< Acts 3 >

1 Nowe Peter and Iohn went vp together into the Temple, at the ninth houre of prayer.
Now Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, [being] the ninth [hour].
2 And a certaine man which was a creeple from his mothers wombe, was caried, whom they layde dayly at the gate of the Temple called Beautifull, to aske almes of them that entred into ye Temple.
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 Iohn, that they would enter into the Temple, desired to receiue an almes.
who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked to receive an alms.
4 And Peter earnestly beholding him with Iohn, said, Looke on vs.
And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him, with John, said, Look on us.
5 And hee gaue heede vnto them, trusting to receiue some thing of them.
And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Then said Peter, Siluer and gold haue I none, but such as I haue, that giue I thee: In the Name of Iesus Christ of Nazareth, rise vp and walke.
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 hee tooke him by the right hand, and lift him vp, and immediately his feete and ankle bones receiued strength.
And he took him by the right hand, and raised him up: and immediately his feet and his ankle-bones received strength.
8 And he leaped vp, stoode, and walked, and entred with them into the Temple, walking and leaping, and praysing God.
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 sawe him walke, and praysing God.
And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
10 And they knewe him, that it was he which sate for the almes at the Beautifull gate of the Temple: and they were amased, and sore astonied at that, which was come vnto him.
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 the creeple which was healed, held Peter and Iohn, all the people ranne amased vnto them in the porch which is called Salomons.
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 So when Peter saw it, he answered vnto the people, Ye me of Israel, why marueile ye at this? or why looke ye so stedfastly on vs, as though by our owne power or godlines, we had made this man go?
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 Isaac, and Iacob, the God of our fathers hath glorified his Sonne Iesus, whom ye betrayed, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had iudged him to be deliuered.
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 one and the Iust, and desired a murtherer to be giuen you,
But ye denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted unto you,
15 And killed the Lord of life, whome God hath raised from the dead, whereof we are witnesses.
and killed the Prince of life; whom God raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
16 And his Name hath made this man sound, whom ye see, and know, through faith in his Name: and the faith which is by him, hath giuen to him this perfite health of his whole body in the presence of you all.
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 through ignorance ye did it, as did also your gouernours.
And now, brethren, I know that in ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18 But those thinges which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his Prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled.
But the things which God foreshowed by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.
19 Amend your liues therefore, and turne, that your sinnes may be put away, whe the time of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
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 he shall sende Iesus Christ, which before was preached vnto you,
and that he may send the Christ who hath been appointed for you, [even] Jesus:
21 Whome the heauen must containe vntill the time that all thinges be restored, which God had spoken by the mouth of all his holy Prophets since the world began. (aiōn g165)
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. (aiōn g165)
22 For Moses said vnto the Fathers, The Lord your God shall raise vp vnto you a Prophet, euen of your brethren, like vnto me: ye shall heare him in all things, whatsoeuer he shall say vnto you.
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 For it shalbe that euery person which shall not heare that Prophet, shall be destroyed out of the people.
And it shall be, that every soul that shall not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.
24 Also all the Prophets from Samuel, and thencefoorth as many as haue spoken, haue likewise foretolde of these dayes.
Yea and all the prophets from Samuel and them that followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.

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.

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