Acts 3:7-22

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

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

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

¹⁰they 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.

¹¹And 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,

¹²and 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,

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

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

¹⁶and 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;

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

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

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

²¹whom 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;
