KJV ¹ There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,

TR1550 ¹ ἀνὴρ δέ τις ἦν ἐν καισαρείᾳ ὀνόματι κορνήλιος ἑκατοντάρχης ἐκ σπείρης τῆς καλουμένης ἰταλικῆς

KJV ² A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

TR1550 ² εὐσεβὴς καὶ φοβούμενος τὸν θεὸν σὺν παντὶ τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ ποιῶν τε ἐλεημοσύνας πολλὰς τῷ λαῷ καὶ δεόμενος τοῦ θεοῦ διαπαντός

KJV ³ He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

TR1550 ³ εἶδεν ἐν ὁράματι φανερῶς ὡσεὶ ὥραν ἐννάτην τῆς ἡμέρας ἄγγελον τοῦ θεοῦ εἰσελθόντα πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἰπόντα αὐτῷ κορνήλιε

KJV ⁴ And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

TR1550 ⁴ ὁ δὲ ἀτενίσας αὐτῷ καὶ ἔμφοβος γενόμενος εἶπεν τί ἐστιν κύριε εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ αἱ προσευχαί σου καὶ αἱ ἐλεημοσύναι σου ἀνέβησαν εἰς μνημόσυνον ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ

KJV ⁵ And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:

TR1550 ⁵ καὶ νῦν πέμψον εἰς ἰόππην ἄνδρας καὶ μετάπεμψαι σίμωνά ὃς ἐπικαλεῖται πέτρος

KJV ⁶ He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.

TR1550 ⁶ οὗτος ξενίζεται παρά τινι σίμωνι βυρσεῖ ᾧ ἐστιν οἰκία παρὰ θάλασσαν οὗτος λαλήσει σοι τί σε δεῖ ποιεῖν

KJV ⁷ And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;

TR1550 ⁷ ὡς δὲ ἀπῆλθεν ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν τῷ κορνηλίῳ, φωνήσας δύο τῶν οἰκετῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ στρατιώτην εὐσεβῆ τῶν προσκαρτερούντων αὐτῷ

KJV ⁸ And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.

TR1550 ⁸ καὶ ἐξηγησάμενος αὐτοῖς ἅπαντα ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν ἰόππην

KJV ⁹ On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:

TR1550 ⁹ τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον ὁδοιπορούντων ἐκείνων καὶ τῇ πόλει ἐγγιζόντων ἀνέβη πέτρος ἐπὶ τὸ δῶμα προσεύξασθαι περὶ ὥραν ἕκτην

KJV ¹⁰ And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

TR1550 ¹⁰ ἐγένετο δὲ πρόσπεινος καὶ ἤθελεν γεύσασθαι παρασκευαζόντων δὲ ἐκείνων, ἐπέπεσεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν ἔκστασις

KJV ¹¹ And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

TR1550 ¹¹ καὶ θεωρεῖ τὸν οὐρανὸν ἀνεῳγμένον καὶ καταβαῖνον ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν σκεῦός τι ὡς ὀθόνην μεγάλην τέσσαρσιν ἀρχαῖς δεδεμένον καὶ καθιέμενον ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

KJV ¹² Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

TR1550 ¹² ἐν ᾧ ὑπῆρχεν πάντα τὰ τετράποδα τῆς γῆς καὶ τὰ θηρία καὶ τὰ ἑρπετὰ καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

KJV ¹³ And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

TR1550 ¹³ καὶ ἐγένετο φωνὴ πρὸς αὐτόν ἀναστάς πέτρε θῦσον καὶ φάγε

KJV ¹⁴ But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

TR1550 ¹⁴ ὁ δὲ πέτρος εἶπεν μηδαμῶς κύριε ὅτι οὐδέποτε ἔφαγον πᾶν κοινὸν ἢ ἀκάθαρτον

KJV ¹⁵ And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

TR1550 ¹⁵ καὶ φωνὴ πάλιν ἐκ δευτέρου πρὸς αὐτόν ἃ ὁ θεὸς ἐκαθάρισεν σὺ μὴ κοίνου

KJV ¹⁶ This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

TR1550 ¹⁶ τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ τρίς καὶ πάλιν ἀνελήφθη τὸ σκεῦος εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν

KJV ¹⁷ Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,

TR1550 ¹⁷ ὡς δὲ ἐν ἑαυτῷ διηπόρει ὁ πέτρος τί ἂν εἴη τὸ ὅραμα ὃ εἶδεν καὶ ἰδού, οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ ἀπεσταλμένοι ἀπὸ τοῦ κορνηλίου διερωτήσαντες τὴν οἰκίαν σίμωνος ἐπέστησαν ἐπὶ τὸν πυλῶνα

KJV ¹⁸ And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.

TR1550 ¹⁸ καὶ φωνήσαντες ἐπυνθάνοντο εἰ σίμων ὁ ἐπικαλούμενος πέτρος ἐνθάδε ξενίζεται

KJV ¹⁹ While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.

TR1550 ¹⁹ τοῦ δὲ πέτρου ἐνθυμουμένου περὶ τοῦ ὁράματος εἶπεν αὐτῷ τὸ πνεῦμα ἰδού, ἄνδρες τρεῖς ζητοῦσιν σε

KJV ²⁰ Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.

TR1550 ²⁰ ἀλλὰ ἀναστὰς κατάβηθι καὶ πορεύου σὺν αὐτοῖς μηδὲν διακρινόμενος διότι ἐγὼ ἀπέσταλκα αὐτούς

KJV ²¹ Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?

TR1550 ²¹ καταβὰς δὲ πέτρος πρὸς τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς ἀπεσταλμενοῦς ἀπὸ τοῦ κορνηλίου πρὸς αὑτὸν, εἶπεν ἰδού, ἐγώ εἰμι ὃν ζητεῖτε τίς ἡ αἰτία δι᾽ ἣν πάρεστε

KJV ²² And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.

TR1550 ²² οἱ δὲ εἶπον, κορνήλιος ἑκατοντάρχης ἀνὴρ δίκαιος καὶ φοβούμενος τὸν θεὸν μαρτυρούμενός τε ὑπὸ ὅλου τοῦ ἔθνους τῶν ἰουδαίων ἐχρηματίσθη ὑπὸ ἀγγέλου ἁγίου μεταπέμψασθαί σε εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκοῦσαι ῥήματα παρὰ σοῦ

KJV ²³ Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

TR1550 ²³ εἰσκαλεσάμενος οὖν αὐτοὺς ἐξένισεν τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον ὁ πέτρος, ἐξῆλθεν σὺν αὐτοῖς καί τινες τῶν ἀδελφῶν τῶν ἀπὸ τὴς ἰόππης συνῆλθον αὐτῷ

KJV ²⁴ And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and he had called together his kinsmen and near friends.

TR1550 ²⁴ καὶ τῇ ἐπαύριον εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν καισάρειαν ὁ δὲ κορνήλιος ἦν προσδοκῶν αὐτούς συγκαλεσάμενος τοὺς συγγενεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς ἀναγκαίους φίλους

KJV ²⁵ And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.

TR1550 ²⁵ ὡς δὲ ἐγένετο εἰσελθεῖν τὸν πέτρον συναντήσας αὐτῷ ὁ κορνήλιος πεσὼν ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας προσεκύνησεν

KJV ²⁶ But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

TR1550 ²⁶ ὁ δὲ πέτρος αὐτὸν ἤγειρεν λέγων, ἀνάστηθι κα᾽γὼ αὐτὸς ἄνθρωπός εἰμι

KJV ²⁷ And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.

TR1550 ²⁷ καὶ συνομιλῶν αὐτῷ εἰσῆλθεν καὶ εὑρίσκει συνεληλυθότας πολλούς

KJV ²⁸ And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

TR1550 ²⁸ ἔφη τε πρὸς αὐτούς ὑμεῖς ἐπίστασθε ὡς ἀθέμιτόν ἐστιν ἀνδρὶ ἰουδαίῳ κολλᾶσθαι ἢ προσέρχεσθαι ἀλλοφύλῳ καὶ ἐμοὶ ὁ θεὸς ἔδειξεν μηδένα κοινὸν ἢ ἀκάθαρτον λέγειν ἄνθρωπον

KJV ²⁹ Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?

TR1550 ²⁹ διὸ καὶ ἀναντιῤῥήτως ἦλθον μεταπεμφθείς πυνθάνομαι οὖν τίνι λόγῳ μετεπέμψασθέ με

KJV ³⁰ And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

TR1550 ³⁰ καὶ ὁ κορνήλιος ἔφη ἀπὸ τετάρτης ἡμέρας μέχρι ταύτης τῆς ὥρας ἤμην νηστεύων, καὶ τὴν ἐννάτην ὥραν προσευχόμενος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ μου καὶ ἰδού, ἀνὴρ ἔστη ἐνώπιόν μου ἐν ἐσθῆτι λαμπρᾷ

KJV ³¹ And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

TR1550 ³¹ καὶ φησίν κορνήλιε εἰσηκούσθη σου ἡ προσευχὴ καὶ αἱ ἐλεημοσύναι σου ἐμνήσθησαν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ

KJV ³² Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.

TR1550 ³² πέμψον οὖν εἰς ἰόππην καὶ μετακάλεσαι σίμωνα ὃς ἐπικαλεῖται πέτρος οὗτος ξενίζεται ἐν οἰκίᾳ σίμωνος βυρσέως παρὰ θάλασσαν ὃς παραγενόμενος λαλήσει σοι

KJV ³³ Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.

TR1550 ³³ ἐξαυτῆς οὖν ἔπεμψα πρὸς σέ σύ τε καλῶς ἐποίησας παραγενόμενος νῦν οὖν πάντες ἡμεῖς ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ πάρεσμεν ἀκοῦσαι πάντα τὰ προστεταγμένα σοι ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ

KJV ³⁴ Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

TR1550 ³⁴ ἀνοίξας δὲ πέτρος τὸ στόμα εἶπεν ἐπ ἀληθείας καταλαμβάνομαι ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν προσωπολήπτης ὁ θεός

KJV ³⁵ But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

TR1550 ³⁵ ἀλλ᾽ ἐν παντὶ ἔθνει ὁ φοβούμενος αὐτὸν καὶ ἐργαζόμενος δικαιοσύνην δεκτὸς αὐτῷ ἐστιν

KJV ³⁶ The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)

TR1550 ³⁶ τὸν λόγον ὃν ἀπέστειλεν τοῖς υἱοῖς ἰσραὴλ εὐαγγελιζόμενος εἰρήνην διὰ ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ οὗτός ἐστιν πάντων κύριος

KJV ³⁷ That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

TR1550 ³⁷ ὑμεῖς οἴδατε τὸ γενόμενον ῥῆμα καθ᾽ ὅλης τῆς ἰουδαίας ἀρξάμενον ἀπὸ τῆς γαλιλαίας μετὰ τὸ βάπτισμα ὃ ἐκήρυξεν ἰωάννης

KJV ³⁸ How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

TR1550 ³⁸ ἰησοῦν τὸν ἀπὸ ναζαρέτ ὡς ἔχρισεν αὐτὸν ὁ θεὸς πνεύματι ἁγίῳ καὶ δυνάμει ὃς διῆλθεν εὐεργετῶν καὶ ἰώμενος πάντας τοὺς καταδυναστευομένους ὑπὸ τοῦ διαβόλου ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ἦν μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ

KJV ³⁹ And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:

TR1550 ³⁹ καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐσμεν μάρτυρες πάντων ὧν ἐποίησεν ἔν τε τῇ χώρᾳ τῶν ἰουδαίων καὶ ἐν ἰερουσαλήμ ὃν ἀνεῖλον κρεμάσαντες ἐπὶ ξύλου

KJV ⁴⁰ Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;

TR1550 ⁴⁰ τοῦτον ὁ θεὸς ἤγειρεν τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν ἐμφανῆ γενέσθαι

KJV ⁴¹ Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

TR1550 ⁴¹ οὐ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ ἀλλὰ μάρτυσιν τοῖς προκεχειροτονημένοις ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῖν οἵτινες συνεφάγομεν καὶ συνεπίομεν αὐτῷ μετὰ τὸ ἀναστῆναι αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν

KJV ⁴² And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.

TR1550 ⁴² καὶ παρήγγειλεν ἡμῖν κηρύξαι τῷ λαῷ καὶ διαμαρτύρασθαι ὅτι αὐτός ἐστιν ὁ ὡρισμένος ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ κριτὴς ζώντων καὶ νεκρῶν

KJV ⁴³ To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

TR1550 ⁴³ τούτῳ πάντες οἱ προφῆται μαρτυροῦσιν ἄφεσιν ἁμαρτιῶν λαβεῖν διὰ τοῦ ὀνόματος αὐτοῦ πάντα τὸν πιστεύοντα εἰς αὐτόν

KJV ⁴⁴ While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.

TR1550 ⁴⁴ ἔτι λαλοῦντος τοῦ πέτρου τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐπέπεσεν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς ἀκούοντας τὸν λόγον

KJV ⁴⁵ And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.

TR1550 ⁴⁵ καὶ ἐξέστησαν οἱ ἐκ περιτομῆς πιστοὶ ὅσοι συνῆλθον τῷ πέτρῳ ὅτι καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη ἡ δωρεὰ τοῦ ἁγίου πνεύματος ἐκκέχυται

KJV ⁴⁶ For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

TR1550 ⁴⁶ ἤκουον γὰρ αὐτῶν λαλούντων γλώσσαις καὶ μεγαλυνόντων τὸν θεόν τότε ἀπεκρίθη ὁ πέτρος

KJV ⁴⁷ Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

TR1550 ⁴⁷ μήτι τὸ ὕδωρ κωλῦσαί δύναται τις τοῦ μὴ βαπτισθῆναι τούτους οἵτινες τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον ἔλαβον καθὼς καὶ ἡμεῖς

KJV ⁴⁸ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

TR1550 ⁴⁸ προσέταξεν τε αὐτοὺς βαπτισθῆναι ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ κυρίου τότε ἠρώτησαν αὐτὸν ἐπιμεῖναι ἡμέρας τινάς
