Peter and Cornelius

Acts 10

¹ At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of _w what was known as the Italian Cohort, ² a devout man _x who feared God with all his household, gave alms generously to the people, and prayed continually to God. ³ _y About the ninth hour of the day _{1 z} he saw clearly in a vision _a an angel of God come in and say to him, "Cornelius." ⁴ And he stared at him in terror and said, "What is it, Lord?" And he said to him, "Your prayers and your alms _b have ascended _c as a memorial before God. ⁵ And now send men to Joppa and bring one Simon who is called Peter. ⁶ He is lodging _d with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea." ⁷ When the angel who spoke to him had departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among those who attended him, ⁸ and having related everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
