5„Když jsem byl ve městě Joppe, modlil jsem se a najednou jsem ve vytržení spatřil vidění: z nebe se za čtyři cípy spouštělo něco jako veliká plachta. Když sestoupila až ke mně, 6pozorně jsem se do ní podíval a spatřil jsem čtvernohá polní zvířata i šelmy, plazy a ptáky. 7Tehdy jsem uslyšel hlas: ‚Vstaň, Petře, zabíjej a jez!‘ 8Odpověděl jsem: ‚To ne, Pane! Nikdy jsem nevzal do úst nic nečistého nebo poskvrněného.‘ 9Ten hlas z nebe ke mně ale promluvil znovu: ‚Co Bůh očistil, neměj za nečisté!‘ 10Třikrát se to opakovalo, než to bylo všechno vytaženo zpátky do nebe. 11Vtom se před domem, ve kterém jsem byl, objevili tři muži. Byli za mnou posláni z Cesareje 12a Duch mi řekl, abych šel bez váhání s nimi. Doprovázelo mě těchto šest bratrů, s nimiž jsme vešli do domu toho muže. 13Vyprávěl nám, jak ve svém domě uviděl anděla. Stanul před ním a řekl: ‚Pošli do Joppy a nech zavolat Šimona zvaného Petr. 14Skrze to, co ti poví, budeš spasen ty i celý tvůj dům!‘

5Byl jsem v městě Joppen, modle se. I viděl jsem u vytržení mysli jsa vidění, nádobu nějakou sstupující jako prostěradlo veliké, za čtyři rohy přivázané, ano se spouští s nebe, a přišlo až ke mně. 6V kteréž pohleděv pilně, spatřil jsem hovada zemská čtvernohá, i zvířata, a zeměplazy, i ptactvo nebeské. 7Slyšel jsem také i hlas ke mně řkoucí: Vstaň, Petře, bij a jez. 8I řekl jsem: Nikoli, Pane, nebo nic obecného aneb nečistého nikdy nevcházelo v ústa má. 9I odpověděl mi hlas po druhé s nebe, řka: Co jest Bůh očistil, neměj ty toho za nečisté. 10A to se stalo po třikrát. I vtrženo jest zase to všecko do nebe. 11A aj, hned té chvíle tři muži stáli u domu, v kterémž jsem byl, posláni jsouce ke mně z Cesaree. 12I řekl mi Duch, abych šel s nimi, nic nepochybuje. A šlo se mnou i těchto šest bratří, a vešli jsme do domu muže jednoho. 13Kterýžto vypravoval nám, kterak viděl anděla v domu svém, an se před ním postavil a řekl jemu: Pošli do Joppen muže některé a povolej Šimona, kterýž slove Petr. 14Onť tobě bude mluviti slova, skrze něž spasen budeš ty i všecken tvůj dům.

5Będąc w mieście Jafie, modliłem się i w zachwyceniu miałem widzenie – jakiś przedmiot zstępujący, jakby wielkie płótno, za cztery rogi uwiązane i spuszczone z nieba, i dotarło aż do mnie. 6Wpatrzywszy się w nie uważnie, przyjrzałem się i zobaczyłem czworonożne zwierzęta ziemskie, bestie, gady i ptaki nieba. 7I usłyszałem głos mówiący do mnie: Wstań, Piotrze, zabijaj i jedz. 8I odpowiedziałem: Żadną miarą, Panie, bo nigdy niczego pospolitego lub nieczystego nie wziąłem do ust. 9Wtedy głos z nieba odezwał się po raz drugi: Tego, co Bóg oczyścił, nie uważaj za nieczyste. 10A to się stało trzy razy, po czym to wszystko zostało wciągnięte z powrotem do nieba. 11I zaraz trzej mężczyźni posłani do mnie z Cezarei stanęli przed domem, w którym byłem. 12I powiedział mi Duch, abym z nimi poszedł bez wahania. Szło też ze mną tych sześciu braci i weszliśmy do domu tego człowieka. 13On nam opowiedział, jak ujrzał w swoim domu anioła, który stanął i powiedział do niego: Poślij ludzi do Jafy i przywołaj Szymona, zwanego Piotrem. 14On ci powie słowa, przez które będziesz zbawiony, ty i cały twój dom.
SŻ [11:4–14]
4–5—Pewnego dnia w Jaffie, gdy się modliłem, miałem widzenie—zaczął opowiadać Piotr. —Z nieba prosto na mnie spuszczone zostało coś jakby ogromna płachta, trzymana za cztery rogi. 6Zajrzałem do środka i zobaczyłem w niej różne gatunki zwierząt, płazów i ptaków. 7Usłyszałem też głos, mówiący do mnie: „Rusz się, Piotrze. Zabij je i jedz”. 8Odpowiedziałem na to: „Nigdy w życiu, Panie! Nigdy nie jadłem żadnych nieczystych stworzeń, bo zabrania tego Prawo Mojżesza!”. 9Lecz głos z nieba odezwał się znowu: „Nie uważaj za nieczyste tego, co Bóg oczyścił”. 10Powtórzyło się to trzy razy, po czym wszystko zostało z powrotem zabrane do nieba. 11Wtedy właśnie przed domem, w którym mieszkaliśmy, stanęli trzej ludzie, wysłani do mnie z Cezarei. 12Duch Święty powiedział mi, abym poszedł z nimi, nie zważając na to, że są poganami. Towarzyszyło mi tych oto sześciu wierzących. Gdy dotarliśmy do domu tego człowieka, 13opowiedział nam, że ukazał mu się anioł, który powiedział: „Wyślij swoich ludzi do Jaffy i zaproś Szymona Piotra. 14On powie ci coś, dzięki czemu ty i twoi domownicy zostaniecie zbawieni”.

5I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me: 6Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 7And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat. 8But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth. 9But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. 10And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven. 11And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Cæsarea unto me. 12And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house: 13And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter; 14Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.

5“I was in the city of Joppa praying when I fell into a trance. I saw a vision—something resembling a large sheet descending, being lowered from heaven by its four corners. It came right down to where I was. 6As I examined it closely, I observed four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the sky. 7Then I heard a voice instructing me, ‘Get up, Peter. Slaughter and eat.’ 8I responded, ‘Absolutely not, Lord! Nothing defiled or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’ 9But the voice from heaven responded a second time: ‘What God has declared clean, you must not call defiled.’ 10This happened three times, and then everything was pulled back up into heaven. 11At that precise moment, three men arrived at the house where I was staying. They had been sent to me from Caesarea. 12The Spirit instructed me to accompany them without making any distinction.
