9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey and drew near unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour;
10 and he became very hungry and would have eaten; but while they made ready, he fell into a rapture of understanding
11 and saw the heaven opened and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners and let down to the earth,
12 in which were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth and wild beasts and reptiles and fowls of the air.
13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter, kill and eat.
14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
15 And the voice spoke unto him again the second time, That which God has cleansed, do not call common.
