WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, by name Cornelius, a centurion from a cohort that is called Italian,
1 Y HABÍA un varón en Cesarea llamado Cornelio, centurión de la compañía que se llamaba la Italiana,
1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
2 pious, and fearing God with all his house, also doing many kind acts to the people, and always imploring God;
2 Pío y temeroso de Dios con toda su casa, y que hacía muchas limosnas al pueblo, y oraba á Dios siempre.
2 a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.
3 he saw in a vision openly, as it were the ninth hour of the day, a messenger of God coming in to him, and saying to him, “Cornelius”;
3 Este vió en visión manifiestamente, como á la hora nona del día, que un ángel de Dios entraba á él, y le decía: Cornelio.
3 At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, “Cornelius!”
4 and he having looked earnestly on him, and becoming afraid, said, “What is it, Lord?” And he said to him, “Your prayers and your kind acts came up for a memorial before God,
4 Y él, puestos en él los ojos, espantado, dijo: ¿Qué es, Señor? Y díjole: Tus oraciones y tus limosnas han subido en memoria á la presencia de Dios.
4 He, fastening his eyes on him and being frightened, said, “What is it, Lord?” He said to him, “Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.
5 and now send men to Joppa, and send for a certain one Simon, who is surnamed Peter;
5 Envía pues ahora hombres á Joppe, y haz venir á un Simón, que tiene por sobrenombre Pedro.
5 Now send men to Joppa, and get Simon, who is also called Peter.
6 this one lodges with a certain Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea; this one will speak to you what you must do.”
6 Este posa en casa de un Simón, curtidor, que tiene su casa junto á la mar: él te dirá lo que te conviene hacer.
6 He is staying with a tanner named Simon, whose house is by the seaside.
7 And when the messenger who is speaking to Cornelius went away, having called two of his servants, and a pious soldier of those waiting on him continually,
7 E ido el ángel que hablaba con Cornelio, llamó dos de sus criados, y un devoto soldado de los que le asistían;
7 When the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who waited on him continually.
8 and having expounded all things to them, he sent them to Joppa.
8 A los cuales, después de habérselo contado todo, los envió á Joppe.
8 Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
9 And on the next day, as these are proceeding on the way, and are drawing near to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour,
9 Y al día siguiente, yendo ellos su camino, y llegando cerca de la ciudad, Pedro subió á la azotea á orar, cerca de la hora de sexta;
9 Now on the next day as they were on their journey and got close to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray at about noon.
10 and he became very hungry, and wished to eat; and they making ready, there fell on him a trance,
10 Y aconteció que le vino una grande hambre, y quiso comer; pero mientras disponían, sobrevínole un éxtasis;
10 He became hungry and desired to eat, but while they were preparing, he fell into a trance.
11 and he beholds Heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending to him, as a great sheet, bound at the four corners, and let down on the earth,
11 Y vió el cielo abierto, y que descendía un vaso, como un gran lienzo, que atado de los cuatro cabos era bajado á la tierra;
11 He saw heaven opened and a certain container descending to him, like a great sheet let down by four corners on the earth,
12 in which were all the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the sky,
12 En el cual había de todos los animales cuadrúpedos de la tierra, y reptiles, y aves del cielo.
12 in which were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, reptiles, and birds of the sky.
13 and there came a voice to him: “Having risen, Peter, slay and eat.”
13 Y le vino una voz: Levántate, Pedro, mata y come.
13 A voice came to him, “Rise, Peter, kill and eat!”
14 And Peter said, “Not so, Lord; because at no time did I eat anything common or unclean”;
14 Entonces Pedro dijo: Señor, no; porque ninguna cosa común é inmunda he comido jamás.
14 But Peter said, “Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.”
15 and [there is] a voice again a second time to him: “What God cleansed, you do not declare common”;
15 Y volvió la voz hacia él la segunda vez: Lo que Dios limpió, no lo llames tú común.
15 A voice came to him again the second time, “What God has cleansed, you must not call unclean.”
16 and this was done three times, and again was the vessel received up to Heaven.
16 Y esto fué hecho por tres veces; y el vaso volvió á ser recogido en el cielo.
16 This was done three times, and immediately the thing was received up into heaven.
17 And as Peter was perplexed in himself what the vision that he saw might be, then, behold, the men who have been sent from Cornelius, having made inquiry for the house of Simon, stood at the gate,
17 Y estando Pedro dudando dentro de sí qué sería la visión que había visto, he aquí, los hombres que habían sido enviados por Cornelio, que, preguntando por la casa de Simón, llegaron á la puerta.
17 Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon’s house, stood before the gate,
18 and having called, they were asking if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, lodges here.
18 Y llamando, preguntaron si un Simón que tenía por sobrenombre Pedro, posaba allí.
18 and called and asked whether Simon, who was also called Peter, was lodging there.
19 And Peter thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men seek you;
19 Y estando Pedro pensando en la visión, le dijo el Espíritu: He aquí, tres hombres te buscan.
19 While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men seek you.
20 but having risen, go down and go on with them, doubting nothing, because I have sent them”;
20 Levántate, pues, y desciende, y no dudes ir con ellos; porque yo los he enviado.
20 But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”
21 and Peter having come down to the men who have been sent from Cornelius to him, said, “Behold, I am he whom you seek, what [is] the cause for which you are present?”
21 Entonces Pedro, descendiendo á los hombres que eran enviados por Cornelio, dijo: He aquí, yo soy el que buscáis: ¿cuál es la causa por la que habéis venido?
21 Peter went down to the men, and said, “Behold, I am he whom you seek. Why have you come?”
22 And they said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a man righteous and fearing God, well testified to, also, by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely warned by a holy messenger to send for you, to his house, and to hear sayings from you.”
22 Y ellos dijeron: Cornelio, el centurión, varón justo y temeroso de Dios, y que tiene testimonio de toda la nación de los Judíos, ha recibido respuesta por un santo ángel, de hacerte venir á su casa, y oir de ti palabras.
22 They said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the nation of the Jews, was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to listen to what you say.”
23 Having called them in, therefore, he lodged them, and on the next day Peter went forth with them, and certain of the brothers from Joppa went with him,
23 Entonces metiéndolos dentro, los hospedó. Y al día siguiente, levantándose, se fué con ellos; y le acompañaron algunos de los hermanos de Joppe.
23 So he called them in and provided a place to stay. On the next day Peter arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
24 and on the next day they entered into Caesarea; and Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and near friends,
24 Y al otro día entraron en Cesarea. Y Cornelio los estaba esperando, habiendo llamado á sus parientes y los amigos más familiares.
24 On the next day they entered into Caesarea. Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and his near friends.
25 and as it came that Peter entered in, Cornelius having met him, having fallen at [his] feet, worshiped [him];
25 Y como Pedro entró, salió Cornelio á recibirle; y derribándose á sus pies, adoró.
25 When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell down at his feet, and worshiped him.
26 and Peter raised him, saying, “Stand up; I am also a man myself”;
26 Mas Pedro le levantó, diciendo: Levántate; yo mismo también soy hombre.
26 But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up! I myself am also a man.”
27 and talking with him he went in, and finds many having come together.
27 Y hablando con él, entró, y halló á muchos que se habían juntado.
27 As he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered together.
28 And he said to them, “You know how it is unlawful for a man, a Jew, to keep company with, or to come to, one of another race, but God showed to me to call no man common or unclean;
28 Y les dijo: Vosotros sabéis que es abominable á un varón Judío juntarse ó llegarse á extranjero; mas me ha mostrado Dios que á ningún hombre llame común ó inmundo;
28 He said to them, “You yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one of another nation, but God has shown me that I shouldn’t call any man unholy or unclean.
29 therefore also without contradicting I came, having been sent for; I ask, therefore, for what matter you sent for me?”
29 Por lo cual, llamado, he venido sin dudar. Así que pregunto: ¿por qué causa me habéis hecho venir?
29 Therefore I also came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?”
30 And Cornelius said, “Four days ago until this hour, I was fasting, and [at] the ninth hour praying in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in radiant clothing,
30 Entonces Cornelio dijo: Cuatro días ha que á esta hora yo estaba ayuno; y á la hora de nona estando orando en mi casa, he aquí, un varón se puso delante de mí en vestido resplandeciente.
30 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 he said, Cornelius, your prayer was heard, and your kind acts were remembered before God;
31 Y dijo: Cornelio, tu oración es oída, y tus limosnas han venido en memoria en la presencia de Dios.
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
32 send, therefore, to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter; this one lodges in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea, who having come, will speak to you;
32 Envía pues á Joppe, y haz venir á un Simón, que tiene por sobrenombre Pedro; éste posa en casa de Simón, curtidor, junto á la mar; el cual venido, te hablará.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is also called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.’
33 at once, therefore, I sent to you; you also did well, having come; now, therefore, we are all present before God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God.”
33 Así que, luego envié á ti; y tú has hecho bien en venir. Ahora pues, todos nosotros estamos aquí en la presencia de Dios, para oir todo lo que Dios te ha mandado.
33 Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God.”
34 And Peter having opened his mouth, said, “Of a truth, I perceive that God is not favoring by appearance,
34 Entonces Pedro, abriendo su boca, dijo: Por verdad hallo que Dios no hace acepción de personas;
34 Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism;
35 but in every nation he who is fearing Him, and is working righteousness, is acceptable to Him;
35 Sino que de cualquiera nación que le teme y obra justicia, se agrada.
35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
36 the word that He sent to the sons of Israel, proclaiming good news—peace through Jesus Christ (this One is Lord of all),
36 Envió palabra [Dios] á los hijos de Israel, anunciando la paz por Jesucristo; éste es el Señor de todos.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—
37 you have known the word that came throughout all Judea, having begun from Galilee, after the immersion that John preached;
37 Vosotros sabéis lo que fué divulgado por toda Judea; comenzando desde Galilea después del bautismo que Juan predicó,
37 you yourselves know what happened, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 Jesus who [is] from Nazareth—how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and power; who went through, doing good, and healing all those oppressed by the Devil, because God was with Him;
38 [Cuanto] á Jesús de Nazaret; cómo le ungió Dios de Espíritu Santo y de potencia; el cual anduvo haciendo bienes, y sanando á todos los oprimidos del diablo; porque Dios era con él.
38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
39 and we are witnesses of all things that He did, both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem—whom they slew, having hanged [Him] on a tree.
39 Y nosotros somos testigos de todas las cosas que hizo en la tierra de Judea, y en Jerusalem; al cual mataron colgándole en un madero.
39 We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also killed, hanging him on a tree.
40 This One God raised up [on] the third day, and gave Him to become visible,
40 A éste levantó Dios al tercer día, é hizo que apareciese manifiesto,
40 God raised him up the third day and gave him to be revealed,
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses, to those having been chosen before by God—to us who ate with [Him], and drank with Him, after His rising out of the dead;
41 No á todo el pueblo, sino á los testigos que Dios antes había ordenado, [es á saber], á nosotros que comimos y bebimos con él, después que resucitó de los muertos.
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
42 and He commanded us to preach to the people, and to fully testify that it is He who has been ordained judge of living and dead by God—
42 Y nos mandó que predicásemos al pueblo, y testificásemos que él es el que Dios ha puesto por Juez de vivos y muertos.
42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the dead.
43 to this One do all the Prophets testify, that through His Name everyone that is believing in Him receives forgiveness of sins.”
43 A éste dan testimonio todos los profetas, de que todos los que en él creyeren, recibirán perdón de pecados por su nombre.
43 All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”
44 While Peter is yet speaking these sayings, the Holy Spirit fell on all those hearing the word,
44 Estando aún hablando Pedro estas palabras, el Espíritu Santo cayó sobre todos los que oían el sermón.
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word.
45 and those of circumcision [who were] believing were astonished—as many as came with Peter—because the gift of the Holy Spirit has also been poured out on the nations,
45 Y se espantaron los fieles que eran de la circuncisión, que habían venido con Pedro, de que también sobre los Gentiles se derramase el don del Espíritu Santo.
45 They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on the Gentiles.
46 for they were hearing them speaking with tongues and magnifying God.
46 Porque los oían que hablaban en lenguas, y que magnificaban á Dios.
46 For they heard them speaking in other languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
47 Then Peter answered, “Is anyone able to forbid the water, that these may not be immersed, who received the Holy Spirit—even as us also?”
47 Entonces respondió Pedro: ¿Puede alguno impedir el agua, para que no sean bautizados éstos que han recibido el Espíritu Santo también como nosotros?
47 “Can anyone forbid these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just like us.”
48 He commanded them to also be immersed in the Name of the LORD; then they implored him to remain certain days.
48 Y les mandó bautizar en el nombre del Señor Jesús. Entonces le rogaron que se quedase por algunos días.
48 He commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay some days.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
This man is not a Jew, nor of those under the Law, but he had already forestalled our manner of life. Observe, thus far, two persons, both of high rank, receiving the faith, the eunuch at Gaza and this man; and the pains taken on behalf of these men.
