9 The voice spoke again from heaven, ‘Do not consider anything unclean that God has declared clean.’
10 This happened three times, and finally the whole thing was drawn back up into heaven.
11 At that very moment three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea arrived at the house where I was staying.
12 The Spirit told me to go with them without hesitation. These six fellow-believers from Joppa accompanied me to Caesarea, and we all went into the house of Cornelius.
13 He told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, ‘Send someone to Joppa for a man whose full name is Simon Peter.
14 He will speak words to you by which you and all your family will be saved.’
15 And when I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came down on them just as on us at the beginning.
