11:1  audierunt autem apostoli et            1.  And the apostles and brethren that
fratres qui erant in Iudaea quoniam et       were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles
gentes receperunt verbum Dei                 had also received the word of God.

11:2  cum ascendisset autem Petrus in        2.  And when Peter was come up to
Hierosolymam disceptabant adversus           Jerusalem, they that were of the
illum qui erant ex circumcisione             circumcision contended with him,

11:3  dicentes quare introisti ad viros      3.  Saying, Thou wentest in to men
praeputium habentes et manducasti cum        uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.
illis

11:4  incipiens autem Petrus exponebat       4.  But Peter rehearsed the matter from
illis ordinem dicens                         the beginning, and expounded it by
                                             order unto them, saying,

11:5  ego eram in civitate Ioppe orans       5.  I was in the city of Joppa praying:
et vidi in excessu mentis visionem           and in a trance I saw a vision, A
descendens vas quoddam velut linteum         certain vessel descend, as it had been
magnum quattuor initiis submitti de          a great sheet, let down from heaven by
caelo et venit usque ad me                   four corners; and it came even to me:

11:6  in quod intuens considerabam et        6.  Upon the which when I had fastened
vidi quadrupedia terrae et bestias et        mine eyes, I considered, and saw
reptilia et volatilia caeli                  fourfooted beasts of the earth, and
                                             wild beasts, and creeping things, and
                                             fowls of the air.

11:7  audivi autem et vocem dicentem         7.  And I heard a voice saying unto me,
mihi surgens Petre occide et manduca         Arise, Peter; slay and eat.

11:8  dixi autem nequaquam Domine quia       8.  But I said, Not so, Lord: for
commune aut inmundum numquam introivit       nothing common or unclean hath at any
in os meum                                   time entered into my mouth.

11:9  respondit autem vox secundo de         9.  But the voice answered me again
caelo quae Deus mundavit tu ne commune       from heaven, What God hath cleansed,
dixeris                                      that call not thou common.

11:10  hoc autem factum est per ter et       10.  And this was done three times: and
recepta sunt rursum omnia in caelum          all were drawn up again into heaven.

11:11  et ecce confestim tres viri           11.  And, behold, immediately there
adstiterunt in domo in qua eram missi a      were three men already come unto the
Caesarea ad me                               house where I was, sent from Caesarea
                                             unto me.

11:12  dixit autem Spiritus mihi ut          12.  And the Spirit bade me go with
irem cum illis nihil haesitans venerunt      them, nothing doubting. Moreover these
autem mecum et sex fratres isti et           six brethren accompanied me, and we
ingressi sumus in domum viri                 entered into the man's house:

11:13  narravit autem nobis quomodo          13.  And he shewed us how he had seen
vidisset angelum in domo sua stantem et      an angel in his house, which stood and
dicentem sibi mitte in Ioppen et             said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and
accersi Simonem qui cognominatur Petrus      call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;

11:14  qui loquetur tibi verba in            14.  Who shall tell thee words, whereby
quibus salvus eris tu et universa domus      thou and all thy house shall be saved.
tua

11:15  cum autem coepissem loqui             15.  And as I began to speak, the Holy
decidit Spiritus Sanctus super eos           Ghost fell on them, as on us at the
sicut et in nos in initio                    beginning.

11:16  recordatus sum autem verbi            16.  Then remembered I the word of the
Domini sicut dicebat Iohannes quidem         Lord, how that he said, John indeed
baptizavit aqua vos autem baptizabimini      baptized with water; but ye shall be
Spiritu Sancto                               baptized with the Holy Ghost.

11:17  si ergo eandem gratiam dedit          17.  Forasmuch then as God gave them
illis Deus sicut et nobis qui                the like gift as he did unto us, who
credidimus in Dominum Iesum Christum         believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what
ego quis eram qui possem prohibere Deum      was I, that I could withstand God?

11:18  his auditis tacuerunt et              18.  When they heard these things, they
glorificaverunt Deum dicentes ergo et        held their peace, and glorified God,
gentibus Deus paenitentiam ad vitam          saying, Then hath God also to the
dedit                                        Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

11:19  et illi quidem qui dispersi           19.  Now they which were scattered
fuerant a tribulatione quae facta            abroad upon the persecution that arose
fuerat sub Stephano perambulaverunt          about Stephen travelled as far as
usque Foenicen et Cyprum et Antiochiam       Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch,
nemini loquentes verbum nisi solis           preaching the word to none but unto the
Iudaeis                                      Jews only.

11:20  erant autem quidam ex eis viri        20.  And some of them were men of
cyprii et cyrenei qui cum introissent        Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they
Antiochiam loquebantur et ad Graecos         were come to Antioch, spake unto the
adnuntiantes Dominum Iesum                   Grecians, preaching the LORD Jesus.

11:21  et erat manus Domini cum eis          21.  And the hand of the Lord was with
multusque numerus credentium conversus       them: and a great number believed, and
est ad Dominum                               turned unto the Lord.

11:22  pervenit autem sermo ad aures         22.  Then tidings of these things came
ecclesiae quae erat Hierosolymis super       unto the ears of the church which was
istis et miserunt Barnaban usque             in Jerusalem: and they sent forth
Antiochiam                                   Barnabas, that he should go as far as
                                             Antioch.

11:23  qui cum pervenisset et vidisset       23.  Who, when he came, and had seen
gratiam Dei gavisus est et hortabatur        the grace of God, was glad, and
omnes proposito cordis permanere in          exhorted them all, that with purpose of
Domino                                       heart they would cleave unto the Lord.

11:24  quia erat vir bonus et plenus         24.  For he was a good man, and full of
Spiritu Sancto et fide et adposita est       the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much
turba multa Domino                           people was added unto the Lord.

11:25  profectus est autem Tarsum ut         25.  Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus,
quaereret Saulum quem cum invenisset         for to seek Saul:
perduxit Antiochiam

11:26  et annum totum conversati sunt        26.  And when he had found him, he
in ecclesia et docuerunt turbam multam       brought him unto Antioch. And it came
ita ut cognominarentur primum                to pass, that a whole year they
Antiochiae discipuli Christiani              assembled themselves with the church,
                                             and taught much people. And the
                                             disciples were called Christians first
                                             in Antioch.

11:27  in his autem diebus                   27.  And in these days came prophets
supervenerunt ab Hierosolymis prophetae      from Jerusalem unto Antioch.
Antiochiam

11:28  et surgens unus ex eis nomine         28.  And there stood up one of them
Agabus significabat per Spiritum famem       named Agabus, and signified by the
magnam futuram in universo orbe              Spirit that there should be great
terrarum quae facta est sub Claudio          dearth throughout all the world: which
                                             came to pass in the days of Claudius
                                             Caesar.

11:29  discipuli autem prout quis            29.  Then the disciples, every man
habebat proposuerunt singuli eorum in        according to his ability, determined to
ministerium mittere habitantibus in          send relief unto the brethren which
Iudaea fratribus                             dwelt in Judaea:

11:30  quod et fecerunt mittentes ad         30.  Which also they did, and sent it
seniores per manus Barnabae et Sauli         to the elders by the hands of Barnabas
                                             and Saul.
