[28] And he said to them, “You know that a Yehuḏi man is not allowed to associate with, or go to one of another race. But Elohim has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
[29] That is why I came without hesitation when I was sent for. So I ask, why have you sent for me? [31] and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your kind deeds were remembered before Elohim.
[33] So I sent to you immediately, and you have done well to come. And now, we are all present before Elohim, to hear all that you have been commanded by Elohim. [34] And opening his mouth, Kĕpha said, “Truly I see that Elohim shows no partiality,
[35] but in every nation, he who fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him. [36] “He sent the word to the children of Yisra’ĕl, bringing the Good News: peace through יהושע Messiah! He is Master of all.
[38] how Elohim did anoint יהושע of Natsareth with the Set-apart Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for Elohim was with Him. [39] “
And we are witnesses of all He did, both in the country of the Yehuḏim and in Yerushalayim, whom they even killed by hanging on a timber. [40] Elohim raised up this One on the third day, and let Him be seen,” [41] not to all the people,
but to witnesses, those having been chosen before by Elohim – to us who ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.
[43] To this One all the prophets bear witness, that through His Name, everyone believing in Him does receive forgiveness of sins.
[44] While Kĕpha was still speaking these words, the Set-apart Spirit fell upon all those hearing the word.
[45] And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Kĕpha, because the gift of the Set-apart Spirit had been poured out on the nations also,
[47] Is anyone able to forbid water, that these should not be immersed who have received the Set-apart Spirit – even as also we? [48] And he commanded them to be immersed in the Name of יהושע Messiah. Then they asked him to remain a few days.
