Acts 10:32-48

CAB(i) 32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, whose surname is Peter. He is staying as a guest in the house of Simon, a tanner, beside the sea. Who arriving, will speak to you.' 33 "Therefore immediately I sent to you, and you have done well to come. Now then we are all present before God, to hear all the things having been commanded you by God." 34 And Peter, opening his mouth, said: "In truth I comprehend that God is not One to show partiality. 35 But in every nation, he that fears Him and works righteousness is acceptable to Him. 36 The word which God sent to the sons of Israel, preaching the good news of peace through Jesus Christ--He being Lord of all-- 37 you know, the word coming to be throughout all of Judea, and beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John proclaimed, 38 Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all those who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him. 39 And we are witnesses of all things which He did, both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they also killed by hanging on a tree. 40 This Jesus God raised on the third day, and granted Him to become visible, 41 not to all the people, but to witnesses, who having been chosen beforehand by God, even to us, who ate together and drank together with Him after He arose from the dead. 42 And He commanded us to proclaim to the people, and to testify solemnly that He is the One having been appointed by God to be Judge of the living and the dead. 43 To Him all the prophets bear witness, that through His name, everyone believing in Him shall receive forgiveness of sins." 44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those hearing the word. 45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astounded, as many as had come with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and magnifying God. Then Peter answered, 47 Surely no one can forbid water, can he, that these should not be baptized who received the Holy Spirit just as we have?" 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay for some days.
