The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, the captain of the Italian band of the army;

2 A serious-minded man, fearing God with all his family; he gave much money to the poor, and made prayer to God at all times.

3 He saw in a vision, clearly, at about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of the Lord coming to him and saying to him, Cornelius!

4 And he, looking on him in fear, said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Your prayers and your offerings have come up to God, and he has kept them in mind.

5 Now send men to Joppa, and get one Simon, named Peter,

6 Who is living with Simon, a leather-worker, whose house is by the sea.

1 At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion in what was known as the Italian Regiment.

2 He and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly.

3 One day at about three in the afternoon he had a vision. He distinctly saw an angel of God, who came to him and said, “Cornelius!”

4 Cornelius stared at him in fear. “What is it, Lord?” he asked. The angel answered, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have come up as a memorial offering before God.
