Acts 10:45-11:18 And the faithful of the circumcision were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out on the nations also.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴⁵ And the faithful of the circumcision were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out on the nations also. ⁴⁶ For they heard them speaking in languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered, ⁴⁷ Can anyone forbid the water that these not be baptized, who the Holy Spirit received, even as we also? ⁴⁸ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to remain some days. ¹¹ ¹ And the apostles and the brothers who were throughout Judea heard that the nations also received the Word of God. ² And when Peter went up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him, ³ saying, You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them. ⁴ But beginning, Peter set out to them in order, saying, ⁵ I was being in the city of Joppa, praying. And in an ecstasy, I saw a vision: a certain vessel was coming down, like a huge sheet, being let down by four corners out of the heaven; and it came as far as me. ⁶ Looking intently on this, I observed. And I saw the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the heaven. ⁷ And I heard a voice saying to me, Peter, rise up, slay and eat. ⁸ But I said, Not at all, Lord, because never has anything common or unclean entered into my mouth. ⁹ But a voice answered me the second time out of the heaven, What God has cleansed, you do not make common. ¹⁰ And this took place three times, and all things were pulled up into the heaven again. ¹¹ And, behold, at once three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me. ¹² And the Spirit said to me to go with them, not discriminating. And these six brothers also were with me, and we went into the man's house. ¹³ And he told us how he saw an angel in his house, standing and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and send for Simon who is surnamed Peter, ¹⁴ who will speak words to you by which you and all your household will be saved. ¹⁵ And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as also on us in the beginning. ¹⁶ And I recalled the Word of the Lord, how He said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ Then if God gave the same gift to them as also to us, believing on the Lord Jesus Christ, and I, who was I to be able to prevent God? ¹⁸ And hearing these things, they kept silent and glorified God, saying, Then God also has granted to the nations repentance unto life.
