KJV_Strong : Acts 11
1. And[G1161] the[G3588] apostles[G652] and[G2532] brethren[G80] that were[G5607] in[G2596] Judea[G2449] heard[G191] that[G3754] the[G3588] Gentiles[G1484] had also[G2532] received[G1209] the[G3588] word[G3056] of God.[G2316]
2. And[G2532] when[G3753] Peter[G4074] was come up[G305] to[G1519] Jerusalem,[G2414] they[G3588] that were of[G1537] the circumcision[G4061] contended[G1252] with[G4314] him,[G846]
3. saying,[G3004] Thou wentest in[G1525] to[G4314] men[G435] uncircumcised,[G203] and[G2532] didst eat with[G4906] them.[G846]
4. But[G1161] Peter[G4074] rehearsed the matter from the beginning,[G756] and expounded[G1620] it by order[G2517] unto them,[G846] saying,[G3004]
5. I[G1473] was[G2252] in[G1722] the city[G4172] of Joppa[G2445] praying:[G4336] and[G2532] in[G1722] a trance[G1611] I saw[G1492] a vision,[G3705] A certain[G5100] vessel[G4632] descend,[G2597] as it had been[G5613] a great[G3173] sheet,[G3607] let down[G2524] from[G1537] heaven[G3772] by four[G5064] corners;[G746] and[G2532] it came[G2064] even to[G891] me: [G1700]
6. Upon[G1519] the which[G3739] when I had fastened mine eyes,[G816] I considered,[G2657] and[G2532] saw[G1492] fourfooted beasts[G5074] of the[G3588] earth,[G1093] and[G2532] wild beasts,[G2342] and[G2532] creeping things,[G2062] and[G2532] fowls[G4071] of the[G3588] air.[G3772]
7. And[G1161] I heard[G191] a voice[G5456] saying[G3004] unto me,[G3427]
8. But[G1161] I said,[G2036] Not so,[G3365] Lord:[G2962] for[G3754] nothing[G3956] common[G2839] or[G2228] unclean[G169] hath at any time[G3763] entered[G1525] into[G1519] my[G3450] mouth.[G4750]
9. But[G1161] the voice[G5456] answered[G611] me[G3427] again[G1537] [G1208] from[G1537] heaven,[G3772]
10. And[G1161] this[G5124] was done[G1096] three times:[G5151] and[G2532] all[G537] were drawn up[G385] again[G3825] into[G1519] heaven.[G3772]
11. And,[G2532] behold,[G2400] immediately[G1824] there were three[G5140] men[G435] already come[G2186] unto[G1909] the[G3588] house[G3614] where[G1722] [G3739] I was,[G2252] sent[G649] from[G575] Caesarea[G2542] unto[G4314] me.[G3165]
12. And[G1161] the[G3588] Spirit[G4151] bade[G2036] me[G3427] go with[G4905] them,[G846] nothing[G3367] doubting.[G1252] Moreover[G1161] these[G3778] six[G1803] brethren[G80] [G2532] accompanied[G2064] [G4862] me,[G1698] and[G2532] we entered[G1525] into[G1519] the[G3588] man's[G435] house: [G3624]
13. And[G5037] he showed[G518] us[G2254] how[G4459] he had seen[G1492] an angel[G32] in[G1722] his[G846] house,[G3624] which stood[G2476] and[G2532] said[G2036] unto him,[G846] Send[G649] men[G435] to[G1519] Joppa,[G2445] and[G2532] call for[G3343] Simon,[G4613] whose surname is[G1941] Peter;[G4074]
14. Who[G3739] shall tell[G2980] thee[G4571] words,[G4487] whereby[G1722] [G3739] thou[G4771] and[G2532] all[G3956] thy[G4675] house[G3624] shall be saved.[G4982]
15. And[G1161] as I[G3165] began[G756] to speak,[G2980] the[G3588] Holy[G40] Ghost[G4151] fell[G1968] on[G1909] them,[G846] as[G5618] [G2532] on[G1909] us[G2248] at[G1722] the beginning.[G746]
16. Then[G1161] remembered[G3415] I the[G3588] word[G4487] of the Lord,[G2962] how[G5613] that he said,[G3004]
17. Forasmuch[G1487] then[G3767] as God[G2316] gave[G1325] them[G846] the[G3588] like[G2470] gift[G1431] as[G5613] he did[G2532] unto us,[G2254] who believed[G4100] on[G1909] the[G3588] Lord[G2962] Jesus[G2424] Christ;[G5547] what[G5101] was[G2252] I, that I could[G1415] withstand[G2967] God?[G2316]
18. When[G1161] they heard[G191] these things,[G5023] they held their peace,[G2270] and[G2532] glorified[G1392] God,[G2316] saying,[G3004] Then[G686] hath[G1065] God[G2316] also[G2532] to the[G3588] Gentiles[G1484] granted[G1325] repentance[G3341] unto[G1519] life.[G2222]
19. Now[G3767] they which were scattered abroad[G1289] [G3303] upon[G575] the[G3588] persecution[G2347] that arose[G1096] about[G1909] Stephen[G4736] traveled[G1330] as far as[G2193] Phoenicia,[G5403] and[G2532] Cyprus,[G2954] and[G2532] Antioch,[G490] preaching[G2980] the[G3588] word[G3056] to none[G3367] but[G1508] unto the Jews[G2453] only.[G3440]
20. And[G1161] some[G5100] of[G1537] them[G846] were[G2258] men[G435] of Cyprus[G2953] and[G2532] Cyrene,[G2956] which,[G3748] when they were come[G1525] to[G1519] Antioch,[G490] spake[G2980] unto[G4314] the[G3588] Grecians,[G1675] preaching[G2097] the[G3588] Lord[G2962] Jesus.[G2424]
21. And[G2532] the hand[G5495] of the Lord[G2962] was[G2258] with[G3326] them:[G846] and[G5037] a great[G4183] number[G706] believed,[G4100] and turned[G1994] unto[G1909] the[G3588] Lord.[G2962]
22. Then[G1161] tidings of these things came[G3056] [G4012] [G846] [G191] unto[G1519] the[G3588] ears[G3775] of the[G3588] church[G1577] which[G3588] was in[G1722] Jerusalem:[G2414] and[G2532] they sent forth[G1821] Barnabas,[G921] that he should go[G1330] as far as[G2193] Antioch.[G490]
23. Who,[G3739] when he came,[G3854] and[G2532] had seen[G1492] the[G3588] grace[G5485] of God,[G2316] was glad,[G5463] and[G2532] exhorted[G3870] them all,[G3956] that with purpose[G4286] of heart[G2588] they would cleave unto[G4357] the[G3588] Lord.[G2962]
24. For[G3754] he was[G2258] a good[G18] man,[G435] and[G2532] full[G4134] of the Holy[G40] Ghost[G4151] and[G2532] of faith:[G4102] and[G2532] much[G2425] people[G3793] was added[G4369] unto the[G3588] Lord.[G2962]
25. Then[G1161] departed[G1831] Barnabas[G921] to[G1519] Tarsus,[G5019] for to seek[G327] Saul: [G4569]
26. And[G2532] when he had found[G2147] him,[G846] he brought[G71] him[G846] unto[G1519] Antioch.[G490] And[G1161] it came to pass,[G1096] that a whole[G3650] year[G1763] they[G846] assembled themselves[G4863] with[G1722] the[G3588] church,[G1577] and[G2532] taught[G1321] much[G2425] people.[G3793] And[G5037] the[G3588] disciples[G3101] were called[G5537] Christians[G5546] first[G4412] in[G1722] Antioch.[G490]
27. And[G1161] in[G1722] these[G5025] days[G2250] came[G2718] prophets[G4396] from[G575] Jerusalem[G2414] unto[G1519] Antioch.[G490]
28. And[G1161] there stood up[G450] one[G1520] of[G1537] them[G846] named[G3686] Agabus,[G13] and signified[G4591] by[G1223] the[G3588] spirit[G4151] that there should[G3195] be[G1510] great[G3173] dearth[G3042] throughout[G1909] all[G3650] the[G3588] world:[G3625] which[G3748] [G2532] came to pass[G1096] in the days of[G1909] Claudius[G2804] Caesar.[G2541]
29. Then[G1161] the[G3588] disciples,[G3101] every man[G1538] according to[G2531] his ability,[G5100] [G2141] determined[G3724] to send[G3992] relief[G1519] [G1248] unto the[G3588] brethren[G80] which dwelt[G2730] in[G1722] Judea: [G2449]
30. Which[G3739] also[G2532] they did,[G4160] and sent[G649] it to[G4314] the[G3588] elders[G4245] by[G1223] the hands[G5495] of Barnabas[G921] and[G2532] Saul.[G4569]
