Acts of the Apostles 10

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion of that which is called the Italian band;	1 Ητο δε τις ανθρωπος εν Καισαρεια ονοματι Κορνηλιος, εκατονταρχος εκ του ταγματος του λεγομενου Ιταλικου,
2 A religious man, and fearing God with all his house, giving much alms to the people, and always praying to God.	2 ευσεβης και φοβουμενος τον Θεον μετα παντος του οικου αυτου, οστις και εκαμνεν ελεημοσυνας εις τον λαον πολλας και εδεετο του Θεου διαπαντος?
3 This man saw in a vision manifestly, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in unto him, and saying to him: Cornelius.	3 ουτος ειδε φανερα δι' οραματος περι την εννατην ωραν της ημερας αγγελον του Θεου, οτι εισηλθε προς αυτον και ειπε προς αυτον? Κορνηλιε.
4 And he, beholding him, being seized with fear, said: What is it, Lord? And he said to him: Thy prayers and thy alms are ascended for a memorial in the sight of God.	4 Ο δε ατενισας εις αυτον και εμφοβος γενομενος, ειπε? Τι ειναι, Κυριε; Και ειπε προς αυτον? Αι προσευχαι σου και αι ελεημοσυναι σου ανεβησαν εις μνημοσυνον σου ενωπιον του Θεου.
5 And now send men to Joppe, and call hither one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:	5 Και τωρα πεμψον εις Ιοππην ανθρωπους και προσκαλεσον τον Σιμωνα, οστις επονομαζεται Πετρος?
6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side. He will tell thee what thou must do.	6 ουτος ξενιζεται παρα τινι Σιμωνι βυρσοδεψη, εχοντι οικιαν πλησιον της θαλασσης. Ουτος θελει σοι λαλησει τι πρεπει να καμνης.
7 And when the angel who spoke to him was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a soldier who feared the Lord, of them that were under him.	7 Καθως δε ανεχωρησεν ο αγγελος ο λαλων προς τον Κορνηλιον, εφωναξε δυο εκ των υπηρετων αυτου και ενα στρατιωτην ευσεβη εκ των διαμενοντων παντοτε πλησιον αυτου,
8 To whom when he had related all, he sent them to Joppe.	8 και διηγηθεις προς αυτους τα παντα, απεστειλεν αυτους εις την Ιοππην.
9 And on the next day, whilst they were going on their journey, and drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up to the higher parts of the house to pray, about the sixth hour.	9 Τη δε επαυριον, ενω εκεινοι ωδοιπορουν και επλησιαζον εις την πολιν, ανεβη ο Πετρος εις το δωμα δια να προσευχηθη περι την εκτην ωραν.
10 And being hungry, he was desirous to taste somewhat. And as they were preparing, there came upon him an ecstasy of mind.	10 Και πεινασας ηθελε να φαγη? ενω δε ητοιμαζον, επηλθεν επ' αυτον εκστασις,
11 And he saw the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great linen sheet let down by the four corners from heaven to the earth:	11 και θεωρει τον ουρανον ανεωγμενον και καταβαινον επ' αυτον σκευος τι ως σινδονα μεγαλην, το οποιον ητο δεδεμενον απο των τεσσαρων ακρων και κατεβιβαζετο επι την γην,
12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air.	12 εντος του οποιου υπηρχον παντα τα τετραποδα της γης και τα θηρια και τα ερπετα και τα πετεινα του ουρανου.
13 And there came a voice to him: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.	13 Και εγεινε φωνη προς αυτον? Σηκωθεις, Πετρε, σφαξον και φαγε?
14 But Peter said: Far be it from me; for I never did eat any thing that is common and unclean.	14 Ο δε Πετρος ειπε? Μη γενοιτο, Κυριε? διοτι ουδεποτε εφαγον ουδεν βεβηλον η ακαθαρτον.
15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time: That which God hath cleansed, do not thou call common.	15 Και παλιν εκ δευτερου εγεινε φωνη προς αυτον? Οσα ο Θεος εκαθαρισε, συ μη λεγε βεβηλα.
16 And this was done thrice; and presently the vessel was taken up into heaven.	16 Εγεινε δε τουτο τρις, και παλιν ανεληφθη το σκευος εις τον ουρανον.
17 Now, whilst Peter was doubting within himself, what the vision that he had seen should mean, behold the men who were sent from Cornelius, inquiring for Simon's house, stood at the gate.	17 Ενω δε ο Πετρος ητο εν απορια καθ' εαυτον τι εσημαινε το οραμα, το οποιον ειδεν, ιδου, οι ανθρωποι οι απεσταλμενοι παρα του Κορνηλιου ερωτησαντες και μαθοντες την οικιαν του Σιμωνος εφθασαν εις την πυλην,
18 And when they had called, they asked, if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, were lodged there.	18 και φωναξαντες ηρωτων αν ο Σιμων ο επονομαζομενος Πετρος ξενιζεται ενταυθα.
19 And as Peter was thinking of the vision, the Spirit said to him: Behold three men seek thee.	19 Και ενω ο Πετρος διελογιζετο περι του οραματος, ειπε προς αυτον το Πνευμα? Ιδου, τρεις ανθρωποι σε ζητουσι?
20 Arise, therefore, get thee down and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.	20 σηκωθεις λοιπον καταβηθι και υπαγε μετ' αυτων, μηδολως δισταζων, διοτι εγω απεστειλα αυτους.
21 Then Peter, going down to the men, said: Behold, I am he whom you seek; what is the cause for which you are come?	21 Καταβας δε ο Πετρος προς τους ανθρωπους τους απεσταλμενους προς αυτον απο του Κορνηλιου, ειπεν? Ιδου, εγω ειμαι εκεινος τον οποιον ζητειτε? τις η αιτια δια την οποιαν ηλθετε;
22 Who said: Cornelius, a centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and having good testimony from all the nation of the Jews, received an answer of an holy angel, to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.	22 Οι δε ειπον? Κορνηλιος ο εκατονταρχος, ανηρ δικαιος και φοβουμενος τον Θεον και μαρτυρουμενος υπο ολου του εθνους των Ιουδαιων, διεταχθη θεοθεν υπο αγιου αγγελου να σε προσκαλεση εις τον οικον αυτου και να ακουση λογους παρα σου.
23 Then bringing them in, he lodged them. And the day following he arose, and went with them: and some of the brethren from Joppe accompanied him.	23 Προσκαλεσας λοιπον αυτους εσω, εφιλοξενησε. Τη δε επαυριον εξηλθεν ο Πετρος μετ' αυτων, και τινες των αδελφων των απο της Ιοππης υπηγον μετ' αυτον,
24 And the morrow after, he entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, having called together his kinsmen and special friends.	24 και τη επαυριον εισηλθον εις την Καισαρειαν. Ο δε Κορνηλιος περιεμενεν αυτους, συγκαλεσας τους συγγενεις αυτου και τους οικειους φιλους.
25 And it came to pass, that when Peter was come in, Cornelius came to meet him, Cornelius came to meet him, and falling at his feet adored.	25 Ως δε εισηλθεν ο Πετρος, ελθων ο Κορνηλιος εις συναντησιν αυτου, επεσεν εις τους ποδας αυτου και προσεκυνησεν.
26 But Peter lifted him up, saying: Arise, I myself also am a man.	26 Αλλ' ο Πετρος εσηκωσεν αυτον, λεγων? Σηκωθητι? και εγω αυτος ανθρωπος ειμαι.
27 And talking with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.	27 Και συνομιλων μετ' αυτου εισηλθε και ευρισκει συνηγμενους πολλους,
28 And he said to them: You know how abominable it is for a man that is a Jew, to keep company or to come unto one of another nation: but God hath shewed to me, to call no man common or unclean.	28 και ειπε προς αυτους? Σεις εξευρετε οτι ειναι ασυγχωρητον εις ανθρωπον Ιουδαιον να συναναστρεφηται η να πλησιαζη εις αλλοφυλον? ο Θεος ομως εδειξεν εις εμε να μη λεγω μηδενα ανθρωπον βεβηλον η ακαθαρτον?
29 For which cause, making no doubt, I came when I was sent for. I ask, therefore, for what cause you have sent for me?	29 οθεν και προσκληθεις ηλθον χωρις αντιλογιας. Ερωτω λοιπον δια τινα λογον με προσεκαλεσατε;
30 And Cornelius said: Four days ago, unto this hour, I was praying in my house, at the ninth hour, and behold a man stood before me in white apparel, and said:	30 Και ο Κορνηλιος ειπε? Απο τεσσαρων ημερων ημην νηστευων μεχρι της ωρας ταυτης, και την εννατην ωραν προσηυχομην εν τω οικω μου? και ιδου, εσταθη ενωπιον μου ανηρ με ενδυματα λαμπρα,
31 Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.	31 και λεγει? Κορνηλιε, εισηκουσθη η προσευχη σου και αι ελεημοσυναι σου εμνημονευθησαν ενωπιον του Θεου.
32 Send therefore to Joppe, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.	32 Πεμψον λοιπον εις Ιοππην και προσκαλεσον τον Σιμωνα, οστις επονομαζεται Πετρος? ουτος ξενιζεται εν τη οικια Σιμωνος του βυρσοδεψου πλησιον της θαλασσης? οστις ελθων θελει σοι λαλησει.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee: and thou hast done well in coming. Now therefore all we are present in thy sight, to hear all things whatsoever are commanded thee by the Lord.	33 Ευθυς λοιπον επεμψα προς σε, και συ εκαμες καλα οτι ηλθες. Τωρα λοιπον ημεις παντες παρισταμεθα ενωπιον του Θεου, δια να ακουσωμεν παντα οσα προσεταχθησαν εις σε υπο του Θεου.
34 And Peter opening his mouth, said: In very deed I perceive, that God is not a respecter of persons.	34 Τοτε ο Πετρος ανοιξας το στομα ειπεν? Επ' αληθειας γνωριζω οτι δεν ειναι προσωποληπτης ο Θεος,
35 But in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh justice, is acceptable to him.	35 αλλ' εν παντι εθνει, οστις φοβειται αυτον και εργαζεται δικαιοσυνην, ειναι δεκτος εις αυτον.
36 God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all.)	36 Τον λογον, τον οποιον απεστειλε προς τους υιους Ισραηλ ευαγγελιζομενος ειρηνην δια Ιησου Χριστου? ουτος ειναι ο Κυριος παντων?
37 You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,	37 τον λογον τουτον σεις εξευρετε, οστις εκηρυχθη καθ' ολην την Ιουδαιαν, αρχισας απο της Γαλιλαιας, μετα το βαπτισμα, το οποιον εκηρυξεν ο Ιωαννης,
38 Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.	38 πως ο Θεος εχρισε τον Ιησουν τον απο Ναζαρετ με Πνευμα Αγιον και με δυναμιν, οστις διηλθεν ευεργετων και θεραπευων παντας τους καταδυναστευομενους υπο του διαβολου, διοτι ο Θεος ητο μετ' αυτου?
39 And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.	39 και ημεις ειμεθα μαρτυρες παντων οσα εκαμε και εν τη γη των Ιουδαιων και εν Ιερουσαλημ? τον οποιον εφονευσαν κρεμασαντες επι ξυλου.
40 Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,	40 Τουτον ο Θεος ανεστησε την τριτην ημεραν και εκαμεν αυτον να εμφανισθη
41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he arose again from the dead;	41 ουχι εις παντα τον λαον, αλλ' εις μαρτυρας τους προδιωρισμενους υπο του Θεου, εις ημας, οιτινες συνεφαγομεν και συνεπιομεν μετ' αυτου, αφου ανεστη εκ νεκρων?
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was appointed by God, to be judge of the living and of the dead.	42 και παρηγγειλεν εις ημας να κηρυξωμεν προς τον λαον και να μαρτυρησωμεν οτι αυτος ειναι ο ωρισμενος υπο του Θεου κριτης ζωντων και νεκρων.
43 To him all the prophets give testimony, that by his name all receive remission of sins, who believe in him.	43 Εις τουτον παντες οι προφηται μαρτυρουσιν, οτι δια του ονοματος αυτου θελει λαβει αφεσιν αμαρτιων πας ο πιστευων εις αυτον.
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them that heard the word.	44 Ενω ετι ελαλει ο Πετρος τους λογους τουτους, επηλθε το Πνευμα το Αγιον επι παντας τους ακουοντας τον λογον.
45 And the faithful of the circumcision, who came with Peter, were astonished, for that the grace of the Holy Ghost was poured out upon the Gentiles also.	45 Και εξεπλαγησαν οι εκ περιτομης πιστοι, οσοι ηλθον μετα του Πετρου, οτι η δωρεα του Αγιου Πνευματος εξεχυθη και επι τα εθνη?
46 For they heard them speaking with tongues, and magnifying God.	46 διοτι ηκουον αυτους λαλουντας γλωσσας και μεγαλυνοντας τον Θεον. Τοτε απεκριθη ο Πετρος?
47 Then Peter answered: Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?	47 Μηπως δυναται τις να εμποδιση το υδωρ, ωστε να μη βαπτισθωσιν ουτοι, οιτινες ελαβον το Πνευμα το Αγιον καθως και ημεις;
48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they desired him to tarry with them some days.	48 Και προσεταξεν αυτους να βαπτισθωσιν εις το ονομα του Κυριου. Τοτε παρεκαλεσαν αυτον να διαμεινη ημερας τινας.
