Acts 10:34-43

The Bible in Basic English BBE

34 Then Peter said, Truly, I see clearly that God is no respecter of persons:

35 But in every nation, the man who has fear of him and does righteousness is pleasing to him.

36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, giving the good news of peace through Jesus Christ (who is Lord of all)--

37 That word you yourselves have knowledge of, which was made public through all Judaea, starting from Galilee, after the baptism of which John was the preacher,

38 About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.

39 And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they put to death, hanging him on a tree.

40 On the third day God gave him back to life, and let him be seen,

41 Not by all the people, but by witnesses marked out before by God, even by us, who took food and drink with him after he came back from the dead.

42 And he gave us orders to give news of this to the people, and to give public witness that this is he whom God has made judge of the living and the dead.

43 To him all the prophets give witness, that through his name everyone who has faith in him will have forgiveness of sins.

New International Version NIV

34 Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism

35 but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right.

36 You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, announcing the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.

37 You know what has happened throughout the province of Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached—

38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.

39 “We are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a cross,

40 but God raised him from the dead on the third day and caused him to be seen.

41 He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead.

43 All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.”
