Acts 11:2-18

2So whenG3753 PeterG4074 went upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, the circumcisedG3588G1537G4061 believers1 took issueG1252 withG4314 himG846 3and saidG3004, “You visitedG1525G4314 uncircumcisedG2192G203 menG435 andG2532 ate withG4906 themG846.”

4ButG1161 PeterG4074 beganG756 and explainedG1620 to themG846 the whole sequence of eventsG2517: 5“IG1473 wasG1510 inG1722 the cityG4172 of JoppaG2445 prayingG4336, andG2532 inG1722 a tranceG1611 I sawG3708 a visionG3705 of somethingG5100G4632 likeG5613 a largeG3173 sheetG3607 being let downG2597G2524 fromG1537 heavenG3772 by its fourG5064 cornersG746, andG2532 it came right down toG2064G891 meG1473. 6I lookedG816 atG1519 it closelyG3739 and sawG2657G2532G3708 four-footed animalsG5074 of theG3588 earthG1093, wild beastsG2342, reptilesG2062, andG2532 birdsG4071 of theG3588 airG3772. 7ThenG1161G2532 I heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayingG3004 to meG1473, ‘Get upG450, PeterG4074, killG2380 andG2532 eatG5315.’

8‘NoG3365, LordG2962,’ I saidG2036, ‘forG3754 nothingG3763 impureG28392 orG2228 uncleanG169 has ever enteredG1525G1519 myG1473 mouthG4750.’

9ButG1161 the voiceG5456 spokeG611 fromG1537 heavenG3772 a secondG1208 time, ‘Do not call anything impureG3361G2840 thatG3739 GodG2316 has made cleanG2511.’

10

ThisG3778 happenedG1096 three timesG5151, andG2532 everythingG537 was drawn back upG385G3825 intoG1519 heavenG3772.

11

Just thenG2400G1824 threeG5140 menG435 sentG649 toG4314 meG1473 fromG575 CaesareaG2542 stoppedG2186 atG1909 theG3588 houseG3614 where I wasG1510 staying. 12TheG3588 SpiritG4151 toldG2036 meG1473 to accompanyG4905 themG846 withoutG3367 hesitationG1252. TheseG3778 sixG1803 brothersG80 alsoG2532 wentG2064 withG4862 meG1473, andG2532 we enteredG1525G1519 theG3588 man’sG435 homeG3624. 13He toldG518 usG1473 howG4459 he had seenG3708 an angelG32 standingG2476 inG1722 hisG846 houseG3624 andG2532 sayingG2036, ‘SendG649 toG1519 JoppaG2445 for SimonG4613 whoG3588 is calledG1941 PeterG4074. 14He will conveyG2980 toG4314 youG4771 a messageG4487 byG1722 whichG3739 youG4771 andG2532 allG3956 yourG4771 householdG3624 will be savedG4982.’

15As IG1473 beganG756 to speakG2980, theG3588 HolyG40 SpiritG4151 fellG1968 uponG1909 themG846, just asG5618 He had fallen uponG1909 usG1473 atG1722 the beginningG746. 16ThenG1161 I rememberedG3403 theG3588 wordG4487 of theG3588 LordG2962, howG5613 He saidG2036, ‘JohnG2491 baptizedG907 with waterG5204, butG1161 youG4771 will be baptizedG907 withG1722 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.’3 17SoG3767 ifG1487 GodG2316 gaveG1325 themG846 theG3588 sameG2470 giftG1431 He gave usG1473 who believedG4100 inG1909 theG3588 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG5101 wasG1510 IG1473 toG1415 hinderG2967 the work of GodG2316?”

18When they heardG191 this, they had no furtherG2270 objections, andG2532 they glorifiedG1392 GodG2316, sayingG3004, “So thenG686, GodG2316 has grantedG1325 evenG2532 theG3588 GentilesG1484 repentanceG3341 untoG1519 lifeG2222.”
