7
And I heard also a voice saying to me, Rise up, Peter, slay and eat.
8
And I said, In no wise, Lord, for common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.
9
And a voice answered the second time out of heaven, What God has cleansed, do not *thou* make common.
10
And this took place thrice, and again all was drawn up into heaven;
11
and lo, immediately three men were at the house in which I was, sent to me from Caesarea.
12
And the Spirit said to me to go with them, nothing doubting. And there went with me these six brethren also, and we entered into the house of the man,
13
and he related to us how he had seen the angel in his house, standing and saying [to him], Send [men] to Joppa and fetch Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
14
who shall speak words to thee whereby *thou* shalt be saved, thou and all thy house.
15
And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them even as upon us also at the beginning.
16
And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John baptised with water, but *ye* shall be baptised with [the] Holy Spirit.
17
If then God has given them the same gift as also to us when we had believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who indeed was *I* to be able to forbid God?
