come together.

²⁸And 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;

²⁹therefore also without gainsaying I came, having been sent for; I ask, therefore, for what matter ye did send for me?'
