Acts 10:26-47 in American Standard Version (1901)

26 But Peter raised him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and findeth many come together:
28 and he said unto them, Ye yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to join himself or come unto one of another nation; and yet unto me hath God showed that I should not call any man common or unclean:
29 wherefore also I came without gainsaying, when I was sent for. I ask therefore with what intent ye sent for me.
30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago, until this hour, I was keeping the ninth hour of prayer in my house; and behold, a man stood before me in bright apparel,
31 and saith, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call unto thee Simon, who is surnamed Peter; he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.
33 Forthwith therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to hear all things that have been commanded thee of the Lord.
34 And Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is acceptable to him.
36 The word which he sent unto the children of Israel, preaching good tidings of peace by Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all)—
37 that saying ye yourselves know, which was published throughout all Judæa, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 even Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom also they slew, hanging him on a tree.
40 Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,
41 not to all the people, but unto witnesses that were chosen before of God, even to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
42 And he charged us to preach unto the people, and to testify that this is he who is ordained of God to be the Judge of the living and the dead.
43 To him bear all the prophets witness, that through his name every one that believeth on him shall receive remission of sins.
44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them that heard the word.
45 And they of the circumcision that believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
47 Can any man forbid the water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?

Acts 10:26-47 in King James (Authorized) Version

26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
30 And 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,
31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.

34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
37 That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judæa, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
39 And 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:
40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;
41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

Acts 10:26-47 in Translation for Translators

26 But Peter grasped Cornelius by the hand and lifted him to his feet. He said, “Stand up! Do not revere/worship me I myself am only human, like you!”
27 While he was talking to Cornelius, Peter and the others entered a large room inside the house. Peter saw that many people had gathered together there.
28 Then Peter said to them, “You all know that any of us Jews think we are disobeying our Jewish laws if we (exc) associate with a non-Jewish person or if we even visit him. However, God has shown me in a vision that I should not say about anyone that God will not accept him.
29 So when you sent some men to ask me to come here, I came right away. I did not say that I could not go with non-Jewish people. So, please tell me, why have you asked me to come here?”
30 Cornelius replied, “About this time four days ago I was praying to God in my house, as I regularly do at three o'clock in the afternoon. Suddenly a man whose clothes shone brightly stood in front of me,
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, when you (sg) have prayed, you have been heard by God {God has heard when you (sg) have prayed to him}. He has also noticed that you have often given money to help poor people, and he is pleased with that.
32 So now, send messengers to go to Joppa, in order to ask Simon whose other name is Peter to come here. He is staying near the ocean in a house that belongs to another man named Simon, who makes leather. When Simon Peter comes, he will tell you a message from God.’
33 So I immediately sent some men who asked you (sg) to come here, and I certainly thank you for coming. Now we (exc) all are gathered here, knowing that God is with us, in order to hear all the things that the Lord God has commanded you to say. So please speak to us.”
34 So Peter began to speak MTY to them. He said, “ Now I understand that it is true that God does not favor only certain groups of people.
35 Instead, from every group of people he accepts everyone who honors him and who does what pleases him.
36 You know the message that God sent to us Israelis. He proclaimed to us the good news that he would cause people to have peace with him because of what Jesus Christ has done. This Jesus is Lord not only over us Israelis. He is also the Lord who rules over all people.
37 You know what he did throughout the land of Judea, beginning in Galilee. He began to do those things after John had been proclaiming to people that they should turn away from their sinful behavior before he baptized them.
38 You know that God gave MTY his Holy Spirit to Jesus, the Man from Nazareth town, and gave him the power to do miracles. You also know how Jesus went to many places, always doing good deeds and healing people. Specifically, he was continually healing all the people whom the devil was causing to suffer. Jesus was able to do those things because God was always helping him.”
39 “We apostles tell people about all the things that we saw Jesus do in Jerusalem and in the rest of Israel. The leaders in Jerusalem had him killed by being nailed to a cross.
40 However, God caused him to become alive again on the third day after he had died. God also enabled some of us(exc) to see him so that we would know that he was alive again.
41 God did not let all the Jewish people see him. Instead, he had chosen us apostles beforehand to see Jesus after he became alive again, and to tell others about him. We apostles are the people who ate meals with him ◄after he had become alive again/after he had risen from the dead►.
42 God commanded us to preach to the people and tell them that Jesus is the one whom he has appointed to judge everyone some day. He will judge all those who will still be living and all those who will have died by that time .
43 All of the prophets who wrote about the Messiah long ago told people about him. They wrote that if people believe in the Messiah MTY, God would forgive them for their sins, because of what the Messiah would do for them.”
44 While Peter was still speaking those words, suddenly the Holy Spirit ◄came down on/began to control► all those non-Jewish people who were listening to the message.
45 The Jewish believers who had come with Peter from Joppa were amazed that God had generously given the Holy Spirit to the non-Jewish people, too.
46 The Jewish believers knew that God had done that because they were hearing those people speaking languages MTY that they had not learned and telling how great God is.
47 Then Peter said to the other Jewish believers who were there, “ God has given them the Holy Spirit just like he gave him to us Jewish believers, so ◄surely all of you would agree that we(exc) should baptize these people!/would any of you forbid that these people should be baptized?► RHQ”

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.
29 Therefore I also came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?”
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
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is also called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.’
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.”
34 Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism;
35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—

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.
40 God raised him up the third day and gave him to be revealed,
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.
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.
43 All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word.
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.
46 For they heard them speaking in other languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
47 “Can anyone forbid these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just like us.”

Acts 10:26-47 in Bible in Basic English

26 But Peter, lifting him up, said, Get up, for I am a man as you are.
27 And saying these words, he went in, and saw that a great number of people had come together;
28 And he said to them, You yourselves have knowledge that it is against the law for a man who is a Jew to be in the company of one who is of another nation; but God has made it clear to me that no man may be named common or unclean:
29 And so I came without question, when I was sent for. What then is your purpose in sending for me?
30 And Cornelius said, Four days from now I was in my house in prayer at the ninth hour; and I saw before me a man in shining clothing,
31 Who said, Cornelius, your prayer has come to the ears of God, and your offerings are kept in his memory.
32 Send, then, to Joppa, and get Simon, named Peter, to come to you; he is living in the house of Simon, a leather-worker, by the sea.
33 So, straight away, I sent for you; and you have done well to come. And now, we are all present before God, ready to give attention to all the things which the Lord has given you to say.
34 Then Peter said, Truly, I see clearly that God is no respecter of persons:
35 But in every nation, the man who has fear of him and does righteousness is pleasing to him.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, giving the good news of peace through Jesus Christ (who is Lord of all) —
37 That word you yourselves have knowledge of, which was made public through all Judaea, starting from Galilee, after the baptism of which John was the preacher,
38 About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they put to death, hanging him on a tree.
40 On the third day God gave him back to life, and let him be seen,
41 Not by all the people, but by witnesses marked out before by God, even by us, who took food and drink with him after he came back from the dead.
42 And he gave us orders to give news of this to the people, and to give public witness that this is he whom God has made judge of the living and the dead.
43 To him all the prophets give witness, that through his name everyone who has faith in him will have forgiveness of sins.
44 While Peter was saying these words, the Holy Spirit came on all those who were hearing the word.
45 And the Jews of the faith, who had come with Peter, were full of wonder, because the Holy Spirit was given to the Gentiles,
46 And they were talking in tongues, and giving glory to God. Then Peter said,
47 Will any man say that these may not have baptism who have been given the Holy Spirit as we have?

26 But Peter made him rise, saying, Rise up: I myself also am a man.
27 And he went in, talking with him, and found many gathered together.
28 And he said to them, Ye know how it is unlawful for a Jew to be joined or come to one of a strange race, and to me God has shewn to call no man common or unclean.
29 Wherefore also, having been sent for, I came without saying anything against it. I inquire therefore for what reason ye have sent for me.
30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I had been fasting unto this hour, and the ninth I was praying in my house, and lo, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 and said, Cornelius, thy prayer has been heard, and thy alms have come in remembrance before God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter; he lodges in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea who when he is come will speak to thee.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee, and thou hast well done in coming. Now therefore we are all present before God to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
34 And Peter opening his mouth said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons,
35 but in every nation he that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 The word which he sent to the sons of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ, (he is Lord of all things,)
37 ye know; the testimony which has spread through the whole of Judaea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John preached —
38 Jesus who was of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power; who went through all quarters doing good, and healing all that were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.
39 We also are witnesses of all things which he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also slew, having hanged him on a cross.
40 This man God raised up the third day and gave him to be openly seen,
41 not of all the people, but of witnesses who were chosen before of God, us who have eaten and drunk with him after he arose from among the dead.
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he it is who was determinately appointed of God to be judge of living and dead.
43 To him all the prophets bear witness that every one that believes on him will receive through his name remission of sins.
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who were hearing the word.
45 And the faithful of the circumcision were astonished, as many as came with Peter, that upon the nations also the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out:
46 for they heard them speaking with tongues and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
47 Can any one forbid water that these should not be baptised, who have received the Holy Spirit as we also did?

26 But Peter lifted him up, saying: Arise, I myself also am a man.
27 And talking with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he said to them: You know how abominable it is for a man that is a Jew, to keep company or to come unto one of another nation: but God hath shewed to me, to call no man common or unclean.
29 For which cause, making no doubt, I came when I was sent for. I ask, therefore, for what cause you have sent for me?
30 And Cornelius said: Four days ago, unto this hour, I was praying in my house, at the ninth hour, and behold a man stood before me in white apparel, and said:
31 Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppe, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee: and thou hast done well in coming. Now therefore all we are present in thy sight, to hear all things whatsoever are commanded thee by the Lord.
34 And Peter opening his mouth, said: In very deed I perceive, that God is not a respecter of persons.
35 But in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh justice, is acceptable to him.
36 God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all.)
37 You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,
38 Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.
40 Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,
41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he arose again from the dead;
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was appointed by God, to be judge of the living and of the dead.
43 To him all the prophets give testimony, that by his name all receive remission of sins, who believe in him.
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them that heard the word.
45 And the faithful of the circumcision, who came with Peter, were astonished, for that the grace of the Holy Ghost was poured out upon the Gentiles also.
46 For they heard them speaking with tongues, and magnifying God.
47 Then Peter answered: Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?

26 But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up; I too am just a man.”
27 And talking with him he went in, and found many having gathered,
28 and he said to them, “You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to associate with or to approach a Gentile; and yet God has shown to me that I should call no man common or unclean;
29 therefore also without objecting, I came when I was sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me?”
30 So Cornelius said, “From the fourth day until this hour I was fasting, and at the ninth hour I was praying in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in shining clothing,
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your alms are remembered before God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, whose surname is Peter. He is staying as a guest in the house of Simon, a tanner, beside the sea. When he arrives, he will speak to you.’
33 Therefore immediately I sent to you, and you have done well to come. Now then we are all present before God, to hear all the things having been commanded you by God.”
34 And Peter, opening his mouth, said: “In truth I comprehend that God is not One to show partiality.
35 But in every nation, he that fears Him and works righteousness is acceptable to Him.
36 The word which God sent to the sons of Israel, preaching the good news of peace through Jesus Christ—He being Lord of all—
37 you know, the word coming to be throughout all of Judea, and beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John proclaimed,
38 Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all those who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which He did, both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they also killed by hanging on a tree.
40 This Jesus God raised up on the third day, and caused Him to be seen,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses, who having been chosen beforehand by God, even to us, who ate and drank together with Him after He arose from the dead.
42 And He commanded us to proclaim to the people, and to testify solemnly that He is the One having been appointed by God to be Judge of the living and the dead.
43 To Him all the prophets bear witness, that through His name, everyone believing in Him shall receive forgiveness of sins.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.
45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astounded, as many as had come with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also.
46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
47 “Surely no one can forbid water, can he, that these should not be baptized who received the Holy Spirit just as we have?”
Acts 10 in English Majority Text Version

Acts 10:26-47 in The New Testament with Commentary

26 But Peter lifted him up, saying: “Stand up! I myself am also a man.”
27 And conversing with him he went in and found many gathered there.
28 Then he said to them: “You know how it is unlawful for a Jewish man to associate with or to approach a different race; but God has shown me that I should not call any man ‘common’ or unclean.
29 Therefore also I came without objection as soon as I was sent for. So I ask, for what reason did you send for me?”
30 So Cornelius said: “I have been fasting during four days until this very hour; yes, it was the ninth hour, I was praying in my house when wow, a man stood before me in shining clothing
31 and said: ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your alms are remembered before God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is surnamed Peter. He is lodging in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea; upon arriving he will speak to you.’
33 So I sent to you at once, and you did well to come. Now then, we are all present before God to hear all the things commanded you by God.”
34 So opening his mouth Peter said: “Really, I comprehend that God is not One to show partiality,
35 but in every ethnic nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is acceptable to Him.
36 The word that He sent to the sons of Israel, preaching good news of peace through Jesus Christ—He is Lord of all—
37 that spoken word you know, that was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism that John preached:
38 Jesus of Natsareth, how God anointed Him with Holy Spirit and power, who went about doing good and healing all those being oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him
39 —yes, we are witnesses of all that He did, both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem—whom they also killed, hanging Him on a tree.
40 Him God raised on the third day, and gave Him to become visible,
41 not to all the people but to witnesses who had been chosen beforehand by God, to us, who ate and drank with Him after He arose out from the dead.
42 And He ordered us to proclaim to the people, that is, to testify that He is the One who has been ordained by God as Judge of living and dead.
43 To Him all the prophets bear witness that through His name everyone who believes into Him will receive forgiveness of sins.”
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all who were hearing the message.
45 Well the believers of the circumcision Jews who had come with Peter were astonished, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had also been poured out on the Gentiles,
46 in that they heard them speaking languages and magnifying God. Then Peter responded:
47 “Surely no one can forbid the water, can he, that these should not be baptized who received the Holy Spirit just like we did?”
Acts 10 in The New Testament with Commentary

Acts 10:26-47 in Free Bible Version

26 But Peter pulled him back up, telling him, “Stand up! I'm only a man!”
27 Peter spoke with Cornelius, and then went on in where he found many other people waiting for him.
28 He said to them, “You certainly know that it's not permitted for a Jew to be associated with or to visit foreigners. But God has shown me that it's not for me to call anyone impure or unclean.
29 That's why I came without any argument when I was sent for. So now I want to know the reason why you sent for me.”
30 “Four days ago, at about this time—three in the afternoon—I was praying in my house,” Cornelius explained. “Suddenly I saw a man standing in front of me, dressed in clothes that shone brightly.
31 He told me, ‘Cornelius, your prayers have been heard, and God has recognized your generosity to the poor.
32 Send someone to Joppa for Simon Peter. He's staying at Simon the tanner's house, down by the sea-shore.’
33 So immediately I sent for you, and it was good of you to come. That's why we're all here, meeting together before God, ready to hear everything the Lord has told you.”
34 Peter replied, “I'm totally convinced that God has no favorites.
35 In every nation God accepts those who respect him, and do what is good and right.
36 You know the message he sent to Israel, sharing the good news of peace that comes from Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.
37 You know that this good news spread throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee, following John's call to baptism.
38 It's about Jesus of Nazareth—how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went around doing good, healing all those who were under the devil's control, for God was with him.
39 We can testify to all that he did in Judea and Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a cross.
40 But God raised him back to life on the third day, and had him appear,
41 not to everyone, but to those witnesses chosen by God—including us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
42 He gave us the responsibility of publicly telling this to the people, to testify that he is the one God chose as the Judge of the living and the dead.
43 He is the one all the prophets spoke about, that everyone who trusts in him will receive forgiveness through his name.”
44 While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell on all of them who were listening to the message.
45 The Jewish believers who had come with Peter were astonished, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on the foreigners.
46 They heard them speaking in tongues, glorifying God.
47 Then Peter asked, “Is anybody going to prevent them being baptized in water, since they have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?”

Acts 10:26-47 in Geneva Bible 1599

26 But Peter tooke him vp, saying, Stand vp: for euen I my selfe am a man.
27 And as he talked with him, he came in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he sayd vnto them, Ye know that it is an vnlawfull thing for a man that is a Iewe, to company, or come vnto one of another nation: but God hath shewed me, that I should not call any man polluted, or vncleane.
29 Therefore came I vnto you without saying nay, when I was sent for. I aske therefore, for what intent haue ye sent for me?
30 Then Cornelius sayd, Foure dayes agoe, about this houre, I fasted, and at the ninth houre I prayed in mine house, and beholde, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 And sayd, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine almes are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Ioppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter (he is lodged in the house of Simon a Tanner by the sea side) who when he commeth, shall speake vnto thee.
33 Then sent I for thee immediately, and thou hast well done to come. Nowe therefore are we all here present before God, to heare all things that are commanded thee of God.
34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and sayd, Of a trueth I perceiue, that God is no accepter of persons.
35 But in euery nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousnesse, is accepted with him.
36 Ye know the worde which God hath sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Iesus Christ, which is Lord of all:
37 Euen the worde which came through all Iudea, beginning in Galile, after the baptisme which Iohn preached.
38 To wit, howe God anointed Iesus of Nazareth with the holy Ghost, and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the deuill: for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Iewes, and in Hierusalem, whom they slewe, hanging him on a tree.
40 Him God raysed vp the third day, and caused that he was shewed openly:
41 Not to all the people, but vnto the witnesses chosen before of God, euen to vs which did eate and drinke with him, after he arose from the dead.
42 And he commanded vs to preach vnto the people, and to testifie, that it is he that is ordained of God a iudge of quicke and dead.
43 To him also giue all the Prophets witnesse, that through his Name all that beleeue in him, shall receiue remission of sinnes.
44 While Peter yet spake these wordes, the holy Ghost fell on al them which heard the word.
45 So they of the circumcision which beleeued, were astonied, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was powred out the gift of the holy Ghost.
46 For they heard them speake with tongues, and magnifie God. Then answered Peter,
47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which haue receiued the holy Ghost, as well as we?

26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
30 And 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,
31 and said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
37 that word, I say, you know, which was published throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

40 him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;
41 not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

26 But Peter raised him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27 And while talking with him, he went in, and found many who had come together.
28 And he said to them, Ye know that it is an unlawful thing for a Jew to keep company with one of another nation, or to come near him; but God showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 Wherefore I came without objection, when sent for. I ask therefore, for what reason did ye send for me?

32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea-side; and he, when he cometh, will speak to thee.
33 I therefore sent to thee immediately; and thou hast done well in coming here. Now therefore we are all present before God, to hear all things that have been commanded thee from the Lord.

37 Ye yourselves know what was spoken of through the whole of Judaea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John preached,
38 relating to Jesus of Nazareth, that God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power; who went about doing good, and healing all that were overpowered by the Devil; for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also slew by hanging him on a cross.
40 Him God raised up on the third day, and caused him to be manifested,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses before appointed by God, to ourselves, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead;

26 Peter, however, lifted him up, saying as he did so, “Stand up, I am only human like yourself.”
27 Talking with him as he went, Peter entered the house, where he found a large gathering of people, to whom he said,
28 “You are doubtless aware that it is forbidden for a Jew to be intimate with a foreigner, or even to enter his house; and yet God has shown me that I ought not to call anyone defiled or unclean.
29 That was why I came, when I was sent for, without raising any objection. And now I ask your reason for sending for me.”
30 “Just three days ago this very hour,” Cornelius said, “I was in my house, saying the Afternoon Prayers, when a man in dazzling clothing suddenly stood before me.
31 ‘Cornelius,’ he said, ‘your prayer has been heard, and your charities have been accepted, by God.
32 Therefore send to Jaffa, and invite the Simon, who is also known as Peter, to come here. He is lodging in the house of Simon the tanner, near the sea.’
33 Accordingly I sent to you at once, and you have been so good as to come. And now we are all here in the presence of God, to listen to all that you have been instructed by the Lord to say.”
34 Then Peter began. “I see, beyond all doubt,” he said, “that God does not show partiality,
35 but that in every nation he who reverences him and does what is right is acceptable to him.
36 God has sent his message to the Israelites and told them, through Jesus Christ, the good news of peace — and Jesus is Lord of all!
37 You yourselves know the story which spread through all Judea, how, beginning form Galilee, after the baptism which John proclaimed —
38 The story, I mean, of Jesus of Nazareth, and how God consecrated him his Christ by enduing him with the Holy Spirit and with power; and how he went about doing good and curing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.
39 We are ourselves, too, witnesses to all that he did in Judea and in Jerusalem; yet they put him to death by hanging him on a cross!
40 This Jesus God raised on the third day, and enabled him to appear,
41 not indeed to everyone, but to witnesses chosen beforehand by God — to us, who ate and drank with him after his resurrection from the dead.
42 Further, God charged us to proclaim to the people, and solemnly affirm, that it is Jesus who has been appointed by God judge of the living and the dead.
43 To him it is that all the prophets bear witness, when they say that everyone who believes in him receives through his name forgiveness of sins.”
44 Before Peter had finished saying these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all who were listening to the message.
45 Those converts from Judaism, who had come with Peter, were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been bestowed even on the Gentiles;
46 for they heard them speaking in different languages and extolling God. At this Peter asked,
47 “Can anyone refuse the water for the baptism of these people, now that they have received the Holy Spirit as we did ourselves?”

Acts 10:26-47 in Plain English Version

26 But Peter lifted him up and said, “Stand up. I’m only a man, like you.”
27 Peter kept talking with Cornelius, then they went into the house, and Peter saw a lot of people there.
28 He said to them, “You know that the Jewish law teachers reckon that people that aren’t Jews are no good, so a Jew shouldn’t go into their house. But God showed me that I shouldn’t say that anyone is no good. He showed me that it is all right for me to visit you.
29 Then these men came and asked me to come here, so I didn’t talk back. I came here with them. Now, please tell me, why did you ask me to come here?”
30 Cornelius said, “4 days ago I was praying in my house at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Suddenly I saw a man wearing bright shining clothes standing in front of me.
31 And he said to me, ‘Cornelius, God heard you pray and he knows that you give money and things to the poor people.
32 So send some men to Joppa and tell them to get Simon Peter and bring him back here. He is staying in a leather worker’s house, whose name is Simon. His house is near the sea.
33 So right away I sent those men to bring you here. Thank you for coming. God can see us all here. We are ready to hear everything that he told you to say to us.”
34 Then Peter started telling them his message. He said, “Now I really understand that God treats everyone the same.
35 If anyone respects God and does the right thing, God will let them come to him, and he will listen to them. It doesn’t matter if they are Jews, or if they belong to another tribe.
36 This is the message that God sent to the Israel people, that Jesus Christ can make all of us friends with God. You see, Jesus is the boss over everybody.
37 Listen, you know the things that happened, first in Galilee country, and then in Judea country. At first John the Baptiser told the people to turn to God,
38 then God gave the Holy Spirit and power to Jesus, a man from the town called Nazareth. God was with Jesus, and he went everywhere doing good things. Some people were sick, and the devil was giving them big trouble. But Jesus made them better.
39 We went around with Jesus and saw all the things that he did, in the Jewish people’s country, and in Jerusalem city. But then his enemies killed him. They nailed him to a cross.
40 But after 3 days God made him alive again, and God let people see him alive.
41 Not everybody saw him alive, but we saw him. We even ate and drank with him. So God picked us to tell other people about him.
42 Jesus told us to tell them that one day God will take everybody to a big court and Jesus will be the judge. He will judge everybody that is alive, and he will judge everybody that is dead too.
43 You see, a long time ago God sent his men to tell his messages, and they all talked about Jesus. They said that if anyone believes in him, God will not blame them for the wrong things they did.”
44 While Peter was still talking, the Holy Spirit came down and went into all the people that were listening to him.
45 Peter’s mob there were Jewish Christians, and they were surprised to see God give his Holy Spirit freely to people that were not Jews.
46 You see, they heard that mob talk in different languages and say that God is great, so they knew that God gave them his spirit. Then Peter said,
47 “God gave the Holy Spirit to these people too, just like he gave him to us. Now nobody can stop us from baptising them in water, can they?”

26 But Peter toke him vp sayinge: stonde vp: for evyn I my silfe am a man.
27 And as he talked with him he cam in and founde many that were come to gether.
28 And he sayde vnto them: Ye do knowe how that that ys an vnlawfull thynge for a man that is a Iewe to company or come vnto an alient: But god hath shewed me that I shuld not call eny man commen or vnclene:

30 And Cornelius sayde: This daye now .iiii. dayes I fasted and at the nynthe houre I prayde in my housse: and beholde a man stode before me in bright clothynge and sayde:
31 Cornelius thy prayer is hearde and thyne almes dedes are had in remembraunce in the sight of God.
32 Sende therfore to Ioppa and call for Simon which is also called Peter. He is lodged in the housse of one Simon a tanner by the see syde the wich assone as he is come shall speake vnto the.
33 Then sent I for the immediatly and thou hast well done for to come. Now are we all here present before god to heare all thynges that are commaunded vnto the of God.
34 Then Peter opened his mouth and sayde: Of a trueth I perseave that God is not parciall
35 but in all people he that feareth him and worketh rightewesnes is accepted with him.
36 Ye knowe the preachynge that God sent vnto the chyldren of Israel preachinge peace by Iesus Christe (which is Lorde over all thinges:
37 Which preachinge was published thorow oute all Iewrye and begane in Galile after the baptyme which Iohn preached
38 how God had annoynted Iesus of Nazareth with the holy goost and with power which Iesus went aboute doinge good and healynge all that were oppressed of the develles for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all thinges which he dyd in the londe of the Iewes and at Ierusalem whom they slew and honge on tree.
40 Him God reysed vp the thyrde daye and shewed him openly
41 not to all the people but vnto vs witnesses chosyn before of God which ate and dronke with him after he arose from deeth.
42 And he commaunded vs to preache vnto the people and testifie that it is he that is ordened of God a iudge of quycke and deed.
43 To him geve all the Prophetes witnes that thorowe his name shall receave remission of synnes all that beleve in him.
44 Whyle Peter yet spake these wordes the holy gost fell on all them which hearde the preachinge.
45 And they of the circucision which beleved were astonyed as many as came with Peter because that on the Gentyls also was sheed oute the gyfte of the holy gost.
46 For they hearde them speake with tonges and magnify God. Then answered Peter:
47 can eny man forbyd water that these shuld not be baptised which have receaved the holy goost as well as we?

26 But Peter helped him up, saying, “Stand up! I too am a man.”
27 While Peter was talking with him, he went in and found many people gathered together.
28 He said to them, “You yourselves know that it is not lawful for a Jewish man to associate with or to visit someone from another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man defiled or unclean.
29 That is why I came without arguing, when I was sent for. So I ask you why you sent for me.”
30 Cornelius said, “Four days ago at this very hour, I was praying at the ninth hour in my house; and see, a man stood before me in bright clothing.
31 He said, 'Cornelius, your prayer has been heard by God, and your gifts to the poor have reminded God about you.
32 So send someone to Joppa, and call to you a man named Simon who is called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside.'
33 So at once I sent for you. You are kind to have come. Now then, we are all here present in the sight of God, to hear everything that you have been instructed by the Lord to say.”
34 Then Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly, I perceive that God does not take anyone's side.
35 Instead, in every nation anyone who worships and does righteous deeds is acceptable to him.
36 You know the message that he sent to the people of Israel, when he announced good news about peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all—
37 you yourselves know the events that took place, which occurred throughout all Judea, beginning in Galilee, after the baptism that John announced;
38 the events concerning Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
39 We are witnesses of all the things Jesus did, both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree,
40 but God raised him up on the third day and caused him to be seen,
41 not by all the people, but to the witnesses who were chosen beforehand by God—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
42 He commanded us to proclaim to the people and to testify that this is the one who has been chosen by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead.
43 It is to him that all the prophets bear witness, so that everyone who believes in him shall receive forgiveness of sins through his name.”
44 While Peter was still saying these things, the Holy Spirit fell on all of those who were listening to his message.
45 The people who belonged to the circumcision group of believers—all of those who came with Peter—were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out also on the Gentiles.
46 For they heard these Gentiles speak in other languages and praising God. Then Peter answered,
47 “Can anyone keep water from these people so they should not be baptized, these people who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?”

26 But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up! I myself am also a man.”
27 As he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered together.
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.
29 Therefore I also came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?”
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
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is also called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.’
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.”
34 Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism;
35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—

26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up: I myself also am a man.
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that had come together.
28 And he said to them, Ye know that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but God hath shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 Therefore I came to you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
30 And 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,
31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send 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.
33 Immediately 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.
34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, In truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
36 The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
37 That word, I say , ye know, which was published throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 That 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.
39 And 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.
40 Him God raised the third day, and showed him openly;
41 Not 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.
42 And 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.
43 To him give all the prophets testimony, that through his name whoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them who heard the word.

26 But Peter raised him, and said, Arise thou, also I myself am a man, as thou.
27 And he spake with him, and went in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he said to them, Ye know, how abominable it is to a Jew, to be joined either to come to an alien; but God showed to me, that no man say a man common, either unclean.
29 For which thing I came, when I was called, without doubting. There-fore I ask you, for what cause have ye called me?
30 And Cornelius said, Today, four days into this hour or From the fourth day passed till to this hour, I was praying and fasting in the ninth hour in mine house. And lo! a man stood before me in a white cloth,
31 and said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms-deeds be in mind in the sight of God.
32 Therefore send thou into Joppa, and call Simon, that is named Peter; this is harboured in the house of Simon currier, beside the sea. This, when he shall come, shall speak to thee.
33 Therefore anon I sent to thee, and thou didest well in coming to us. Now therefore we all be present in thy sight, to hear the words, whatever be commanded to thee of the Lord.
34 And Peter opened his mouth, and said, In truth I have found, that God is no acceptor of persons;
35 but in each folk he that dreadeth God, and worketh rightwiseness, is acceptable to him.
36 God sent a word to the children of Israel, showing peace by Jesus Christ; this is the Lord of all things or of all men.
37 Ye know the word that is made through all Judea, and began at Galilee, after the baptism that John preached, Jesus of Nazareth;
38 how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and virtue; which passed forth in doing well or in well-doing, and healing all men oppressed of the devil, for God was with him.
39 And we be witnesses of all things, which he did in the country of Jews, and of Jerusalem; whom they slew, hanging on a tree.
40 And God raised this in the third day, and gave him to be made known,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses before-ordained of God; to us that ate and drank with him, after that he rose again from death.
42 And he commanded to us to preach to the people, and to witness, that he it is, that is ordained of God doomsman of the quick and of the dead.
43 To this all prophets bear witness-ing or bear witness, that all men that believe in him, shall receive remission of sins by his name.
44 And yet while that Peter spake these words, the Holy Ghost felled on all that heard the word.
45 And the faithful men of circumcision, that came with Peter, wondered, that also into nations the grace of the Holy Ghost is shed out.
46 For they heard them speaking in languages or with tongues, and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
47 Whether any man may forbid water, that these be not baptized, that have also received the Holy Ghost as we?

26 But Peter raised him (up), and said, Arise thou, also I myself am a man, as thou.
27 And he spake with him, and went in, and found many that were come together.
28 And he said to them, Ye know, how abominable it is to a Jew, to be joined either to come to an alien (or to a foreigner); but God showed to me, that no man say a man common, either unclean (or unclean).
29 For which thing I came, when I was called, without doubting. Therefore I ask you, for what cause have ye called me?
30 And Cornelius said, Today, four days into this hour or From the fourth day passed till to this hour, I was praying and fasting in the ninth hour in mine house. And lo! a man stood before me in a white cloth (or a man stood before me in a white cloak),
31 and said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine almsdeeds be in mind in the sight of God (or and thy acts of charity be remembered before God).
32 Therefore send thou into Joppa, and call Simon, that is named Peter; this (man) is harboured in the house of Simon (the) currier, beside the sea. This (man), when he shall come, shall speak to thee.
33 Therefore anon I sent to thee (or And so at once I sent for thee), and thou didest well in coming to us. Now therefore we all be present in thy sight, to hear the words, whatever be commanded to thee of the Lord.
34 And Peter opened his mouth, and said, In truth I have found, that God is no acceptor of persons, (or In truth I have found, that God hath no favourites among people);
35 but in each folk he that dreadeth God, and worketh rightwiseness, is accept(able) to him. (but among all people and every nation, he who hath fearful reverence for God, and worketh righteousness, is acceptable to him.)
36 God sent a word to the children of Israel, showing peace by Jesus Christ; this is (the) Lord of all things, or this is the Lord of all men, (or he is the Lord of everyone).
37 Ye know the word that is made (or the tidings that be told) through(out) all Judea, and (that) began at Galilee, after the baptism that John preached, (about) Jesus of Nazareth;
38 how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and virtue; which passed forth in doing well or which passed forth in well-doing, and healing all men oppressed of the devil, for God was with him. (how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit, and with power; and he went forth doing good, and healing everyone oppressed by the Devil, for God was with him.)
39 And we be witnesses of all things, which he did in the country of (the) Jews, and of Jerusalem; whom they slew, hanging on a tree.
40 And God raised this (man) in (or on) the third day, and gave him to be made known,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses before-ordained of God; to us that ate and drank with him, after that he rose again from death or after that he rose again from (the) dead.
42 And he commanded to us to preach to the people, and to witness, that he it is, that is ordained of God doomsman of the quick and of the dead. (And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify, that it is he, who is ordained by God to be the Judge of the living and of the dead.)
43 To this all (the) prophets bear witnessing or To this all prophets bear witness, that all men that believe in him, shall receive remission of sins by his name. (And all the prophets testify about him, that all who believe in him, shall receive forgiveness for their sins through his name.)
44 And yet while that Peter spake these words, the Holy Ghost felled on all that heard the word. (And while Peter spoke these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard the word.)
45 And the faithful men of (the) circumcision, that came with Peter, wondered, that also into nations the grace of the Holy Ghost is shed out. (And the faithful men of the circumcision, who came with Peter, wondered and were amazed, that the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on heathen men, that is, upon the Gentiles.)
46 For they heard them speaking in languages or speaking with tongues, and magnifying God. Then Peter answered (or Then Peter asked),
47 Whether any man may forbid water, that these be not baptized, that have also received the Holy Ghost as we? (Would anyone forbid the water, with which these people can be baptized, yea, they who have also received the Holy Spirit like we have?)

Acts 10:26-47 in Young's Literal Translation

26 and Peter raised him, saying, 'Stand up; I also myself am a man;'
27 and talking with him he went in, and doth find many having come together.
28 And 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;
29 therefore also without gainsaying I came, having been sent for; I ask, therefore, for what matter ye did send for me?'
30 And Cornelius said, 'Four days ago till this hour, I was fasting, and at the ninth hour praying in my house, and, lo, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 and he said, Cornelius, thy prayer was heard, and thy kind acts were remembered before God;
32 send, therefore, to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; this one doth lodge in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea, who having come, shall speak to thee;
33 at once, therefore, I sent to thee; thou also didst do well, having come; now, therefore, are we all before God present to hear all things that have been commanded thee by God.'
34 And Peter having opened his mouth, said, 'Of a truth, I perceive that God is no respecter of persons,
35 but in every nation he who is fearing Him, and is working righteousness, is acceptable to Him;
36 the word that he sent to the sons of Israel, proclaiming good news — peace through Jesus Christ (this one is Lord of all,)
37 ye — ye have known; — the word that came throughout all Judea, having begun from Galilee, after the baptism that John preached;
38 Jesus who is from Nazareth — how God did anoint him with the Holy Spirit and power; who went through, doing good, and healing all those oppressed by the devil, because God was with him;
39 and we — we are witnesses of all things that he did, both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem, — whom they did slay, having hanged upon a tree.
40 'This one God did raise up the third day, and gave him to become manifest,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses, to those having been chosen before by God — to us who did eat with him, and did drink with him, after his rising out of the dead;
42 and he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify fully that it is he who hath been ordained by God judge of living and dead —
43 to this one do all the prophets testify, that through his name every one that is believing in him doth receive remission of sins.'
44 While Peter is yet speaking these sayings, the Holy spirit fell upon all those hearing the word,
45 and those of the circumcision believing were astonished — as many as came with Peter — because also upon the nations the gift of the Holy Spirit hath been poured out,
46 for they were hearing them speaking with tongues and magnifying God.
47 Then answered Peter, 'The water is any one able to forbid, that these may not be baptized, who the Holy Spirit did receive — even as also we?'
