6 En el cual como puse los ojos, consideré y vi animales terrestres de cuatro pies, y fieras, y reptiles, y aves del cielo.

7 Y oí una voz que me decía: Levántate, Pedro, mata y come.

8 Y dije: Señor, no; porque ninguna cosa común ó inmunda entró jamás en mi boca.

9 Entonces la voz me respondió del cielo segunda vez: Lo que Dios limpió, no lo llames tú común.

10 Y esto fué hecho por tres veces: y volvió todo á ser tomado arriba en el cielo.
