6 No qual, olhando eu com atenção, considerei e vi quatro quadrúpedes da terra, e animais selvagens, e répteis, e aves do céu.

7 E eu ouvi uma voz que me dizia: Levanta-te Pedro, mata e come.

8 Mas eu disse: De maneira nenhuma, Senhor; porque nunca comi coisa alguma ordinária, nem coisa imunda entrou em minha boca.

9 E a voz me respondeu do céu pela segunda vez: O que Deus purificou, não o faças tu [como] ordinário.

10 E isto aconteceu por três vezes; e voltou-se tudo a recolher acima ao céu.
