Cornelius staredG816 at himG846 in fearG1096G1719 andG2532 askedG2036, “WhatG5101 is itG1510, LordG2962?”

The angel answeredG2036, “YourG4771 prayersG4335 andG2532 gifts to the poorG1654 have ascendedG305 asG1519 a memorialG3422 offering beforeG1715 GodG2316. 5NowG3568 sendG3992 menG435 toG1519 JoppaG2445 to call forG3343 a manG5100 named SimonG4613 whoG3739 is calledG1941 PeterG4074. 6HeG3778 is stayingG3579 withG3844 SimonG4613 the tannerG1038, whoseG3739 houseG3614 isG1510 byG3844 the seaG2281.1”

WhenG5613 theG3588 angelG32 whoG3588 spokeG2980 to himG846 had goneG565, Cornelius calledG5455 twoG1417 ofG3588 his servantsG3610 andG2532 a devoutG2152 soldierG4757 from amongG3588 his attendantsG4342G846. 8He explainedG1834G846 what had happenedG537 and sentG649 themG846 toG1519 JoppaG2445.

TheG3588 next dayG1887 at aboutG4012 the sixthG1623 hourG5610,2 asG1565 the men were approachingG1448 theG3588 cityG4172 on their journeyG3596, PeterG4074 went upG305 onG1909 theG3588 roofG1430 to prayG4336. 10He becameG1096 hungryG4361 andG2532 wantedG2309 something to eatG1089, butG1161 while the meal was being preparedG3903, heG846 fellG1096 intoG1909 a tranceG1611.

He sawG2334 heavenG3772 openG455 andG2532 somethingG5100G4632 likeG5613 a largeG3173 sheetG3607 being let downG2597G2524 toG1909 earthG1093 by its fourG5064 cornersG746. 12It containedG1722G3739G5225 all kinds ofG3956 four-footed animalsG5074 andG2532 reptilesG2062 of theG3588 earthG1093, as well asG2532 birdsG4071 ofG3588 the airG3772. 13ThenG2532 a voiceG5456 saidG1096 toG4314 himG846: “Get upG450, PeterG4074, killG2380 andG2532 eatG5315!”

14“NoG3365, LordG2962!” PeterG4074 answeredG2036. “I have never eatenG3763G5315 anythingG3956 impureG28393 orG2532 uncleanG169.”

The voiceG5456 spoke toG4314 himG846 a second timeG1208: “Do not call anything impureG3361G2840 thatG3739 GodG2316 has made cleanG2511.”
