Acts 10:5-14

⁵And now send men to Joppa, and fetch one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:

⁶he lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side.

⁷And when the angel that spake unto him was departed, he called two of his household-servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;

⁸and having rehearsed all things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.

⁹Now on the morrow, as they were on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour:

¹⁰and he became hungry, and desired to eat: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance;

¹¹and he beholdeth the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great sheet, let down by four corners upon the earth:

¹²wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts and creeping things of the earth and birds of the heaven.

¹³And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill and eat.

¹⁴But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common and unclean.
