Acts 10:29-45

²⁹Therefore I came to you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?

³⁰And 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,

³¹And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

³²Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he lodgeth in the house of one Simon a tanner, by the sea-side: who, when he cometh, will speak to thee.

³³Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou hast come. Now therefore we are all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee from God.

³⁴Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, In truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

³⁵But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

³⁶The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)

³⁷That word, I say , ye know, which was published throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

³⁸That God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.

³⁹And we are witnesses of all things which he did, both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree.

⁴⁰Him God raised the third day, and showed him openly;

⁴¹Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

⁴²And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was ordained by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead.

⁴³To him give all the prophets testimony, that through his name whoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

⁴⁴While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them who heard the word.

⁴⁵And they of the circumcision who believed, were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.
