Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Acts 9
⁴¹ Then 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 became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord.
⁴³ So it was that he stayed many days in Joppa with Simon, a tanner.
Acts 10
¹ There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
² a devout man and one who feared God with all his household, who gave alms generously to the people, and prayed to God always.
³ About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God coming in and saying to him, "Cornelius!"
⁴ And when he observed him, he was afraid, and said, "What is it, lord?" So he said to him, "Your prayers and your alms have come up for a memorial before God.
⁵ Now send men to Joppa, and send for Simon whose surname is Peter.
⁶ He is lodging with Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea. He will tell you what you must do."
⁷ And when the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier from among those who waited on him continually.
⁸ So when he had explained all these things to them, he sent them to Joppa.
