"I also heard a voice saying to me,‘Get up, Peter; slaughter and eat!’"
— Acts 11:7, NET Bible
“And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.”
“And I heard also a voice saying unto me, Rise, Peter; kill and eat. ”
“I also heard a voice saying to me, 'Rise, Peter, kill and eat!'”
“And I heard also a voice saying to me: Arise, Peter. Kill and eat.”
“And a voice came to my ears saying, Come, Peter; take them for food.”
“And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.”
But Peter began and explained it to them point by point, saying,
“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision, an object something like a large sheet descending, being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came to me.
As I stared I looked into it and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, reptiles, and wild birds.
I also heard a voice saying to me,‘Get up, Peter; slaughter and eat!’
But I said,‘Certainly not, Lord, for nothing defiled or ritually unclean has ever entered my mouth!’
But the voice replied a second time from heaven,‘What God has made clean, you must not consider ritually unclean!’
This happened three times, and then everything was pulled up to heaven again.
