Acts:10:22-35
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And they said (
5627 ),
Cornelius the centurion ,
a just man ,
and one that feareth (
5740 )
God ,
and of good report (
5746 )
among all the nation of the Jews ,
was warned from God (
5681 )
by an holy angel to send (
5664 )
for thee into his house ,
and to hear (
5658 )
words of thee .
*
Then called he them in (
5662 ),
and lodged (
5656 )
them .
And on the morrow Peter went away (
5627 )
with them ,
and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied (
5627 )
him .
*
And the morrow after they entered (
5627 )
into Caesarea .
And Cornelius waited for (
5723 )
them (
5713 ),
and had called together (
5671 )
his kinsmen and near friends .
*
And as Peter was (
5633 )
coming in (
5629 ),
Cornelius met (
5660 )
him ,
and fell down (
5631 )
at his feet ,
and worshipped (
5656 )
him .
*
But Peter took him up (
5656 ),
saying (
5723 ),
Stand up (
5628 );
I myself also am (
5748 )
a man .
*
And as he talked (
5723 )
with him ,
he went in (
5627 ),
and found (
5719 )
many that were come together (
5761 ).
*
And he said (
5713 )
unto them ,
Ye know (
5736 )
how that it is (
5748 )
an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company (
5745 ),
or come unto (
5738 )
one of another nation ;
but God hath shewed (
5656 )
me that I should not call (
5721 )
any man common or unclean .
*
Therefore came I (
5627 )
unto you without gainsaying ,
as soon as I was sent for (
5685 ):
I ask (
5736 )
therefore for what intent ye have sent for (
5662 )
me ?
*
And Cornelius said (
5713 ),
Four days ago I was (
5713 )
fasting (
5723 )
until this hour ;
and at the ninth hour I prayed (
5740 )
in my house ,
and ,
behold (
5628 ),
a man stood (
5627 )
before me in bright clothing ,
*
And said (
5748 ),
Cornelius ,
thy prayer is heard (
5681 ),
and thine alms are had in remembrance (
5681 )
in the sight of God .
*
Send (
5657 )
therefore to Joppa ,
and call hither (
5669 )
Simon ,
whose surname is (
5743 )
Peter ;
he is lodged (
5743 )
in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side :
who ,
when he cometh (
5637 ),
shall speak (
5692 )
unto thee .
*
Immediately therefore I sent (
5656 )
to thee ;
and thou hast well done (
5656 )
that thou art come (
5637 ).
Now therefore are we all here present (
5748 )
before God ,
to hear (
5658 )
all things that are commanded (
5772 )
thee of God .
*
Then Peter opened (
5660 )
his mouth ,
and said (
5627 ),
Of a truth I perceive (
5731 )
that God is (
5748 )
no respecter of persons :
*
But in every nation he that feareth (
5740 )
him ,
and worketh (
5740 )
righteousness ,
is (
5748 )
accepted with him .
