Acts 11:34-55, what a great passage!

[jesushandsarekindhands]

ESV – So Peter opened his mouth and said: "Truly I understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and hdoes what is right is acceptable to him."

HCSB – Then Peter began to speak: "In truth, I understand that God doesn't show favoritism, but in every nation the person who fears Him and does righteousness is acceptable to Him."

NET – Then Peter started speaking: "I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism in dealing with people, but in every nation the person who fears him and does what is right is welcomed before him."

NIV – Then Peter began to speak: "I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts men from every nation who fear him and do what is right."

NLT – Then Peter replied, "I see very clearly that God doesn't show partiality. In every nation he accepts those who fear him and do what is right."

D&T – Then, opening his mouth, Peter said, "In accordance with reality, I grasp the notion that God is not one who shows favoritism, rather, in every people group, the person who profoundly respects God and who engages justice is acceptable (to God)."
