25. When Peter entered the house, Cornelius met him. As a sign of respect, he fell at Peter's feet.
26. But Peter made him get up. "Stand up," he said. "I am only a man myself."
27. Talking with Cornelius, Peter went inside. There he found a large group of people.
28. He said to them, "You know that it is against our law for a Jew to have anything to do with those who aren't Jews. But God has shown me that I should not say anyone is not pure and 'clean.'
29. So when you sent for me, I came without asking any questions. May I ask why you sent for me?"
