Acts 10:17-26 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

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.

18. And when they had called, they asked, if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, were lodged there.

19. And as Peter was thinking of the vision, the Spirit said to him: Behold three men seek thee.

20. Arise, therefore, get thee down and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.

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?

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.

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.

24. And the morrow after, he entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, having called together his kinsmen and special friends.

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.

26. But Peter lifted him up, saying: Arise, I myself also am a man.
