    2 a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.

    4 He, fastening his eyes on him, and being frightened, said, "What is it, Lord?" He said to him, "Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.

    16 This was done three times, and immediately the vessel was received up into heaven.

    17 Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood before the gate,

    18 and called and asked whether Simon, who was surnamed Peter, was lodging there.

    19 While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men seek you.

    20 But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them."

    21 Peter went down to the men, and said, "Behold, I am he whom you seek. Why have you come?"

    22 They said, "Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the nation of the Jews, was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to listen to what you say."

    23 So he called them in and lodged them. On the next day Peter arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.

    31 and said, 'Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.

    32 Send therefore to Joppa, and summon Simon, who is surnamed Peter. He lodges in the house of Simon a tanner, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.'

    33 Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God."

    34 Peter opened his mouth and said, "Truly I perceive that God doesn't show favoritism;

    35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
