enviado paraque recibas la vista, | as thou camest, hath sent me, that y seas lleno del Espíritu Santo. 18 Y al instante le cayeron de los ojos unas como escamas, y al punto recibió la vista, y levantandose fué bautizado. 19 Y despues que tomó alimento, recobró fuerzas. Y estuvo Saulo algunos dias con los discípulos, que estaban en Damasco. 20 Y luego predicó á Christo en las sinagogas, que es el Hijo de Dios. 21 Y todos los que le oían, estaban atónitos, y decían. ¿No es este el que destruía en Jerusalem á los que invocaban este nombre; y por esto vinó acá para llevarlos presos á los Príncipes de los Sacerdotes? 22 Mas Saulo se esforzaba mucho mas, y confundía á los Judios que moraban en Damasco, afirmando que este es el Christo. 23 Y despues de muchos dias, los Judios tuvieron juntos consejo para matarle. 24 Mas sus asechanzas fueron conocidas de Saulo. Y guardaban las puertas de noche y de dia, para matarle. 25 Entonces los discípulos tomandole de noche, le descolgaron por el muro metido en una espuerta. 26 Y cuando Saulo vinó á Jerusalem, tentó de juntarse con los discípulos, mas todos le temían no creyendo que fuese discípulo. 27 Entonces Barnabas tomandole consigo, le llevó á los Apóstoles, y contó como había visto al Señor en el camino, y que le había hablado, y como en Damasco había hablado denodadamente en el nombre de Jesus. 28 Y entraba, y salía con ellos en Jerusalem. 29 Y hablaba denodadamente en el nombre del Señor Jesus, y dis thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. 18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized. 19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. 20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. 21-But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests? 22 But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ. 23 And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him: 24 But their laying wait was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him. 25 Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket. 26 And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple. 27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 28 And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. 29 And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and dis putaba con los Griegos: mas ellos | puted against the Grecians: but procuraban matarle. 30 Y cuando lo entendieron los hermanos, le acompañaron hásta Cesarea, y le enviaron á Tarso. 31 Entonces las Iglesias por toda la Judéa y Galiléa y Samaria tenían paz, y eran edificadas, y caminando en el temor del Señor, y con el consuelo del Espíritu Santo eran multiplicadas. 32 Y aconteció que Pedro visitando á todos, vinó tambien á los santos que moraban en Lidda. 33 Y halló allí á uno llamado Eneas, quien había ya ocho años, que yacía en cama, el cual erá paralítico. 34 Y Pedro le dijó, Eneas: JesuChristo te sana, levantate y hazte la cama, y al momento se levantó. 35 Y le vieron todos los moradores de Lidda y de Sarona, y se convirtieron al Señor. they went about to slay him. 30 Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus. 31 Then had the churches rest throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied. 32 ¶ And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. 33 And there he found a certain man named Eneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy. 34 And Peter said unto him, Eneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately. 35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord. 36 Había tambien en Joppe una 36 Now there was at Joppa a discípula llamada Tabitha, que in- certain disciple named Tabitha, terpretado quiere decir Dorcas. Es-which by interpretation is called ta erá llena de buenas obras, y de limosnas, que hacía. 37 Y aconteció en aquellos dias, que enfermando murió. Y despues de lavada, la pusieron en el cenáculo. 38 Y como Lidda estaba cerca de Joppe, oyendo los discípulos que Pedro estaba allí, le enviaron dos hombres rogandole: no te detengas de venir hásta a ellos. 39 Levantandose entonces Pedro, se fué con ellos; y cuando llegó, le llevaron al cenáculo, y le cercaron todas las viudas llorando, y mostrandole las túnicas y los vestidos que les hacía Dorcas, mientras que estaba entre ellos. 40 Entonces Pedro habiendolos hecho salir á todos fuera, puesto de rodillas oró, y volviendose hácia el 22 Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. 37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber. 38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them. 39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them. 40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said S & E cuerpo, dijo: Tabitha, levantate: | Tabitha, arise. And she opened y ella abrió los ojos: y viendo á her eyes: and when she saw Pe Pedro se sentó. ter, she sat up. 41 Y dandole la mano, la levantó: y llamando á los santos, y á las viudas, se la presentó viva. 42 Y esto fué notorio por todo Joppe, y muchos creyeron en el Señor. 43 Y aconteció que Pedro permaneció muchos dias en Joppe en casa de un curtidor llamado Simon. CAPITULO X. HABIA un varon en Cesarea Y llamado Cornelio, centurion de la compañia llamada Itálica. 2 Pio y temeroso de Dios con toda su casa, y que hacía muchas limosnas al pueblo, y que oraba á Dios siempre. 3 Este vió en vision manifiestamente como á la hora de nona, que un ángel de Dios entraba á él, y le decía: Cornelio. 41 And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up; and when he had called the saints and widows, he presented her alive. 42 And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord. 43 And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner. CHAPTER X. THERE was a certain man in 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 Y este fijando en él los ojos es- 4 And when he looked on him, pantado, dijo: ¿qué hay Señor? Y he was afraid, and said, What is le dijó; tus oraciones y tus limos-it, Lord? And he said unto him, nas han subido en memoria á la presencia de Dios. 5 Envía pues ahora hombres á Joppe, y haz venir á un cierto Simon, que tiene por sobrenombre Pedro. 6 Este posa en casa de un cierto Simon curtidor, que tiene su casa junto á la mar. El te dirá lo que te conviene hacer. 7 Y luego que el ángel que hablaba con Cornelio se hubo ido, llamó á dos de sus criados, y á un soldado temeroso de Dios, de aquellos que estaban á sus órdenes. 8 Y habiendoles contado todo esto, los envió á Joppe. 9 Y al dia siguiente yendo ellos su camino, y llegando cerca de la dad, Pedro subió á lo alto de la 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 casa á orar cerca de la hora de | housetop to pray about the sixth hour: sexta. 10 Y aconteció que sintiendose con hambre, quiso comer. Y mientras se lo preparaban, cayó en extasis. 11 Y vió el cielo abierto, y que descendía de él un vaso como un gran lienzo, que atado por los cuatro cabos, erá bajado del cielo á la tierra. 12 En el cual había de todos los quadrupedos de la tierra y fieras, y reptiles, y aves del cielo. 13 Y vinole una voz diciendo: levantate Pedro, mata, y come. 14 Mas Pedro dijó: No Señor, porque jamas he comido ninguna cosa comun é inmunda. 15 Y volvió la voz á decirle segunda vez: Lo que Dios ha purificado, no lo llames tú comun. 16 Y esto fué repetido por tres veces, y el vaso volvió á ser recogido en el cielo. 17 Y mientras Pedro estaba dudoso entre sí sobre cual sería la vision que había visto, he aquí los hombres que habían sido enviados de Cornelio, que preguntando por la casa de Simon, llegaron á la puerta. 18 Y llamando, preguntaron si un cierto Simon, que tenía por sobrenombre Pedro posaba allí. 19 Y pensando Pedro en la vision le dijó el Espíritu. He aquí tres hombres que te buscan. 20 Levantate pues, y desciende, y vé con ellos sin dudar, porque yo los he enviado. 21 Y descendiendo Pedro á los hombres que le eran enviados de Cornelio, dijo: he aquí yo soy el que buscais. ¿Cuál es la causa, porque habeis venido? 22 Y ellos digeron: el Centurion Cornelio, varon justo y temeroso de Dios, y que tiene el testimonio de toda la nacion de los Judios, ha 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 recibido aviso de Dios por un santo | Jews, was warned from God by a ángel de hacerte venir á su casa, y oir tus palabras. 23 Pedro entonces haciendolos entrar, los hospedó. Y al dia siguiente se levantó, y fuese con ellos. Y algunos de los hermanos de Joppe le acompañaron. 24 Y la mañana siguiente entraron en Cesarea. Y Cornelio los estaba esperando, habiendo llamado á sus parientes, y amigos mas íntimos. 25 Y cuando Pedro entraba, Cornelio le salió á recibir, y echandose á sus pies le adoro. 26 Mas Pedro le alzó, diciendo: levantate, que yo tambien soy hombre. 27 Y hablando con él entró, y halló á muchos que se habían juntado. 28 Y les dijó: Vosotros sabeis que no es lícito á un varon judio juntarse ó allegarse á un estrangero, mas Dios me ha mostrado, que no llamase á ningun hombre, comun ó inmundo. 29 Por esto he venido sin dudar, luego que he sido llamado: así que pregunto ¿porqué causa me habeis hecho venir? 30 Entonces dijó Cornelio: cuatro dias hace hoy, que yo estaba ayunando á esta hora, y á la hora de nona estaba orando en mi casa, y he aquí se pusó delante de mí un varon con una ropa resplandeciente, 31 Y dijo: Cornelio, tu oracion es oida, y tus limosnas han venido | en memoria delante de Dios. 32 Envia pues á Joppe, y haz llamar á Simon, que tiene por sobrenombre Pedro. Este posa en casa de Simon, el curtidor, junto á la mar, el cual cuando venga, te hablará. 33 Por esto envié inmediatamente por tí, y tú has hecho bien en haber venido; por tanto ahora estamos todos aquí presentes delante de Dios 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 Cesarea. 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 shewed 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, |
