Deeds (Act) of Apostles 10:29-45

²⁹For which thing I came, when I was called, without doubting. There-fore I ask you, for what cause have ye called me?

³⁰And 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,

³¹and said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms-deeds be in mind in the sight of God.

³²Therefore 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.

³³Therefore 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.

³⁴And Peter opened his mouth, and said, In truth I have found, that God is no acceptor of persons;

³⁵but in each folk he that dreadeth God, and worketh rightwiseness, is acceptable to him.

³⁶God sent a word to the children of Israel, showing peace by Jesus Christ; this is the Lord of all things or of all men.

³⁷Ye know the word that is made through all Judea, and began at Galilee, after the baptism that John preached, Jesus of Nazareth;

³⁸how 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.

³⁹And we be witnesses of all things, which he did in the country of Jews, and of Jerusalem; whom they slew, hanging on a tree.

⁴⁰And God raised this in the third day, and gave him to be made known,

⁴¹not 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.

⁴²And 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.

⁴³To this all prophets bear witness-ing or bear witness, that all men that believe in him, shall receive remission of sins by his name.

⁴⁴And yet while that Peter spake these words, the Holy Ghost felled on all that heard the word.

⁴⁵And the faithful men of circumcision, that came with Peter, wondered, that also into nations the grace of the Holy Ghost is shed out.
