While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Simon, three men are looking for you.
20
So get up and go downstairs. Do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them.”
21
Peter went down and said to the men, “I’m the one you’re looking for. Why have you come?”
22
The men replied, “We have come from Cornelius the centurion. He is a righteous and God-fearing man, who is respected by all the Jewish people. A holy angel told him to ask you to come to his house so that he could hear what you have to say.”
Then Peter invited the men into the house to be his guests.

The following day he arrived in Caesarea. Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends.
25
As Peter entered the house, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet in reverence.

But Peter made him get up. “Stand up,” he said, “I am only a man myself.”
