3 en disant: Tu es entré chez des incirconcis, et tu as mangé avec eux.
4 Pierre se mit à leur exposer d’une manière suivie ce qui s’était passé.
5 Il dit: J’étais dans la ville de Joppé, et, pendant que je priais, je tombai en extase et j’eus une vision: un objet, semblable à une grande nappe attachée par les quatre coins, descendait du ciel et vint jusqu’à moi.
6 Les regards fixés sur cette nappe, j’examinai, et je vis les quadrupèdes de la terre, les bêtes sauvages, les reptiles, et les oiseaux du ciel.
7 Et j’entendis une voix qui me disait: Lève-toi, Pierre, tue et mange.
