Acts 10
1 But a certain man in Caesarea, — by name Cornelius, a centurion of the band called Italic,

4 But he, having fixed his eyes upon him, and become full of fear, said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Thy prayers and thine alms have gone up for a memorial before God.

5 And now send men to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter.

7 And when the angel who was speaking to him had departed, having called two of his household and a pious soldier of those who were constantly with him,

9 And on the morrow, as these were journeying and drawing near to the city, Peter went up on the house to pray, about the sixth hour.

10 And he became hungry and desired to eat. But as they were making ready an ecstasy came upon him:

11 and he beholds the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as a great sheet, [bound] by [the] four corners [and] let down to the earth;

12 in which were all the quadrupeds and creeping things of the earth, and the fowls of the heaven.

14 And Peter said, In no wise, Lord; for I have never eaten anything common or unclean.

15 And [there was] a voice again the second time to him, What God has cleansed, do not thou make common.

16 And this took place thrice, and the vessel was straightway taken up into heaven.

17 And as Peter doubted in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold also the men who were sent by Cornelius, having sought out the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲟⲣⲁⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲕⲟⲣⲛⲏⲗⲓⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲁⲩϣⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⳿ⲡⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲤⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲣⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲡⲩⲗⲱⲛ.
18 and having called [some one], they inquired if Simon who was surnamed Peter was lodged there.

19 But as Peter continued pondering over the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men seek thee;

20 but rise up, go down, and go with them, nothing doubting, because I have sent them.

21 And Peter going down to the men said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause for which ye come?

22 And they said, Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man, and fearing God, and borne witness to by the whole nation of the Jews, has been divinely instructed by a holy angel to send for thee to his house, and hear words from thee.

23 Having therefore invited them in, he lodged them. And on the morrow, rising up he went away with them, and certain of the brethren from Joppa went with him.

24 And on the morrow they came to Caesarea. But Cornelius was looking for them, having called together his kinsmen and [his] intimate friends.
