4But Peter gave them an account of it all in order, saying to them,
5I was in the town of Joppa, at prayer: and falling into a deep sleep, I saw in a vision a vessel like a great cloth let down from heaven, and it came down to me:
6And looking on it with attention I saw in it all sorts of beasts and birds.
7And a voice came to my ears saying, Come, Peter; take them for food.
8But I said, No, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever come into my mouth.
9But the voice, coming a second time from heaven, said, What God has made clean, do not you make common.
10And this was done three times, and they were all taken up again into heaven.
