Cornelius's Vision in Caesarea

1

Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,

2

a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.

3

At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God coming to him, and saying to him, “Cornelius!”

4

He, fastening his eyes on him, and being frightened, said, “What is it, Lord?” He said to him, “Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.

5

Now send men to Joppa, and get Simon, who is also called Peter.

6

He lodges with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the seaside.

7

When the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who waited on him continually.

8

Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
