22. They said, "Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous and God-fearing man well spoken of by the entire nation of the Jews, was divinely directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and hear a message from you."
23. So he invited them in and gave them lodging. And on the next day he got up and went away with them, and some of the brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
24. On the following day he entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them and had called together his relatives and close friends.
25. When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell at his feet and worshiped him.
26. But Peter raised him up, saying, "Stand up; I too am just a man."
27. As he talked with him, he entered and found many people assembled.
