Acts 11:6-10 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. Looking intently into it, I observed and saw the four-legged animals of the earth, the wild beasts, the reptiles, and the birds of the sky.

7. I also heard a voice say to me, ‘Get up, Peter. Slaughter and eat.’

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.
