9Now the day after, when they were on their journey and were near the town, Peter went up to the top of the house for prayer, about the sixth hour:
10And he was in need of food: but while they were getting it ready, a deep sleep came on him;
11And he saw the heavens opening, and a vessel coming down, like a great cloth let down on the earth,
12In which were all sorts of beasts and birds.
13And a voice came to him, saying, Come, Peter; take them for food.
14But Peter said, No, Lord; for I have never taken food which is common or unclean.
15And the voice came to him a second time, What God has made clean, do not you make common.
16And this was done three times: and then the vessel was taken back into heaven.
17Now while Peter was in doubt as to the purpose of this vision, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made search for Simon's house, came to the door,
18To see if Simon, named Peter, was living there.
19And, while Peter was turning the vision over in his mind, the Spirit said to him, See, three men are looking for you.
20Go down, then, and go with them, doubting nothing, for I have sent them.
21And Peter went down to the men, and said, I am the man you are looking for: why have you come?
22And they said, Cornelius, a captain, an upright and God-fearing man, respected by all the nation of the Jews, had word from God by an angel to send for you to his house, and to give hearing to your words.
