5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, a certain vessel coming down like a great sheet, being lowered by the four corners from heaven; and it came as far as me;
6 on which, looking intently, I was contemplating, and I saw the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the reptiles, and birds of the air.
7 And I heard a voice saying to me, 'Arise, Peter; kill and eat.'
8 "But I said, 'By no means, Lord! For nothing common or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.'
9 "But the voice answered me a second time from heaven, 'What God has made clean, you must not call common.'
10 "And this was done three times, and again all things were drawn up into heaven.
11 And behold, immediately three men stood before the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
12 And the Spirit said to me to go with them, without wavering. Now these six brothers also went with me, and we entered into the house of the man.
13 And he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying to him, 'Send men to Joppa, and send for Simon whose surname is Peter,
14 'who will speak words to you by which you and all your household shall be saved.'
