Acts 10

32 Send, then, to Joppa, and get Simon, named Peter, to come to you; he is living in the house of Simon, a leather-worker, by the sea.

33 Ref So, straight away, I sent for you; and you have done well to come. And now, we are all present before God, ready to give attention to all the things which the Lord has given you to say.

34 Ref Then Peter said, Truly, I see clearly that God is no respecter of persons:

35 Ref But in every nation, the man who has fear of him and does righteousness is pleasing to him.

36 Ref The word which he sent to the children of Israel, giving the good news of peace through Jesus Christ (who is Lord of all)--

37 Ref That word you yourselves have knowledge of, which was made public through all Judaea, starting from Galilee, after the baptism of which John was the preacher,

38 Ref About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.

39 Ref And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they put to death, hanging him on a tree.

40 Ref On the third day God gave him back to life, and let him be seen,

41 Ref Not by all the people, but by witnesses marked out before by God, even by us, who took food and drink with him after he came back from the dead.

42 Ref And he gave us orders to give news of this to the people, and to give public witness that this is he whom God has made judge of the living and the dead.

43 Ref To him all the prophets give witness, that through his name everyone who has faith in him will have forgiveness of sins.

44 Ref While Peter was saying these words, the Holy Spirit came on all those who were hearing the word.

45 Ref And the Jews of the faith, who had come with Peter, were full of wonder, because the Holy Spirit was given to the Gentiles,

46 Ref And they were talking in tongues, and giving glory to God. Then Peter said,

47 Ref Will any man say that these may not have baptism who have been given the Holy Spirit as we have?

48 Ref And he gave orders for them to have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they kept him with them for some days.
