Cornelius' Vision

10 Now there was a man in Caesarea named Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian cohort. 2 He was a devout man who feared God along with his entire household; he gave generously to those in need and always prayed to God. 3 About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God, who came in and said to him, “Cornelius!” 4 Staring at him intently, Cornelius was afraid and said, “What is it, Lord?” The angel said to him, “Yoʋr prayers and charitable acts have ascended as a memorial offering before God. 5 Now send men to Joppa and have them bring back [fn]Simon, who is called Peter. 6 He is staying with a tanner named Simon, whose house is by the [fn]sea.” 7 When the angel who spoke to him went away, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among his attendants. 8 After explaining everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
