Acts 3:7-22

⁷And taking hold of him by his right hand, he raised him; and immediately his feet and ankles were strengthened.

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

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

¹⁰Then they recognized that this was the one sitting for the alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with astonishment and amazement because of that which had happened to him.

¹¹And while the lame man who had been healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch which is called Solomon's, utterly astonished.

¹²So when Peter saw this, he replied to the people: “Men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? Or why look so intently at us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him to walk?

¹³The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you indeed delivered up and denied Him in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release Him.

¹⁴But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked that a murderer be released to you,

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

¹⁶And on the basis of faith in His name, this one whom you observe and know, was made strong by His name. And the faith, which is by Him, has given to him this wholeness before you all.

¹⁷“And now, brothers, I know that you acted in ignorance, as your rulers did also.

¹⁸But those things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled.

¹⁹Repent therefore and turn back, that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

²⁰and that He may send He who had been ordained to be your Messiah, Jesus,

²¹whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began.

²²For Moses said to the fathers, ‘The Lord our God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brothers. Him you shall hear in all things, whatever He says to you.’
