8. But I said, ‘Certainly not, sir, because nothing profane or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’
9. But a second time a voice from heaven answered, ‘What God has made clean, you are not to call profane.’
10. This happened three times, and then everything was drawn up again into the sky.
11. Just then three men appeared at the house where we were, who had been sent to me from Caesarea.
12. The Spirit told me to accompany them without discriminating. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.
13. He related to us how he had seen (the) angel standing in his house, saying, ‘Send someone to Joppa and summon Simon, who is called Peter,
14. who will speak words to you by which you and all your household will be saved.’
15. As I began to speak, the holy Spirit fell upon them as it had upon us at the beginning,
16. and I remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said, ‘John baptized with water but you will be baptized with the holy Spirit.’
