rsv Acts:10:1-11
rsv@Acts:10:1 @ At Caesare'a there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of what was known as the Italian Cohort,
rsv@Acts:10:2 @ a devout man who feared God with all his household, gave alms liberally to the people, and prayed constantly to God.
rsv@Acts:10:3 @ About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God coming in and saying to him, "Cornelius."
rsv@Acts:10:4 @ And he stared at him in terror, and said, "What is it, Lord?" And he said to him, "Your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God.
rsv@Acts:10:5 @ And now send men to Joppa, and bring one Simon who is called Peter;
rsv@Acts:10:6 @ he is lodging with Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the seaside."
rsv@Acts:10:7 @ When the angel who spoke to him had departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among those that waited on him,
rsv@Acts:10:8 @ and having related everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
rsv@Acts:10:9 @ The next day, as they were on their journey and coming near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour.
rsv@Acts:10:10 @ And he became hungry and desired something to eat; but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance
rsv@Acts:10:11 @ and saw the heaven opened, and something descending, like a great sheet, let down by four corners upon the earth.
