One afternoon, at about three o'clock, Cornelius had a vision.[a] He clearly saw one of God's angels. The angel came in and said to him, ‘Cornelius!’

Cornelius looked at the angel and he was afraid. He asked, ‘Master, why have you come to me?’

The angel answered, ‘God has heard your prayers. He knows about all the money that you give to poor people. This has pleased him. Now God is answering your prayers. You must send some men to Joppa. They will find a man who is staying there. He is called Simon Peter. Your men must tell him to come here to Caesarea.
