¹ Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.

² And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

³ Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.

⁴ And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

⁵ And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.

⁶ Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

⁷ And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

⁸ And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

⁹ And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

¹⁰ And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.

¹¹ And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

¹² And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?

¹³ The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.

¹⁴ But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;

¹⁵ And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.

¹⁶ And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

¹⁷ And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.

¹⁸ But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

¹⁹ Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

²⁰ And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

²¹ Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

²² For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

²³ And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

²⁴ Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.

²⁵ Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.

²⁶ Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

¹ Now ^G1161 Peter ^G4074 and ^G2532 John ^G2491 went up ^G305 together ^{G1909 G846} into ^G1519 the temple ^G2411 at the hour ^G5610 of prayer, ^G4335 being the ninth ^G1766 hour.

² And ^G2532 a certain ^G5100 man ^G435 lame ^{G5225 G5560} from ^G1537 his ^G846 mother's ^G3384 womb ^G2836 was carried, ^G941 whom ^G3739 they laid ^G5087 daily ^{G2250 G2596} at ^G4314 the gate ^G2374 of the temple ^G2411 which ^G3588 is called ^G3004 Beautiful, ^G5611 to ask ^G154 alms ^G1654 of ^G3844 them that entered ^G1531 into ^G1519 the temple; ^G2411

³ Who ^G3739 seeing ^G1492 Peter ^G4074 and ^G2532 John ^G2491 about ^G3195 to go ^G1524 into ^G1519 the temple ^G2411 asked ^{G2065 G2983} an alms. ^G1654

⁴ And ^G1161 Peter, ^G4074 fastening his eyes ^G816 upon ^G1519 him ^G846 with ^G4862 John, ^G2491 said, ^G2036 Look ^G991 on ^G1519 us. ^G2248

⁵ And ^G1161 he gave heed ^G1907 unto them, ^G846 expecting ^G4328 to receive ^G2983 something ^G5100 of ^G3844 them. ^G846

⁶ Then ^G1161 Peter ^G4074 said, ^G2036 Silver ^G694 and ^G2532 gold ^G5553 have ^G5225 I ^G3427 none; ^G3756 but ^G1161 such as ^{G3739 G5124} I have ^G2192 give I ^G1325 thee: ^G4671 In ^G1722 the name ^G3686 of Jesus ^G2424 Christ ^G5547 of Nazareth ^G3480 rise up ^G1453 and ^G2532 walk. ^G4043

⁷ And ^G2532 he took ^G4084 him ^G846 by the right ^G1188 hand, ^G5495 and lifted him up: ^G1453 and ^G1161 immediately ^G3916 his ^G846 feet ^G939 and ^G2532 ankle bones ^G4974 received strength. ^G4732

⁸ And ^G2532 he leaping up ^G1814 stood, ^G2476 and ^G2532 walked, ^G4043 and ^G2532 entered ^G1525 with ^G4862 them ^G846 into ^G1519 the temple, ^G2411 walking, ^G4043 and ^G2532 leaping, ^G242 and ^G2532 praising ^G134 God. ^G2316

⁹ And ^G2532 all ^G3956 the people ^G2992 saw ^G1492 him ^G846 walking ^G4043 and ^G2532 praising ^G134 God: ^G2316

¹⁰ And ^G5037 they knew ^G1921 that ^G3754 it ^G846 was ^G2258 he ^G3778 which ^G3588 sat ^G2521 for ^G4314 alms ^G1654 at ^G1909 the Beautiful ^G5611 gate ^G4439 of the temple: ^G2411 and ^G2532 they were filled ^G4130 with wonder ^G2285 and ^G2532 amazement ^G1611 at ^G1909 that which had happened ^G4819 unto him. ^G846

¹¹ And ^G1161 as the lame man ^G5560 which was healed ^G2390 held ^G2902 Peter ^G4074 and ^G2532 John, ^G2491 all ^G3956 the people ^G2992 ran together ^G4936 unto ^G4314 them ^G846 in ^G1909 the porch ^G4745 that is called ^G2564 Solomon's, ^G4672 greatly wondering. ^G1569

¹² And ^G1161 when Peter ^G4074 saw ^G1492 it, he answered ^G611 unto ^G4314 the people, ^G2992 Ye men ^G435 of Israel, ^G2475 why ^G5101 marvel ye ^G2296 at ^G1909 this? ^G5129 or ^G2228 why ^G5101 look ye so earnestly ^G816 on us, ^G2254 as though ^G5613 by our own ^G2398 power ^G1411 or ^G2228 holiness ^G2150 we had made ^G4160 this man ^G846 to walk? ^G4043

¹³ The God ^G2316 of Abraham, ^G11 and ^G2532 of Isaac, ^G2464 and ^G2532 of Jacob, ^G2384 the God ^G2316 of our ^G2257 fathers, ^G3962 hath glorified ^G1392 his ^G846 Son ^G3816 Jesus; ^G2424 whom ^G3739 ye ^G5210 delivered up, ^G3860 and ^G2532 denied ^G720 him ^G846 in ^G2596 the presence ^G4383 of Pilate, ^G4091 when he was determined ^G2919 to let ^G630 him ^G1565 go. ^G630

¹⁴ But ^G1161 ye ^G5210 denied ^G720 the Holy One ^G40 and ^G2532 the Just, ^G1342 and ^G2532 desired ^G154 a murderer ^{G5406 G435} to be granted ^G5483 unto you; ^G5213

¹⁵ And ^G1161 killed ^G615 the Prince ^G747 of life, ^G2222 whom ^G3739 God ^G2316 hath raised ^G1453 from ^G1537 the dead; ^G3498 whereof ^G3739 we ^G2249 are ^G2070 witnesses. ^G3144

¹⁶ And ^G2532 his ^G846 name ^G3686 through ^G1909 faith ^G4102 in his ^G846 name ^G3686 hath made ^G4732 this man ^G5026 strong, ^G4732 whom ^G3739 ye see ^G2334 and ^G2532 know: ^G1492 yea, ^G2532 the faith ^G4102 which is ^G1325 by ^G1223 him ^G846 hath given ^G1325 him ^G846 this ^G5126 perfect soundness ^G3647 in the presence ^G561 of you ^G5216 all. ^G3956

¹⁷ And ^G2532 now, ^G3568 brethren, ^G80 I wot ^G1492 that ^G3754 through ^G2596 ignorance ^G52 ye did ^G4238 it, as ^G5618 did also ^G2532 your ^G5216 rulers. ^G758

¹⁸ But ^G1161 those things, which ^G3739 God ^G2316 before had shewed ^G4293 by ^G1223 the mouth ^G4750 of all ^G3956 his ^G846 prophets, ^G4396 that Christ ^G5547 should suffer, ^G3958 he hath ^G4137 so ^G3779 fulfilled. ^G4137

¹⁹ Repent ye ^G3340 therefore, ^G3767 and ^G2532 be converted, ^G1994 that ^G1519 your ^G5216 sins ^G266 may be blotted out, ^G1813 when ^G3704 the times ^G2540 of refreshing ^G403 shall come ^{G302 G2064} from ^G575 the presence ^G4383 of the Lord; ^G2962

²⁰ And ^G2532 he shall send ^G649 Jesus ^G2424 Christ, ^G5547 which before was preached ^G4296 unto you: ^G5213

²¹ Whom ^G3739 the heaven ^{G3772 G3303} must ^G1163 receive ^G1209 until ^G891 the times ^G5550 of restitution ^G605 of all things, ^G3956 which ^G3739 God ^G2316 hath spoken ^G2980 by ^G1223 the mouth ^G4750 of all ^G3956 his ^G846 holy ^G40 prophets ^G4396 since ^G575 the world began. ^G165

²² For ^G1063 Moses ^G3475 truly ^G3303 said ^G2036 unto ^G4314 the fathers, ^{G3962 G3754} A prophet ^G4396 shall ^G450 the Lord ^G2962 your ^G5216 God ^G2316 raise up ^G450 unto you ^G5213 of ^G1537 your ^G5216 brethren, ^G80 like ^G5613 unto me; ^G1691 him ^G846 shall ye hear ^G191 in ^G2596 all things ^G3956 whatsoever ^{G3745 G302} he shall say ^G2980 unto ^G4314 you. ^G5209

²³ And ^G1161 it shall come to pass, ^G2071 that every ^G3956 soul, ^G5590 which ^{G3748 G302} will ^G191 not ^G3361 hear ^G191 that ^G1565 prophet, ^G4396 shall be destroyed ^G1842 from among ^G1537 the people. ^G2992

²⁴ Yea, ^G2532 and ^G1161 all ^G3956 the prophets ^G4396 from ^G575 Samuel ^G4545 and ^G2532 those that follow after, ^G2517 as many as ^G3745 have spoken, ^G2980 have ^G4293 likewise ^G2532 foretold ^G4293 of these ^G5025 days. ^G2250

²⁵ Ye ^G5210 are ^G2075 the children ^G5207 of the prophets, ^G4396 and ^G2532 of the covenant ^G1242 which ^G3739 God ^G2316 made ^G1303 with ^G4314 our ^G2257 fathers, ^G3962 saying ^G3004 unto ^G4314 Abraham, ^G11 And ^G2532 in thy ^G4675 seed ^G4690 shall ^G1757 all ^G3956 the kindreds ^G3965 of the earth ^G1093 be blessed. ^G1757

²⁶ Unto you ^G5213 first ^G4412 God, ^G2316 having raised up ^G450 his ^G846 Son ^G3816 Jesus, ^G2424 sent ^G649 him ^G846 to bless ^G2127 you, ^G5209 in ^G1722 turning away ^G654 every one ^G1538 of you ^G5216 from ^G575 his iniquities. ^G4189

¹ Now Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, `being' the ninth `hour'.

² And a certain man that was lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the door of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

³ who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked to receive an alms.

⁴ And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him, with John, said, Look on us.

⁵ And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something from them.

⁶ But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but what I have, that give I thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.

⁷ And he took him by the right hand, and raised him up: and immediately his feet and his ankle-bones received strength.

⁸ And leaping up, he stood, and began to walk; and he entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

⁹ And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

¹⁰ and they took knowledge of him, that it was he that sat for alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.

¹¹ And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

¹² And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this man? or why fasten ye your eyes on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him to walk?

¹³ The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.

¹⁴ But ye denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted unto you,

¹⁵ and killed the Prince of life; whom God raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.

¹⁶ And by faith in his name hath his name made this man strong, whom ye behold and know: yea, the faith which is through him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

¹⁷ And now, brethren, I know that in ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.

¹⁸ But the things which God foreshowed by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.

¹⁹ Repent ye therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, that so there may come seasons of refreshing from the presence of the Lord;

²⁰ and that he may send the Christ who hath been appointed for you, `even' Jesus:

²¹ whom the heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, whereof God spake by the mouth of His holy prophets that have been from of old.

²² Moses indeed said, A prophet shall the Lord God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like unto me. To him shall ye hearken in all things whatsoever he shall speak unto you.

²³ And it shall be, that every soul that shall not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.

²⁴ Yea and all the prophets from Samuel and them that followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.

²⁵ Ye are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with your fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

²⁶ Unto you first God, having raised up his Servant, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.

¹ And Peter and John were going up at the same time to the temple, at the hour of the prayer, the ninth `hour',

² and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,

³ who, having seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, was begging to receive a kindness.

⁴ And Peter, having looked stedfastly toward him with John, said, `Look toward us;'

⁵ and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;

⁶ and Peter said, `Silver and gold I have none, but what I have, that I give to thee; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and be walking.'

⁷ And having seized him by the right hand, he raised `him' up, and presently his feet and ankles were strengthened,

⁸ and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and did enter with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;

⁹ and all the people saw him walking and praising God,

¹⁰ they were knowing him also that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what hath happened to him.

¹¹ And at the lame man who was healed holding Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch called Solomon's -- greatly amazed,

¹² and Peter having seen, answered unto the people, `Men, Israelites! why wonder ye at this? or on us why look ye so earnestly, as if by our own power or piety we have made him to walk?

¹³ `The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, did glorify His child Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, he having given judgment to release `him',

¹⁴ and ye the Holy and Righteous One did deny, and desired a man -- a murderer -- to be granted to you,

¹⁵ and the Prince of the life ye did kill, whom God did raise out of the dead, of which we are witnesses;

¹⁶ and on the faith of his name, this one whom ye see and have known, his name made strong, even the faith that `is' through him did give to him this perfect soundness before you all.

¹⁷ `And now, brethren, I have known that through ignorance ye did `it', as also your rulers;

¹⁸ and God, what things before He had declared through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He did thus fulfil;

¹⁹ reform ye, therefore, and turn back, for your sins being blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

²⁰ and He may send Jesus Christ who before hath been preached to you,

²¹ whom it behoveth heaven, indeed, to receive till times of a restitution of all things, of which God spake through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age.

²² `For Moses, indeed, unto the fathers said -- A prophet to you shall the Lord your God raise up out of your brethren, like to me; him shall ye hear in all things, as many as he may speak unto you;

²³ and it shall be, every soul that may not hear that prophet shall be utterly destroyed out of the people;

²⁴ and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.

²⁵ `Ye are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made unto our fathers, saying unto Abraham: And in thy seed shall be blessed all the families of the earth;

²⁶ to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, did send him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.'

¹ And Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, [which is] the ninth [hour];

² and a certain man who was lame from his mother's womb was being carried, whom they placed every day at the gate of the temple called Beautiful, to ask alms of those who were going into the temple;

³ who, seeing Peter and John about to enter into the temple, asked to receive alms.

⁴ And Peter, looking stedfastly upon him with John, said, Look on us.

⁵ And he gave heed to them, expecting to receive something from them.

⁶ But Peter said, Silver and gold I have not; but what I have, this give I to thee: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazaraean rise up and walk.

⁷ And having taken hold of him [by] the right hand he raised him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones were made strong.

⁸ And leaping up he stood and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

⁹ And all the people saw him walking and praising God;

¹⁰ and they recognised him, that it was *he* who sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

¹¹ And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the portico which is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

¹² And Peter, seeing it, answered the people, Men of Israel, why are ye astonished at this? or why do ye gaze on us as if we had by our own power or piety made him to walk?

¹³ The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus, whom *ye* delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when *he* had judged that he should be let go.

¹⁴ But *ye* denied the holy and righteous one, and asked that a man [that was] a murderer should be granted to you;

¹⁵ but the originator of life ye slew, whom God raised from among [the] dead, whereof *we* are witnesses.

¹⁶ And, by faith in his name, his name has made this [man] strong whom ye behold and know; and the faith which is by him has given him this complete soundness in the presence of you all.

¹⁷ And now, brethren, I know that ye did it in ignorance, as also your rulers;

¹⁸ but God has thus fulfilled what he had announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ should suffer.

¹⁹ Repent therefore and be converted, for the blotting out of your sins, so that times of refreshing may come from [the] presence of the Lord,

²⁰ and he may send Jesus Christ, who was foreordained for you,

²¹ whom heaven indeed must receive till [the] times of [the] restoring of all things, of which God has spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets since time began.

²² Moses indeed said, A prophet shall [the] Lord your God raise up to you out of your brethren like me: him shall ye hear in everything whatsoever he shall say to you.

²³ And it shall be that whatsoever soul shall not hear that prophet shall be destroyed from among the people.

²⁴ And indeed all the prophets from Samuel and those in succession after [him], as many as have spoken, have announced also these days.

²⁵ *Ye* are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God appointed to our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

²⁶ To you first God, having raised up his servant, has sent him, blessing you in turning each one [of you] from your wickedness.

¹ Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour{3:00 PM}.

² A certain man who was lame from his mother's womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the door of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask gifts for the needy of those who entered into the temple.

³ Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.

⁴ Peter, fastening his eyes on him, with John, said, "Look at us."

⁵ He listened to them, expecting to receive something from them.

⁶ But Peter said, "Silver and gold have I none, but what I have, that I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!"

⁷ He took him by the right hand, and raised him up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength.

⁸ Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.

⁹ All the people saw him walking and praising God.

¹⁰ They recognized him, that it was he who used to sit begging for gifts for the needy at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

¹¹ As the lame man who was healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

¹² When Peter saw it, he responded to the people, "You men of Israel, why do you marvel at this man? Why do you fasten your eyes on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him walk?

¹³ The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.

¹⁴ But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,

¹⁵ and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.

¹⁶ By faith in his name has his name made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which is through him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

¹⁷ "Now, brothers{The word for "brothers" here may be also correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."}, I know that you did this in ignorance, as did also your rulers.

¹⁸ But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.

¹⁹ "Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord,

²⁰ and that he may send Christ Jesus, who was ordained for you before,

²¹ whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke long ago by the mouth of his holy prophets.

²² For Moses indeed said to the fathers, 'The Lord God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him in all things whatever he says to you.

²³ It will be, that every soul that will not listen to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.'

²⁴ Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.

²⁵ You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, 'In your seed will all the families of the earth be blessed.'

²⁶ God, having raised up his servant, Jesus, sent him to you first, to bless you, in turning away everyone of you from your wickedness."

¹ Now Peter and John were going up to the Temple at the ninth hour, the hour of prayer;

² And a certain man who from birth had had no power in his legs, was taken there every day, and put down at the door of the Temple which is named Beautiful, requesting money from those who went into the Temple;

³ He then, seeing Peter and John going into the Temple, made a request to them.

⁴ And Peter, looking at him, with John, said, Keep your eyes on us.

⁵ And he gave attention to them, hoping to get something from them.

⁶ But Peter said, I have no silver or gold, but what I have, that I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up on your feet.

⁷ And he took him by his right hand, lifting him up; and straight away his feet and the bones of his legs became strong,

⁸ And, jumping up, he got on to his feet and went into the Temple with them, walking and jumping and giving praise to God.

⁹ And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

¹⁰ And they saw that it was the man who made requests for money at the door of the Temple, and they were full of wonder and surprise at what had taken place.

¹¹ And while he kept his hands on Peter and John, all the people came running together to the covered way which is named Solomon's, full of wonder.

¹² And when Peter saw it he said to the people, You men of Israel, why are you so greatly surprised at this man? or why are you looking at us as if by our power or virtue we had given him the use of his legs?

¹³ The God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has given glory to his servant Jesus; whom you gave up, turning your backs on him, when Pilate had made the decision to let him go free.

¹⁴ But you would have nothing to do with the Holy and Upright One, and made request for a man of blood to be given to you,

¹⁵ And put to death the Lord of life; whom God gave back from the dead; of which fact we are witnesses.

¹⁶ And his name, through faith in his name, has made this man strong, whom you see and have knowledge of: yes, the faith which is through him has made him well, before you all.

¹⁷ And now, my brothers, I am conscious that you did this, as did your rulers, without knowledge.

¹⁸ But the things which God had made clear before, by the mouth of all the prophets, that the Christ would have to undergo, he has put into effect in this way.

¹⁹ So then, let your hearts be changed and be turned to God, so that your sins may be completely taken away, and times of blessing may come from the Lord;

²⁰ And that he may send the Christ who was marked out for you from the first, even Jesus:

²¹ Who is to be kept in heaven till the time when all things are put right, of which God has given word by the mouth of his holy prophets, who have been from the earliest times.

²² For Moses said, The Lord will give you a prophet from among your people, like me; you will give ear to everything which he will say to you.

²³ And every soul who does not give attention to that prophet, will be cut off from among the people.

²⁴ And all the prophets from Samuel and those who came after, every one of them, gave word of these days.

²⁵ You are the sons of the prophets, and of the agreement which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, Through your seed a blessing will come on all the families of the earth.

²⁶ To you, first, God sent his servant, blessing you by turning every one of you from his sins.
