Acts 11

1 Peter, being accused for going in to the Gentiles, 5 maketh his defence, 18 which is accepted. 19 The Gospel being spread into Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, Barnabas is sent to confirm them. 26 The disciples there are first called Christians. 27 They send relief to the brethren in Judea in the time of famine.

 11:1 ¶ And 1161 the x3588 apostles 652 and 2532 brethren 80 that were 5607 z5752 in 2596 Judaea 2449 heard 191 z5656 that 3754 the x3588 Gentiles 1484 had y1209 z0 also 2532 received 1209 z5662 the x3588 word 3056 of God. 2316

 11:2 And 2532 when 3753 Peter 4074 was come up 305 z5627 to 1519 Jerusalem, 2414 they x3588 that were of 1537 the circumcision 4061 contended 1252 z5710 with 4314 him, 846

 11:3 Saying, 3004 z5723 y3754 Thou wentest in 1525 z5627 to 4314 men 435 uncircumcised, 203 y2192 z5723 and 2532 didst eat y4906 z5627 with x4906 them. 846

 11:4 But 1161 Peter 4074 rehearsed [the matter] from the beginning, 756 z5671 and expounded 1620 z5710 [it] by order 2517 unto them, 846 saying, 3004 z5723

 11:5 I 1473 was 2252 z5713 in 1722 the city 4172 of Joppa 2445 praying: 4336 z5740 and 2532 in 1722 a trance 1611 I saw 1492 z5627 a vision, 3705 A certain 5100 vessel 4632 descend, 2597 z5723 as it had been 5613 a great 3173 sheet, 3607 let down 2524 z5746 from 1537 heaven 3772 by four 5064 corners; 746 and 2532 it came 2064 z5627 even y891 to x891 me: 1700

 11:6 Upon 1519 the which 3739 when I had fastened mine eyes, 816 z5660 I considered, 2657 z5707 and 2532 saw 1492 z5627 fourfooted beasts 5074 of the x3588 earth, 1093 and 2532 wild beasts, 2342 and 2532 creeping things, 2062 and 2532 fowls 4071 of the x3588 air. 3772

 11:7 And 1161 I heard 191 z5656 a voice 5456 saying 3004 z5723 unto me, 3427 Arise, 450 z5631 Peter; 4074 slay 2380 z5657 and 2532 eat. 5315 z5628

 11:8 But 1161 I said, 2036 z5627 Not so, 3365 Lord: 2962 for 3754 nothing 3956 common 2839 or 2228 unclean 169 hath y1525 z0 at any time y3763 x3762 entered 1525 z5627 into 1519 my 3450 mouth. 4750

 11:9 But 1161 the voice 5456 answered 611 z5662 me 3427 again 1537 1208 from 1537 heaven, 3772 What 3739 God 2316 hath cleansed, 2511 z5656 [that] call y2840 z0 not y3361 thou y4771 common. 2840 z5720 x3361 x4771

 11:10 And 1161 this 5124 was done 1096 z5633 y1909 three times: 5151 and 2532 all 537 were drawn up 385 z5681 again 3825 into 1519 heaven. 3772

 11:11 And, 2532 behold, 2400 z5628 immediately 1824 z0 there were y2186 z0 three 5140 men 435 already y1824 come 2186 z5627 unto 1909 the x3588 house 3614 where 1722 3739 I was, 2252 z5713 sent 649 z5772 from 575 Caesarea 2542 unto 4314 me. 3165

 11:12 And 1161 the x3588 Spirit 4151 bade 2036 z5627 me 3427 go with 4905 z5629 them, 846 nothing 3367 doubting. 1252 z5734 Moreover 1161 y2532 these 3778 six 1803 brethren 80 x2532 accompanied 4862 2064 z5627 me, 1698 and 2532 we entered 1525 z5627 into 1519 the x3588 man's 435 house: 3624

 11:13 And 5037 he shewed 518 z5656 us 2254 how 4459 he had seen 1492 z5627 an angel 32 in 1722 his 846 house, 3624 which stood 2476 z5685 and 2532 said 2036 z5631 unto him, 846 Send 649 z5657 men 435 to 1519 Joppa, 2445 and 2532 call for 3343 z5663 Simon, 4613 whose surname is 1941 z5746 Peter; 4074

 11:14 Who 3739 shall tell 2980 z5692 thee 4571 y4314 words, 4487 whereby 1722 3739 thou 4771 and 2532 all 3956 thy 4675 house 3624 shall be saved. 4982 z5701

 11:15 And 1161 as y1722 I 3165 began 756 z5670 to speak, 2980 z5721 the x3588 Holy 40 Ghost 4151 fell 1968 z5627 on 1909 them, 846 as 5618 2532 on 1909 us 2248 at 1722 the beginning. 746

 11:16 Then 1161 remembered x3415 I y3415 z5681 the x3588 word 4487 of the Lord, 2962 how 5613 that he said, 3004 z5707 John 2491 indeed 3303 baptized 907 z5656 with water; 5204 but 1161 ye 5210 shall be baptized 907 z5701 with 1722 the Holy 40 Ghost. 4151

 11:17 Forasmuch 1487 then 3767 as y5613 God 2316 gave 1325 z5656 them 846 the x3588 like 2470 gift 1431 as y2532 x5613 [he did] x2532 unto us, 2254 who believed 4100 z5660 on 1909 the x3588 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ; 5547 y1161 what 5101 was 2252 z5713 I, y1473 that I could 1415 withstand 2967 z5658 God? 2316

 11:18 When 1161 they heard 191 z5660 these things, 5023 they held their peace, 2270 z5656 and 2532 glorified 1392 z5707 God, 2316 saying, 3004 z5723 Then 686 hath y1325 z0 x1065 God 2316 also y2534 x2532 to the x3588 Gentiles 1484 granted 1325 z5656 repentance 3341 unto 1519 life. 2222

 11:19 ¶ Now 3767 y3303 they which were scattered abroad 1289 z5651 x3303 upon 575 the x3588 persecution 2347 that arose 1096 z5637 about 1909 Stephen 4736 travelled 1330 z5627 as far as 2193 Phenice, 5403 and 2532 Cyprus, 2954 and 2532 Antioch, 490 preaching 2980 z5723 the x3588 word 3056 to none 3367 but 1508 unto the Jews 2453 only. 3440

 11:20 And 1161 some 5100 of 1537 them 846 were 2258 z5713 men 435 of Cyprus 2953 and 2532 Cyrene, 2956 which, 3748 when they were come 1525 z5631 to 1519 Antioch, 490 spake 2980 z5707 unto 4314 the x3588 Grecians, 1675 preaching 2097 z5734 the x3588 Lord 2962 Jesus. 2424

 11:21 And 2532 the hand 5495 of the Lord 2962 was 2258 z5713 with 3326 them: 846 and 5037 a great 4183 number 706 believed, 4100 z5660 and turned 1994 z5656 unto 1909 the x3588 Lord. 2962

 11:22 ¶ Then 1161 tidings y3056 of y4012 these things y846 came 191 z5681 x3056 x4012 x846 unto 1519 the x3588 ears 3775 of the x3588 church 1577 which 3588 was in 1722 Jerusalem: 2414 and 2532 they sent forth 1821 z5656 Barnabas, 921 that he should go 1330 z5629 as far as 2193 Antioch. 490

 11:23 Who, 3739 when he came, 3854 z5637 and 2532 had seen 1492 z5631 the x3588 grace 5485 of God, 2316 was glad, 5463 z5644 and 2532 exhorted 3870 z5707 them all, 3956 that with purpose 4286 of heart 2588 they would cleave unto 4357 z5721 the x3588 Lord. 2962

 11:24 For 3754 he was 2258 z5713 a good 18 man, 435 and 2532 full 4134 of the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 and 2532 of faith: 4102 and 2532 much 2425 people 3793 was added 4369 z5681 unto the x3588 Lord. 2962

 11:25 Then 1161 departed 1831 z5627 Barnabas 921 to 1519 Tarsus, 5019 for to seek 327 z5658 Saul: 4569

 11:26 And 2532 when he had found 2147 z5631 him, 846 he brought 71 z5627 him 846 unto 1519 Antioch. 490 And 1161 it came to pass, 1096 z5633 that a whole 3650 year 1763 they 846 assembled themselves 4863 z5683 with 1722 the x3588 church, 1577 and 2532 taught 1321 z5658 much 2425 people. 3793 And 5037 the x3588 disciples 3101 were called 5537 z5658 Christians 5546 first 4412 in 1722 Antioch. 490

 11:27 ¶ And 1161 in 1722 these 5025 days 2250 came 2718 z5627 prophets 4396 from 575 Jerusalem 2414 unto 1519 Antioch. 490

 11:28 And 1161 there stood up 450 z5631 one 1520 of 1537 them 846 named 3686 Agabus, 13 and signified 4591 z5656 by 1223 the x3588 Spirit 4151 that there should x3195 be 1510 y3195 z5721 z5705 great 3173 dearth 3042 throughout 1909 all 3650 the x3588 world: 3625 which 3748 2532 came to pass 1096 z5633 in the days of 1909 Claudius 2804 Caesar. 2541

 11:29 Then 1161 the x3588 disciples, 3101 every y1538 man y846 x1538 according to 2531 his ability, 2141 5100 z5711 determined 3724 z5656 to send 3992 z5658 relief 1248 x1519 unto y1519 the x3588 brethren 80 which dwelt 2730 z5723 in 1722 Judaea: 2449

 11:30 Which 3739 also 2532 they did, 4160 z5656 and sent x649 it y649 z5660 to 4314 the x3588 elders 4245 by 1223 the hands 5495 of Barnabas 921 and 2532 Saul. 4569
