5. "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object coming down like a great sheet lowered by four corners from the sky; and it came right down to me,
6. and when I had fixed my gaze on it and was observing it I saw the four-footed animals of the earth and the wild beasts and the crawling creatures and the birds of the air.
7. I also heard a voice saying to me, 'Get up, Peter; kill and eat.'
8. But I said, 'By no means, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered my mouth.'
