Acts 10
1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion of that which is called the Italian band;
ανηρ δε τισ ην εν καισαρεια ονοματι κορνηλιοσ εκατονταρχησ εκ σπειρησ τησ καλουμενησ ιταλικησ
2 A religious man, and fearing God with all his house, giving much alms to the people, and always praying to God.
ευσεβησ και φοβουμενοσ τον θεον συν παντι τω οικω αυτου ποιων τε ελεημοσυνασ πολλασ τω λαω και δεομενοσ του θεου δια παντοσ
3 This man saw in a vision manifestly, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in unto him, and saying to him: Cornelius.
ειδεν εν οραματι φανερωσ ωσει ωραν ενατην τησ ημερασ αγγελον του θεου εισελθοντα προσ αυτον και ειποντα αυτω κορνηλιε
4 And he, beholding him, being seized with fear, said: What is it, Lord? And he said to him: Thy prayers and thy alms are ascended for a memorial in the sight of God.
ο δε ατενισασ αυτω και εμφοβοσ γενομενοσ ειπεν τι εστιν κυριε ειπεν δε αυτω αι προσευχαι σου και αι ελεημοσυναι σου ανεβησαν εισ μνημοσυνον ενωπιον του θεου
5 And now send men to Joppe, and call hither one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:
και νυν πεμψον εισ ιοππην ανδρασ και μεταπεμψαι σιμωνα τον επικαλουμενον πετρον
6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side. He will tell thee what thou must do.
ουτοσ ξενιζεται παρα τινι σιμωνι βυρσει ω εστιν οικια παρα θαλασσαν
7 And when the angel who spoke to him was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a soldier who feared the Lord, of them that were under him.
ωσ δε απηλθεν ο αγγελοσ ο λαλων τω κορνηλιω φωνησασ δυο των οικετων αυτου και στρατιωτην ευσεβη των προσκαρτερουντων αυτω
8 To whom when he had related all, he sent them to Joppe.
και εξηγησαμενοσ αυτοισ απαντα απεστειλεν αυτουσ εισ την ιοππην
9 And on the next day, whilst they were going on their journey, and drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up to the higher parts of the house to pray, about the sixth hour.
τη δε επαυριον οδοιπορουντων εκεινων και τη πολει εγγιζοντων ανεβη πετροσ επι το δωμα προσευξασθαι περι ωραν εκτην
10 And being hungry, he was desirous to taste somewhat. And as they were preparing, there came upon him an ecstasy of mind.
εγενετο δε προσπεινοσ και ηθελεν γευσασθαι παρασκευαζοντων δε εκεινων επεπεσεν επ αυτον εκστασισ
11 And he saw the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great linen sheet let down by the four corners from heaven to the earth:
και θεωρει τον ουρανον ανεωγμενον και καταβαινον επ αυτον σκευοσ τι ωσ οθονην μεγαλην τεσσαρσιν αρχαισ δεδεμενον και καθιεμενον επι τησ γησ
12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air.
εν ω υπηρχεν παντα τα τετραποδα τησ γησ και τα θηρια και τα ερπετα και τα πετεινα του ουρανου
13 And there came a voice to him: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.
και εγενετο φωνη προσ αυτον αναστασ πετρε θυσον και φαγε
14 But Peter said: Far be it from me; for I never did eat any thing that is common and unclean.
ο δε πετροσ ειπεν μηδαμωσ κυριε οτι ουδεποτε εφαγον παν κοινον η ακαθαρτον
15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time: That which God hath cleansed, do not thou call common.
και φωνη παλιν εκ δευτερου προσ αυτον α ο θεοσ εκαθαρισεν συ μη κοινου
16 And this was done thrice; and presently the vessel was taken up into heaven.
τουτο δε εγενετο επι τρισ και παλιν ανεληφθη το σκευοσ εισ τον ουρανον
17 Now, whilst Peter was doubting within himself, what the vision that he had seen should mean, behold the men who were sent from Cornelius, inquiring for Simon’s house, stood at the gate.
ωσ δε εν εαυτω διηπορει ο πετροσ τι αν ειη το οραμα ο ειδεν και ιδου οι ανδρεσ οι απεσταλμενοι απο του κορνηλιου διερωτησαντεσ την οικιαν σιμωνοσ επεστησαν επι τον πυλωνα
18 And when they had called, they asked, if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
και φωνησαντεσ επυνθανοντο ει σιμων ο επικαλουμενοσ πετροσ ενθαδε ξενιζεται
19 And as Peter was thinking of the vision, the Spirit said to him: Behold three men seek thee.
του δε πετρου διενθυμουμενου περι του οραματοσ ειπεν αυτω το πνευμα ιδου ανδρεσ ζητουσιν σε
20 Arise, therefore, get thee down and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
αλλα αναστασ καταβηθι και πορευου συν αυτοισ μηδεν διακρινομενοσ διοτι εγω απεσταλκα αυτουσ
21 Then Peter, going down to the men, said: Behold, I am he whom you seek; what is the cause for which you are come?
καταβασ δε πετροσ προσ τουσ ανδρασ ειπεν ιδου εγω ειμι ον ζητειτε τισ η αιτια δι ην παρεστε
22 Who said: Cornelius, a centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and having good testimony from all the nation of the Jews, received an answer of an holy angel, to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
οι δε ειπον κορνηλιοσ εκατονταρχησ ανηρ δικαιοσ και φοβουμενοσ τον θεον μαρτυρουμενοσ τε υπο ολου του εθνουσ των ιουδαιων εχρηματισθη υπο αγγελου αγιου μεταπεμψασθαι σε εισ τον οικον αυτου και ακουσαι ρηματα παρα σου
23 Then bringing them in, he lodged them. And the day following he arose, and went with them: and some of the brethren from Joppe accompanied him.
εισκαλεσαμενοσ ουν αυτουσ εξενισεν τη δε επαυριον ο πετροσ εξηλθεν συν αυτοισ και τινεσ των αδελφων των απο ιοππησ συνηλθον αυτω
24 And the morrow after, he entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, having called together his kinsmen and special friends.
και τη επαυριον εισηλθον εισ την καισαρειαν ο δε κορνηλιοσ ην προσδοκων αυτουσ συγκαλεσαμενοσ τουσ συγγενεισ αυτου και τουσ αναγκαιουσ φιλουσ
25 And it came to pass, that when Peter was come in, Cornelius came to meet him, Cornelius came to meet him, and falling at his feet adored.
ωσ δε εγενετο του εισελθειν τον πετρον συναντησασ αυτω ο κορνηλιοσ πεσων επι τουσ ποδασ προσεκυνησεν
26 But Peter lifted him up, saying: Arise, I myself also am a man.
ο δε πετροσ αυτον ηγειρεν λεγων αναστηθι καγω αυτοσ ανθρωποσ ειμι
27 And talking with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
και συνομιλων αυτω εισηλθεν και ευρισκει συνεληλυθοτασ πολλουσ
28 And he said to them: You know how abominable it is for a man that is a Jew, to keep company or to come unto one of another nation: but God hath shewed to me, to call no man common or unclean.
εφη τε προσ αυτουσ υμεισ επιστασθε ωσ αθεμιτον εστιν ανδρι ιουδαιω κολλασθαι η προσερχεσθαι αλλοφυλω και εμοι ο θεοσ εδειξεν μηδενα κοινον η ακαθαρτον λεγειν ανθρωπον
29 For which cause, making no doubt, I came when I was sent for. I ask, therefore, for what cause you have sent for me?
διο και αναντιρρητωσ ηλθον μεταπεμφθεισ πυνθανομαι ουν τινι λογω μετεπεμψασθε με
30 And Cornelius said: Four days ago, unto this hour, I was praying in my house, at the ninth hour, and behold a man stood before me in white apparel, and said:
και ο κορνηλιοσ εφη απο τεταρτησ ημερασ μεχρι ταυτησ τησ ωρασ ημην νηστευων και την ενατην ωραν προσευχομενοσ εν τω οικω μου και ιδου ανηρ εστη ενωπιον μου εν εσθητι λαμπρα
31 Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
και φησιν κορνηλιε εισηκουσθη σου η προσευχη και αι ελεημοσυναι σου εμνησθησαν ενωπιον του θεου
32 Send therefore to Joppe, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.
πεμψον ουν εισ ιοππην και μετακαλεσαι σιμωνα οσ επικαλειται πετροσ ουτοσ ξενιζεται εν οικια σιμωνοσ βυρσεωσ παρα θαλασσαν οσ παραγενομενοσ λαλησει σοι
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee: and thou hast done well in coming. Now therefore all we are present in thy sight, to hear all things whatsoever are commanded thee by the Lord.
εξαυτησ ουν επεμψα προσ σε συ τε καλωσ εποιησασ παραγενομενοσ νυν ουν παντεσ ημεισ ενωπιον του θεου παρεσμεν ακουσαι παντα τα προστεταγμενα σοι υπο του θεου
34 And Peter opening his mouth, said: In very deed I perceive, that God is not a respecter of persons.
ανοιξασ δε πετροσ το στομα ειπεν επ αληθειασ καταλαμβανομαι οτι ουκ εστιν προσωποληπτησ ο θεοσ
35 But in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh justice, is acceptable to him.
αλλ εν παντι εθνει ο φοβουμενοσ αυτον και εργαζομενοσ δικαιοσυνην δεκτοσ αυτω εστιν
36 God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all.)
τον λογον ον απεστειλεν τοισ υιοισ ισραηλ ευαγγελιζομενοσ ειρηνην δια ιησου χριστου ουτοσ εστιν παντων κυριοσ
37 You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,
υμεισ οιδατε το γενομενον ρημα καθ ολησ τησ ιουδαιασ αρξαμενον απο τησ γαλιλαιασ μετα το βαπτισμα ο εκηρυξεν ιωαννησ
38 Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
ιησουν τον απο ναζαρετ ωσ εχρισεν αυτον ο θεοσ πνευματι αγιω και δυναμει οσ διηλθεν ευεργετων και ιωμενοσ παντασ τουσ καταδυναστευομενουσ υπο του διαβολου οτι ο θεοσ ην μετ αυτου
39 And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.
και ημεισ εσμεν μαρτυρεσ παντων ων εποιησεν εν τε τη χωρα των ιουδαιων και εν ιερουσαλημ ον και ανειλον κρεμασαντεσ επι ξυλου
40 Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,
τουτον ο θεοσ ηγειρεν τη τριτη ημερα και εδωκεν αυτον εμφανη γενεσθαι
41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he arose again from the dead;
ου παντι τω λαω αλλα μαρτυσιν τοισ προκεχειροτονημενοισ υπο του θεου ημιν οιτινεσ συνεφαγομεν και συνεπιομεν αυτω μετα το αναστηναι αυτον εκ νεκρων
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was appointed by God, to be judge of the living and of the dead.
και παρηγγειλεν ημιν κηρυξαι τω λαω και διαμαρτυρασθαι οτι αυτοσ εστιν ο ωρισμενοσ υπο του θεου κριτησ ζωντων και νεκρων
43 To him all the prophets give testimony, that by his name all receive remission of sins, who believe in him.
τουτω παντεσ οι προφηται μαρτυρουσιν αφεσιν αμαρτιων λαβειν δια του ονοματοσ αυτου παντα τον πιστευοντα εισ αυτον
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them that heard the word.
ετι λαλουντοσ του πετρου τα ρηματα ταυτα επεπεσεν το πνευμα το αγιον επι παντασ τουσ ακουοντασ τον λογον
45 And the faithful of the circumcision, who came with Peter, were astonished, for that the grace of the Holy Ghost was poured out upon the Gentiles also.
και εξεστησαν οι εκ περιτομησ πιστοι οσοι συνηλθον τω πετρω οτι και επι τα εθνη η δωρεα του αγιου πνευματοσ εκκεχυται
46 For they heard them speaking with tongues, and magnifying God.
ηκουον γαρ αυτων λαλουντων γλωσσαισ και μεγαλυνοντων τον θεον τοτε απεκριθη ο πετροσ
47 Then Peter answered: Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?
μητι το υδωρ κωλυσαι δυναται τισ του μη βαπτισθηναι τουτουσ οιτινεσ το πνευμα το αγιον ελαβον καθωσ και ημεισ
48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they desired him to tarry with them some days.
προσεταξεν τε αυτουσ βαπτισθηναι εν τω ονοματι του κυριου τοτε ηρωτησαν αυτον επιμειναι ημερασ τινασ
