He gave [money] liberally to poor people and prayed to God regularly. ³ About three o'clock one afternoon [Note: This is based on Jewish time calculations; if Roman time were employed, it would have been 9 AM], while he was wide awake, he had a vision in which an angel of God came to him [and spoke his name] "Cornelius." ⁴ As he stared at [the angel] in fright, he asked, "What is it, Lord?"

And the angel replied, "Your [continual] prayers and [generous] gifts to poor people have not gone unnoticed before God.
