Whiston(i)
45 And they of the circumcision who believed, were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the free gift of the Holy Ghost.
46 For they heard them speaking with other tongues, and magnifying God. But Peter said,
47 Can any one forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?
48 Then he commanded them to be baptized, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then prayed they him to tarry with them certain days.
11 1 But it was heard by the Apostles and brethren in Judea, that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 Now Peter had a desire for a long time so go to Jerusalem. And when he had spoken to the brethren, and confirmed them, he spake largely, and taught them through the countries: who also came to them, and declared to them the grace of God. But those brethren who were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.
4 But Peter beginning, expounded it in order unto them, saying,
5 I was in the city of Joppa, praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descended, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me.
6 Upon the which when I stedfastly looked, I considered, and saw four-footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
7 And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; kill and eat.
8 But I said, By no means, Lord: for what is common or unclean hath not at any time entered into my mouth.
9 But a voice came to me from heaven, What God hath cleansed, make not thou common.
10 Andthis was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven.
11 And behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Cesarea unto me.
12 And the spirit said to me, go with them. These six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:
13 But he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said unto him, Send to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose sirname is Peter:
14 Who shall speak unto thee words, whereby thou shalt be saved, and all thy house.
15 And as Ibegan to speak to them, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as also on us at the beginning,
16 And I remembred the word of the Lord, how he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
17 Forasmuch then as he gave them the like free gift as unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, what was I that I could so far withstand God, as not to give those who have believed on him the Holy Spirit (read: Baptism)?
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.
