14
But Peter said, "No, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean."

And the voice came to him again a second time, "What God has cleansed, you must not call common."

And while Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are looking for you.

Rise and go down, and accompany them without hesitation; for I have sent them."
21
And Peter went down to the men and said, "I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for your coming?"
