ACTS 11:5-11

⁵I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, a certain vessel descending, as it were a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even unto me:

⁶upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw the fourfooted beasts of the earth and wild beasts and creeping things and fowls of the heaven.

⁷And I heard also a voice saying unto me, Rise, Peter; kill and eat.

⁸But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath ever entered into my mouth.

⁹But a voice answered the second time out of heaven, What God hath cleansed, make not thou common.

¹⁰And this was done thrice: and all were drawn up again into heaven.

¹¹And behold, forthwith three men stood before the house in which we were, having been sent from Caesarea unto me.
