Acts 10:15-26
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 10
15Again a voice came to him a second time, 'What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.' 16This happened three times, and immediately the object was taken up into the sky.
17Now while Peter was greatly perplexed in mind as to what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who had been sent by Cornelius had asked directions to Simon’s house, and they appeared at the gate;
18and calling out, they were asking whether Simon, who was also called Peter, was staying there.
19While Peter was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him, 'Behold, three men are looking for you.
20But get up, go downstairs and accompany them without misgivings, for I have sent them Myself.'
21Peter went down to the men and said, 'Behold, I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for which you have come?'
22They said, 'Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous and God-fearing man well spoken of by the entire nation of the Jews, was divinely directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and hear a message from you.'
23So he invited them in and gave them lodging. Now on the next day he got ready and went away with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
24On the following day he entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends.
25When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell at his feet and worshiped him.
26But Peter helped him up, saying, 'Stand up; I, too, am just a man.'
King James Version
Chapter 10
15And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. 16This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven. 17Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate, 18And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
19While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.
20Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
21Then 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?
22And 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.
23Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
24And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.
25And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
26But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

Chapter 10
15But the voice spoke again: 'Do not call something unclean if God has made it clean.' 16The same vision was repeated three times. Then the sheet was suddenly pulled up to heaven.
17Peter was very perplexed. What could the vision mean? Just then the men sent by Cornelius found Simon’s house. Standing outside the gate,
18they asked if a man named Simon Peter was staying there.
19Meanwhile, as Peter was puzzling over the vision, the Holy Spirit said to him, 'Three men have come looking for you.
20Get up, go downstairs, and go with them without hesitation. Don’t worry, for I have sent them.'
22They said, 'We were sent by Cornelius, a Roman officer. He is a devout and God-fearing man, well respected by all the Jews. A holy angel instructed him to summon you to his house so that he can hear your message.'
23So Peter invited the men to stay for the night. The next day he went with them, accompanied by some of the brothers from Joppa.

19And while Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men are looking for you.

21And Peter went down to the men and said, “I am the one you are looking for. What is the reason for your coming?”
22And they said, “Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and to hear what you have to say.”
