Acts 3

the king version

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 from those who[1] entered into the temple, ³ who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for[2] 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[3] them.

⁶ Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I have none; but such as I have, I give you[4]: 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 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 knew that it was he who[5] 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 who[6] 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, “You[7] men of Israel, why do you[8] marvel at this? Or why do you look 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, has[9] glorified His Son Jesus, whom you[10] delivered up, and denied Him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let Him go. ¹⁴ But you[11] 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 has[12] raised from the dead; of which[13] we are witnesses.

¹⁶ And His name, through faith in His name, has[14] made this man strong, whom you[15] see and know. Yes, the faith which is by Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

¹⁷ And now, brethren, I know[16] that through ignorance you[17] did it, as did also your rulers. ¹⁸ But those things, which God before had shown[18] by the mouth of all His prophets, that Christ should suffer, He has[19] so fulfilled. ¹⁹ You[20] repent, 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, who[21] was before preached unto you, ²¹ whom the Heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God has[22] 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 you[23] hear in all things whatever[24] He shall say unto you. ²³ And it shall come to pass, that every soul, who[25] will not hear that Prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. _{[Deut. 18:15,18,19]}

²⁴ Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who[26] follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. ²⁵ You[27] are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, ‘And in your[28] seed shall all the families[29] of the earth be blessed.’ _{[Gen. 22:18; 26:4]} ²⁶ Unto you first, that[30] God, having raised up His Son Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
