Acts 11:2-17

2AndG2532 whenG3753 PeterG4074 was come upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2414, they that wereG3588 ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061 contendedG1252 withG4314 himG846,

3SayingG3004, Thou wentest inG1525 toG4314 menG435 uncircumcisedG203, andG2532 didst eat withG4906 themG846.

4ButG1161 PeterG3588G4074 rehearsedG756 the matter from the beginningG756, and expoundedG1620 it by orderG2517 unto themG846, sayingG3004,

5IG1473 wasG1510 inG1722 the cityG4172 of JoppaG2445 prayingG4336: andG2532 inG1722 a tranceG1611 I sawG3708 a visionG3705, A certainG5100 vesselG4632 descendG2597, as it had beenG5613 a greatG3173 sheetG3607, let downG2524 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772 by fourG5064 cornersG746; andG2532 it cameG2064 even toG891 meG1473:

6UponG1519 the whichG3739 when I had fastened mine eyesG816, I consideredG2657, andG2532 sawG3708 fourfooted beastsG5074 of the earthG3588G1093, andG2532 wild beastsG3588G2342, andG2532 creeping thingsG3588G2062, andG2532 fowlsG3588G4071 of the airG3588G3772.

7AndG1161 I heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayingG3004 unto meG1473, AriseG450, PeterG4074; slayG2380 andG2532 eatG5315.

8ButG1161 I saidG3004, Not soG3365, LordG2962: forG3754 nothingG3956 commonG2839 orG2228 uncleanG169 hath at any timeG3763 enteredG1525 intoG1519 myG1473 mouthG3588G4750.

9ButG1161 the voiceG5456 answeredG611 meG1473 againG1208 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772, WhatG3739 GodG3588G2316 hath cleansedG2511, that callG2840 notG3361 thouG4771 commonG2840.

10AndG1161 thisG3778 was doneG1096 three timesG5151: andG2532 allG537 were drawn upG385 againG3825 intoG1519 heavenG3588G3772.

11AndG2532, beholdG3708, immediatelyG1824 there were threeG5140 menG435 already comeG2186 untoG1909 the houseG3588G3614 whereG3739 I wasG1510, sentG649 fromG575 CæsareaG2542 untoG4314 meG1473.

12AndG1161 the SpiritG3588G4151 badeG3004 meG1473 go withG4905 themG846, nothingG3367 doubtingG1252. MoreoverG1161 theseG3778 sixG1803 brethrenG80 accompaniedG2064 meG1473, andG2532 we enteredG1525 intoG1519 the man’sG3588G435 houseG3588G3624:

13AndG5037 he shewedG518 usG1473 howG4459 he had seenG3708 an angelG3588G32 inG1722 hisG846 houseG3588G3624, which stoodG2476 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, SendG649 menG435 toG1519 JoppaG2445, andG2532 call forG3343 SimonG4613, whose surname isG1941 PeterG4074;

14WhoG3739 shall tellG2980 theeG4771 wordsG4487, wherebyG3739 thouG4771 andG2532 allG3956 thyG4771 houseG3588G3624 shall be savedG4982.

15AndG1161 asG1722 IG1473 beganG756 to speakG2980, the HolyG40 GhostG3588G4151 fellG1968 onG1909 themG846, asG5618 onG1909 usG1473 atG1722 the beginningG746.

16ThenG1161 remembered IG3403 the wordG3588G4487 of the LordG2962, how thatG5613 he saidG3004, JohnG2491 indeedG3303 baptizedG907 with waterG5204; butG1161 yeG4771 shall be baptizedG907 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.

17ForasmuchG1487 thenG3767 asG5613 GodG3588G2316 gaveG1325 themG846 the likeG2470 giftG1431 asG2532 he did unto usG1473, who believedG4100 onG1909 the LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; whatG5101 wasG1510 IG1473, that I couldG1415 withstandG2967 GodG3588G2316?
