Acts 10:10-33

Etheridge(i) 10 And he hungered, and desired to eat: and while they were preparing for him, there fell upon him an entrancement, 11 and he saw the heavens opened, and a certain vessel bound at the four corners, and like to a great sheet, and it was let down from heaven upon the earth: 12 and in it were all animals of four feet, and reptiles of the earth, and fowls of the heaven. 13 And a voice came to him, which said, Shemun, arise, slay, and eat. 14 And Shemun said, Not so, my Lord: for never have I eaten any thing that is profane [Or, polluted.] and unclean. 15 And again the second time was to him, Those (things) which Aloha cleanseth make not thou profane. [Or, polluted.] 16 This was three times done: and the vessel was elevated to heaven. 17 And while Shemun wondered in himself for what (was) the vision he had seen, those men came who had been sent by Cornelius, and inquired for the house where Shemun sojourned, and they came and stood at the gate of the court. 18 And they called there, and inquired, whether Shemun who was called Kipha there sojourned. 19 And while Shemun thought on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men seek thee: 20 arise, descend and go with them, not being divided in thy mind: for I have sent them. 21 Then Shemun descended to those men, and said to them, I am he whom you seek: what is the occasion on which you have come? 22 They said to him, A certain man whose name is Cornelius, a centurion, who feareth Aloha, and of whom all the people of the Jihudoyee give witness, hath been told in a vision by an holy angel to send and bring thee to his house, and to hear words from thee. 23 And Shemun brought them in, and received them while they tarried; and he arose the day after, and went forth, and proceeded with them; and certain of the brethren of Joppa went with them. 24 And the next day they entered Cesarea: but Cornelius was waiting for them, while all the sons of his family, and the friends and beloved ones whom he had, were assembled with him. 25 AND when Shemun entered Cornelius met him, and fell and worshipped at his feet. 26 And Shemun raised him, and said to him, Arise, I also am a man. 27 And while speaking with him he entered, and found many who had come thither. 28 And he said to them, You know that it is not lawful for a man a Jihudoya to attach to a foreign man who is not a son of his tribe. But me hath Aloha showed that I should not declare any man unclean or profane. 29 Wherefore I the more diligently came when you sent for me. But I ask you, on what account you have sent for me? 30 And Cornelius said to him, Four days are unto this from when, behold, I am fasting; and at nine hours, while praying in my house, a certain man stood before me clothed in white. 31 And he said to me, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms have made memorial before Aloha. 32 But send to Joppa the city, and bring Shemun who is called Kipha; behold, he abideth in the house of Shemun a tanner, which is by the sea; and he will come and speak with thee. 33 And immediately I sent to thee, and thou hast well done to have come. And, behold, we are all before thee, and desire to hear every thing that hath been commanded thee by Aloha.
