ACTS 10:9-16

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 fowls 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.

¹⁵And a voice came unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, make not thou common.

¹⁶And this was done thrice: and straightway the vessel was received up into heaven.
