1Now Peter and John were going up together to the temple complex at the hour of prayer at three in the afternoon.1Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
2And a man who was lame from birth was carried there and placed every day at the temple gate called Beautiful, so he could beg from those entering the temple complex.2And 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;
3When he saw Peter and John about to enter the temple complex, he asked for help. 3Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
4Peter, along with John, looked at him intently and said, "Look at us." 4And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
5So he turned to them, expecting to get something from them. 5And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
6But Peter said, "I don't have silver or gold, but what I have, I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!"6Then 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.
7Then, taking him by the right hand he raised him up, and at once his feet and ankles became strong. 7And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ancle bones received strength.
8So he jumped up, stood, and started to walk, and he entered the temple complex with them--walking, leaping, and praising God.8And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
9All the people saw him walking and praising God, 9And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
10and they recognized that he was the one who used to sit and beg at the Beautiful Gate of the temple complex. So they were filled with awe and astonishment at what had happened to him. 10And 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.
11While he was holding on to Peter and John, all the people, greatly amazed, ran toward them in what is called Solomon's Colonnade.11And 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.
12When Peter saw this, he addressed the people: "Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this? Or why do you stare at us, as though we had made him walk by our own power or godliness? 12And 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?
13The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you handed over and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release Him.13The 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.
14But you denied the Holy and Righteous One and asked to have a murderer given to you.14But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
15You killed the source of life, whom God raised from the dead; we are witnesses of this.15And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
16By faith in His name, His name has made this man strong, whom you see and know. So the faith that comes through Him has given him this perfect health in front of all of you." 16And 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.
17And now, brothers, I know that you did it in ignorance, just as your leaders also did.17And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18But what God predicted through the mouth of all the prophets--that His Messiah would suffer--He has fulfilled in this way. 18But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
19Therefore repent and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped out, that seasons of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,19Repent 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;
20and that He may send Jesus, who has been appointed for you as the Messiah. 20And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
21Heaven must welcome Him until the times of the restoration of all things, which God spoke about by the mouth of His holy prophets from the beginning.21Whom 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.
22Moses said: The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He will say to you.22For 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.
23And everyone who will not listen to that Prophet will be completely cut off from the people." 23And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24In addition, all the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel and those after him, have also announced these days. 24Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant that God made with your ancestors, saying to Abraham, And all the families of the earth will be blessed through your offspring.25Ye 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.
26God raised up His Servant and sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways." 26Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
