Matthew 28

1	In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher.
2	And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3	His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4	And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5	And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6	He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7	And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
8	And they departed quickly from the sepulcher with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9	And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshiped him.
10	Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
11	Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and showed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
12	And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,
13	saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
14	And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.
15	So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
16	Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17	And when they saw him, they worshiped him: but some doubted.
18	And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19	Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20	Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Genesis 19

1	And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
2	And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3	And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4	But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5	And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6	And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7	And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8	Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
9	And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
10	But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
11	And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
12	And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides a son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters? and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:
13	For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.
14	And Lot went out, and spoke unto his sons-in-law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons-in-law.
15	And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
16	And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
17	And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
18	And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:
19	Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
20	Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
21	And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.
22	Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
23	The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24	Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
25	And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26	But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27	And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD:
28	And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
29	And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
30	And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
31	And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32	Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
33	And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34	And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay last night with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
35	And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
36	Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
37	And the firstborn bore a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
38	And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.

Galatians 5

1	Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2	Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3	For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4	Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
5	For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6	For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
7	Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
8	This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.
9	A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
10	I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
11	And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offense of the cross ceased.
12	I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
13	For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
14	For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
15	But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
16	This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
17	For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
18	But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
19	Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20	Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21	Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22	But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23	Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24	And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25	If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26	Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

1 Timothy 3

1	This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2	A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3	Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4	One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5	(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6	Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7	Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8	Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
9	Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10	And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
11	Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
12	Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
13	For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
14	These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:
15	But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
16	And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

Job 20

1	Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
2	Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste.
3	I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer.
4	Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth,
5	That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?
6	Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds;
7	Yet he shall perish forever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?
8	He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night.
9	The eye also which saw him shall see him no more; neither shall his place any more behold him.
10	His children shall seek to please the poor, and his hands shall restore their goods.
11	His bones are full of the sin of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the dust.
12	Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue;
13	Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:
14	Yet his meat in his bowels is turned, it is the gall of asps within him.
15	He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly.
16	He shall suck the poison of asps: the viper's tongue shall slay him.
17	He shall not see the rivers, the floods, the brooks of honey and butter.
18	That which he labored for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down: according to his substance shall the restitution be, and he shall not rejoice therein.
19	Because he hath oppressed and hath forsaken the poor; because he hath violently taken away a house which he built not;
20	Surely he shall not feel quietness in his belly, he shall not save of that which he desired.
21	There shall none of his meat be left; therefore shall no man look for his goods.
22	In the fullness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits: every hand of the wicked shall come upon him.
23	When he is about to fill his belly, God shall cast the fury of his wrath upon him, and shall rain it upon him while he is eating.
24	He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of steel shall strike him through.
25	It is drawn, and cometh out of the body; yea, the glittering sword cometh out of his gall: terrors are upon him.
26	All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tabernacle.
27	The heaven shall reveal his iniquity; and the earth shall rise up against him.
28	The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath.
29	This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God.

Psalms 56

1	To the chief Musician upon Jonath-elem-rechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
2	Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
3	What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
4	In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
5	Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6	They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
7	Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
8	Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
9	When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
10	In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.
11	In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
12	Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
13	For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.

Proverbs 20

1	Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
2	The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
3	It is an honor for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.
4	The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5	Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
6	Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
7	The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.
8	A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
9	Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
10	Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD.
11	Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
12	The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
13	Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
14	It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
15	There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
16	Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
17	Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
18	Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.
19	He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
20	Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.
21	An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.
22	Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.
23	Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good.
24	Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?
25	It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make inquiry.
26	A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
27	The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
28	Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upheld by mercy.
29	The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head.
30	The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.

2 Chronicles 26

1	Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the room of his father Amaziah.
2	He built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
3	Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
4	And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
5	And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper.
6	And he went forth and warred against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and built cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
7	And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-baal, and the Mehunims.
8	And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah: and his name spread abroad even to the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened himself exceedingly.
9	Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, and at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
10	Also he built towers in the desert, and digged many wells: for he had much cattle, both in the low country, and in the plains: husbandmen also, and vinedressers in the mountains, and in Carmel: for he loved husbandry.
11	Moreover Uzziah had a host of fighting men, that went out to war by bands, according to the number of their account by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king's captains.
12	The whole number of the chief of the fathers of the mighty men of valor were two thousand and six hundred.
13	And under their hand was an army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14	And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the host shields, and spears, and helmets, and habergeons, and bows, and slings to cast stones.
15	And he made in Jerusalem engines, invented by cunning men, to be on the towers and upon the bulwarks, to shoot arrows and great stones withal. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvelously helped, till he was strong.
16	But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
17	And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him fourscore priests of the LORD, that were valiant men:
18	And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honor from the LORD God.
19	Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from beside the incense altar.
20	And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from thence; yea, himself hasted also to go out, because the LORD had smitten him.
21	And Uzziah the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, judging the people of the land.
22	Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, write.
23	So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of the burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.

Amos 6

1	Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
2	Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?
3	Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
4	That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
5	That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of music, like David;
6	That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
7	Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.
8	The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.
9	And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
10	And a man's uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.
11	For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
12	Shall horses run upon the rock? will one plow there with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:
13	Ye which rejoice in a thing of naught, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
14	But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.

Acts 10

1	There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,
2	A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.
3	He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.
4	And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.
5	And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:
6	He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.
7	And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;
8	And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.
9	On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:
10	And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,
11	And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
12	Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
13	And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
14	But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
15	And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
16	This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
17	Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,
18	And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
19	While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.
20	Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
21	Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?
22	And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by a holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
23	Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
24	And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.
25	And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
26	But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27	And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28	And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29	Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
30	And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31	And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32	Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
33	Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
34	Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35	But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
36	The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all: )
37	That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38	How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
39	And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
40	Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly;
41	Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
42	And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
43	To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.
44	While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
45	And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
46	For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
47	Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
48	And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
