Deeds (Act) of Apostles 10:13-24

¹³And a voice was made to him, Rise thou, Peter, and slay, and eat.

¹⁴And Peter said, Lord, forbid it, for I never eat any common thing, and unclean.

¹⁵And again the second time the voice was made to him, That thing that God hath cleansed, say thou not unclean.

¹⁶And this thing was done by thrice; and anon the vessel was received again into heaven.

¹⁷And while that Peter doubted within himself, what the vision was that he saw, lo! the men, that were sent from Cornelius, sought the house of Simon, and stood at the gate.

¹⁸And when they had called, they asked if Simon, that is named Peter, had there harbour.

¹⁹And while Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Lo! three men seek thee.

²⁰Therefore rise thou, and go down, and go with them, and doubt thou nothing, for I sent them.

²¹And Peter came down to the men, and said, Lo! I am, whom ye seek; what is the cause, for which ye be come? or ye have come?

²²And they said, Cornelius, the centurion, a just man, and dreading God, and having good witnessing of all the folk of Jews, took answer of an holy angel, to call thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.

²³Therefore he led them in, and received in harbour; and that night they dwelled with him. And in the day pursuing he rose, and went forth with them; and some of the brethren followed him from Joppa or some of brethren from Joppa followed him, that they be witnesses to Peter.

²⁴And the tother day, he entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius abode them, with his cousins, and necessary friends, that were called together.
