NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ While Peter doubted in himself what this vision ment, behold, the men who were sent from Cornelius inquired for Simon’s house, and stood at the gate. ¹⁸ They called out and asked if Simon surnamed Peter lived there. ¹⁹ While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him: »Behold, three men seek you. ²⁰ »Stand up and go down to greet them. Do not doubt for I have sent them. ²¹ Then Peter went down to the men who were sent to him from Cornelius. He said: »I am the one you are looking for. Why did you come?« ²² They said: »We come from Cornelius the centurion, a righteous man who respects God. He has a good reputation among all the nation of the Jews. A holy angel told him to have you come to his house so he could hear what you have to say.« ²³ He invited them in to be his guests. The next day Peter went away with them. Brothers accompanied them from Joppa. ²⁴ The day after that they entered Caesarea. Cornelius expected them so he called his relatives and close friends to join him. ²⁵ Cornelius met Peter and fell down at his feet with adoration for him. ²⁶ »Stand up,« Peter said, as he lifted him up, »I am also a man.« ²⁷ He talked with him and went in to find many people gathered. ²⁸ He said to them: »You know that it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to keep company, or approach someone of another nation. But God revealed to me that I should not call any man defiled or unclean.
