And I beheld, and lo! in the midst of the throne, and of the four living beings, and in the midst of the presbyters, stood a lamb as just slaughtered, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God that are sent forth into all the world: and he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that was seated upon the throne. And when he had taken the book, the four living beings and the four and twenty presbyters prostrated themselves before the lamb, having each harps, and vases of gold, full of perfumes smoaking, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open the seals thereon; because thou hast been slaughtered, and hast redeemed us for God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation; and hast made us for our God kings and priests, and we shall reign upon the earth. And I looked, and heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and the living beings, and the presbyters, and their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, crying with a loud voice, Worthy is the slaughtered lamb to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honour, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and those who are on the sea, and all things which are therein, heard I, saying, To him who is seated on the throne, and to the lamb, be blessing, and honour, and glory, and might for ever and ever.

And the first angel blew the trumpet, and there were hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast on the earth; and a third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. And the second angel sounded, and there was cast into the sea as it were a vast mountain burning with fire: and the third part of the sea became blood; and a third part of the creatures having life, which are in the sea, died; and a third part of the ships was destroyed. And the third angel blew the trumpet, and there fell from heaven a great star, burning as a torch, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of water; and the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters was turned into wormwood, and multitudes of men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming to him, and saying to him, Cornelius. Then looking stedfastly on him, and being terrified, he said, What means this, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God. And now send men to Joppa, and inquire for Simon, who is surnamed Peter:read more.
he lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is near the sea: this man will tell thee what thou must do. But when the angel departed who spake to Cornelius, he called two of his domestics, and a pious soldier, persons who constantly were in attendance upon him; and relating all things to them, sent them to Joppa. Then the next morning, as they were on their journey, and drew near to the city, Peter went up to the flat roof to pray about the sixth hour: and he grew very hungry, and desired something to eat: but whilst they were getting it ready, a sacred ecstacy fell upon him. And he saw heaven opened, and there descended to him a certain vessel, as a great sheet with chains at the four corners, and resting upon the earth: in which were all the quadrupeds of the earth, and wild beasts, and reptiles, and birds of the air. And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; slay and eat. But Peter said, By no means, Lord for I have never at any time eaten of any thing common or unclean. And the voice again a second time came to him, What God hath cleansed, call not thou unclean. This was thrice repeated: and the vessel was again taken up into heaven. But while Peter was perplexed in himself what was meant by the vision which he had seen, then, behold! the men which had been sent by Cornelius having inquired out the house of Simon, stood before the door, and calling, asked if Simon, surnamed Peter, lodged there. But while Peter was musing upon the vision, the Spirit said to him, Lo! three men are inquiring after thee. Arise then, and go down, and go with them, entertaining no doubt, for I have sent them. Then Peter went down to the men who were sent by Cornelius to him; and said, Lo! I am the person that ye ask for: what is the business on which ye are come hither? Then they said, Cornelius a centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report with all the nation of the Jews, has been divinely admonished by a holy angel to send for thee to his house, to hear words from thee. Then inviting them in, he lodged them there. And the next morning Peter went with them, and some of the brethren from Joppa accompanied him. And the next day they entered into Caesarea. Now Cornelius was expecting them, having called together his relations and nearest friends. And as Peter was entering, Cornelius met him, and falling at his feet, paid him homage. But Peter raised him up, saying, Arise; I also myself am a man. And conversing with him, he entered, and found many assembled together. And he said unto them, Ye know how contrary it is to established usage, for a man who is a Jew to associate with or visit one of another nation; but God hath shewed me to call no man common or unclean. Wherefore also without a word, I came when invited: I beg to know therefore for what purpose ye have sent for me? Then Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting till this hour; and at the ninth hour I was praying in my house, and, lo! a man stood before me in shining apparel, and said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are remembered before God. Send therefore to Joppa, and invite Simon, whose surname is Peter, to come to thee; he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, near the sea: who, when he is come will talk with thee. Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast done well in coming. Now therefore are all we here present before God, to hear all things that are given in charge to thee from God.

So then Peter was kept in prison: but fervent prayer was offered up by the church to God for him. Now when Herod was going to bring him forth, the same night was Peter fast asleep between the two soldiers, fastened to them with two chains: and the guards before the door kept the prison. And, lo! an angel of the Lord stood there, and light glared through the apartment: then with a stroke on Peter's side, he roused him up, and said, Arise quickly. And his chains fell from his hands.
