Acts 使徒行传_Ac_11
1The apostles and the brothers throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
2So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcised believers criticized him
3and said, "You went into the house of uncircumcised men and ate with them."
4Peter began and explained everything to them precisely 1 as it had happened:
5"I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision. I saw something like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came down to where I was.
6I looked into it and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles 2, and birds of the air.
7Then I heard a voice telling me, 'Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.'
8"I replied, 'Surely not, Lord! Nothing impure 3 or unclean has ever entered my mouth.'
9"The voice spoke 4 from heaven a second time, 'Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.'
10This happened three times, and then it was all pulled up to heaven again.
11"Right then three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea stopped at the house where I was staying.
12The Spirit told me to have no hesitation 5 about going with them. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man's house.
13He told us how he had seen an angel appear in his house and say, 'Send to Joppa for Simon who is called Peter.
14He will bring you a message through which you and all your household will be saved.'
15"As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning.
16Then I remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
17So if God gave them the same gift as he gave us, who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could oppose God?"
18When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, "So then, God has granted even the Gentiles repentance 6 unto life."
19Now those who had been scattered 7 by the persecution 8 in connection with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, telling the message only to Jews.
20Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus.
21The Lord's hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.
22News of this reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
23When he arrived and saw the evidence of the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts.
24He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.
25Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,
26and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year Barnabas and Saul met with the church and taught great numbers of people. The disciples 9 were called Christians 10 first at Antioch.
27During this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28One of them, named Agabus, stood up and through the Spirit predicted that a severe famine would spread over the entire Roman world. (This happened during the reign 11 of Claudius.)
29The disciples, each according to his ability, decided 12 to provide help for the brothers living in Judea.
30This they did, sending their gift to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
