25And when it came to pass that Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
26But Peter raised him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27And as he talked with him, he went in, and findeth many come together:
28and he said unto them, Ye yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to join himself or come unto one of another nation; and [yet] unto me hath God showed that I should not call any man common or unclean:
29wherefore also I came without gainsaying, when I was sent for. I ask therefore with what intent ye sent for me.
30And Cornelius said, Four days ago, until this hour, I was keeping the ninth hour of prayer in my house; and behold, a man stood before me in bright apparel,
31and saith, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
