And when the angel who said these words to him had gone away, he sent for two of his house-servants, and a God-fearing man of the army, one of those who were waiting on him at all times; And having given them an account of everything, he sent them to Joppa. Now the day after, when they were on their journey and were near the town, Peter went up to the top of the house for prayer, about the sixth hour: And he was in need of food: but while they were getting it ready, a deep sleep came on him; And he saw the heavens opening, and a vessel coming down, like a great cloth let down on the earth, In which were all sorts of beasts and birds. And a voice came to him, saying, Come, Peter; take them for food. But Peter said, No, Lord; for I have never taken food which is common or unclean. And the voice came to him a second time, What God has made clean, do not you make common. And this was done three times: and then the vessel was taken back into heaven.

And, while Peter was turning the vision over in his mind, the Spirit said to him, See, three men are looking for you. Go down, then, and go with them, doubting nothing, for I have sent them.

So he took them in for the night. And the day after, he went with them, taking some of the brothers from Joppa with him. And the day after that, they came to Caesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having got together his relations and his near friends. And when Peter came in, Cornelius came to him and, falling down at his feet, gave him worship. But Peter, lifting him up, said, Get up, for I am a man as you are. And saying these words, he went in, and saw that a great number of people had come together; And he said to them, You yourselves have knowledge that it is against the law for a man who is a Jew to be in the company of one who is of another nation; but God has made it clear to me that no man may be named common or unclean: And so I came without question, when I was sent for. What then is your purpose in sending for me? And Cornelius said, Four days from now I was in my house in prayer at the ninth hour; and I saw before me a man in shining clothing, Who said, Cornelius, your prayer has come to the ears of God, and your offerings are kept in his memory. Send, then, to Joppa, and get Simon, named Peter, to come to you; he is living in the house of Simon, a leather-worker, by the sea. So, straight away, I sent for you; and you have done well to come. And now, we are all present before God, ready to give attention to all the things which the Lord has given you to say.
