When I observed it intently and considered, I saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.
7
And I heard a voice saying to me, 'Rise, Peter; kill and eat.'
8
But I said, 'Not so, Lord! For nothing common or unclean has at any time entered my mouth.'
9
But the voice answered me again from heaven, 'What God has cleansed you must not call common.'
10
Now this was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
11
At that very moment, three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent to me from Caesarea.
12
Then the Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.
13
And he told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, 'Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon whose surname is Peter,
14
who will tell you words by which you and all your household will be saved.'
15
And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning.
16
Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, 'John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
