NHEB(i)
5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.
6 When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, crawling creatures, and birds of the sky.
7 I also heard a voice saying to me, 'Rise, Peter, kill and eat.'
8 But I said, 'Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.'
9 But a voice answered the second time out of heaven, 'What God has cleansed, do not call unclean.'
10 This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
