Acts 3:12-26
12But when PeterG4074 sawG3708 this, he repliedG611 to the peopleG2992, “MenG435 of IsraelG2475, whyG5101 are you amazedG2296 at thisG3778, orG2228 whyG5101 do you gazeG816 at us, as ifG5613 by our ownG2398 powerG1411 orG2228 pietyG2150 we had madeG4160 him walkG4043? 131The GodG2316 of AbrahamG11, IsaacG2464 and JacobG2384, 2the GodG2316 of our fathersG3962, has glorifiedG1392 His 34servantG3816 JesusG2424, the one whomG3739 5you deliveredG3860 and disownedG720 in the presenceG4383 of 6PilateG4091, when he had 7decidedG2919 to releaseG630 Him. 14But you disownedG720 8the HolyG40 and RighteousG1342 OneG1342 and 9askedG154 for a murdererG5406 to be grantedG5483 to you, 15but putG615 to deathG615 the 1011PrinceG747 of lifeG2222, the one whomG3739 12GodG2316 raisedG1453 from the deadG3498, a fact to whichG3739 we are 13witnessesG3144. 16And on the basisG1909 of faithG4102 14in His nameG3686, it is 15the nameG3686 of Jesus which has strengthenedG4732 thisG3778 man whomG3739 you seeG2334 and knowG3609; and the faithG4102 which comes throughG1223 Him has givenG1325 him thisG3778 perfectG3647 healthG3647 in the presenceG561 of you allG3956.
17“And nowG3568, brethrenG80, I knowG3609 that you actedG4238 16in ignoranceG52, justG5618 as your 17rulersG758 did alsoG2532. 18But the things whichG3739 18GodG2316 announcedG4293 beforehandG4293 by the mouthG4750 of allG3956 the prophetsG4396, 19that His 20ChristG5547 would sufferG3958, He has thusG3779 fulfilledG4137. 19ThereforeG3767 21repentG3340 and returnG1994, soG1519 that your sinsG266 may be wipedG1813 awayG1813, in orderG3704 that 22timesG2540 of refreshingG403 may comeG2064 from the presenceG4383 of the LordG2962; 20and that He may sendG649 JesusG2424, the 23ChristG5547 appointedG4400 for you, 2124whomG3739 heavenG3772 mustG1163 receiveG1209 untilG891 the 25periodG5550 of 26restorationG605 of allG3956 thingsG3956 about whichG3739 27GodG2316 spokeG2980 by the mouthG4750 of His holyG40 prophetsG4396 from ancientG165 timeG165. 22MosesG3475 saidG3004, ‘28The LordG2962 GodG2316 will raiseG450 up for you a prophetG4396 29likeG5613 me from your brethrenG80; to Him you shall giveG191 heedG191 to everythingG3956 He saysG2980 to you. 2330And it will be that everyG3956 31soulG5590 that does not heedG191 that prophetG4396 32shall be utterlyG1842 destroyedG1842 from amongG1537 the peopleG2992.’ 24And likewiseG2532, 33allG3956 the prophetsG4396 whoG3745 have spokenG2980, from SamuelG4545 and his successorsG2517 onwardG2517, alsoG2532 announcedG2605 theseG3778 daysG2250. 25It is you who are 34the sonsG5207 of the prophetsG4396 and of the 35covenantG1242 whichG3739 GodG2316 36madeG1303 with your fathersG3962, sayingG3004 to AbrahamG11, ‘37And in your seedG4690 allG3956 the familiesG3965 of the earthG1093 shall be blessedG1757.’ 26For you 38firstG4413, GodG2316 39raisedG450 up His 40ServantG3816 and sentG649 Him to blessG2127 you by turningG654 everyG1538 oneG1538 of you from your wickedG4189 waysG4189.”
