Acts 11:4-9

4 But Peter explained it to them in order from the beginning, saying:

5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me.

6 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.'
