14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
But Peter sayde: God forbyd Lorde for I have never eaten eny thinge that is comen or vnclene.
15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time, What God has cleansed, that call not you common.
And the voyce spake vnto him agayne the seconde tyme: what God hath clensed that make thou not comen.
16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
This was done thryse and the vessell was receaved vp agayne into heven.
17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate,
Whyle Peter mused in him selfe what this vision which he had sene meant beholde the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquirance for Simons housse and stode before the dore.
18 And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.

And they sayde vnto him: Cornelius the captayne a iust man and won that feareth God and of good reporte amonge all the people of the Iewes was warned by an holy angell to sende for the into his housse and to heare wordes of the.

28 And he said to them, You know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but God has showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
And he sayde vnto them: Ye do knowe how that yt ys an vnlawfull thynge for a man that is a Iewe to company or come vnto an alient: But god hath shewed me that I shuld not call eny man commen or vnclene:

34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

35 But in every nation he that fears him, and works righteousness, is accepted with him.
but in all people he that feareth him and worketh rightewesnes is accepted with him.
36 The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all: )
Ye knowe the preachynge that God sent vnto the chyldren of Israel preachinge peace by Iesus Christe (which is Lorde over all thinges):
37 That word, I say, you know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
Which preachinge was published thorow oute all Iewrye and begane in Galile after the baptyme which Iohn preached
38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
how God had annoynted Iesus of Nazareth with the holy goost and with power which Iesus went aboute doinge good and healynge all yt were oppressed of the develles for God was with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
And we are witnesses of all thinges which he dyd in the londe of the Iewes and at Ierusalem whom they slew and honge on tree.
40 Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly;
Him God reysed vp ye thyrde daye and shewed him openly
41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
not to all the people but vnto vs witnesses chosyn before of God which ate and dronke with him after he arose from deeth.
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
And he comaunded vs to preache vnto the people and testifie that it is he that is ordened of God a iudge of quycke and deed.
43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whoever believes in him shall receive remission of sins.
To him geve all the Prophetes witnes that thorowe his name shall receave remission of synnes all that beleve in him.
44 While Peter yet spoke these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
Whyle Peter yet spake these wordes the holy gost fell on all them which hearde the preachinge.
45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
And they of ye circucision which beleved were astonyed as many as came wt Peter because that on the Gentyls also was sheed oute ye gyfte of the holy gost.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
For they hearde them speake with tonges and magnify God. Then answered Peter:
47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
can eny man forbyd water that these shuld not be baptised which have receaved the holy goost as well as we?
48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
And he comaunded them to be baptysed in the name of the Lorde. Then prayde they him to tary a feawe dayes.
