Acts 10:13

Then ¹  a voice said ²  to him, “Get up, Peter; slaughter ³  and eat!”

Jer 35:2-5; Joh 4:31-34; Ac 10:10

¹ tn Grk “And there came.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

² tn Grk “a voice to him”; the word “said” is not in the Greek text but is implied.

³ tn Or “kill.” Traditionally θῦσον (quson) is translated “kill,” but in the case of animals intended for food, “slaughter” is more appropriate.
