Peter’s Vision
Leader: 9 About noon the following day as they were on their
journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
All: 10 He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while
the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
Leader: 11 He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet
being let down to earth by its four corners.
All: 12 It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as
reptiles and birds.
Leader: 13 Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.”
All: 14 “Surely not, Lord!” Peter replied. “I have never eaten anything
impure or unclean.”
Leader: 15 The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call
anything impure that God has made clean.”
All: 16 This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was
taken back to heaven.
Leader: 17 While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the
vision, the men sent by Cornelius found out where Simon’s house
was and stopped at the gate.
All: 18 They called out, asking if Simon who was known as Peter was
staying there.
Leader: 19 While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit
said to him, “Simon, three[a] men are looking for you.
All: 20 So get up and go downstairs. Do not hesitate to go with
them, for I have sent them.”
Leader: 21 Peter went down and said to the men, “I’m the one you’re
looking for. Why have you come?”
All: 22 The men replied, “We have come from Cornelius the
centurion. He is a righteous and God-fearing man, who is respected
by all the Jewish people. A holy angel told him to ask you to come to
his house so that he could hear what you have to say.”
Leader: 23 Then Peter invited the men into the house to be his
guests.
