* 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 .
