CHAPTER 3 The Lame Man Healed

1 [²together ¹And] Peter and John ascended unto the temple at the hour of prayer -- the ninth. 2 And a certain man [²lame ³from ⁵belly ⁴his mother's ¹being] was borne, whom they put daily at the door of the temple being called Beautiful, to ask charity from the ones entering into the temple. 3 Who seeing Peter and John being about to enter into the temple, asked charity. 4 [³gazing ¹And ²Peter] at him with John, said, Look at us! 5 And he waited for them, expecting [²something ³from ⁴them ¹to receive]. 6 [³said ¹But ²Peter], Silver and gold does not exist to me; but what I have, this I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth arise and walk! 7 And laying hold of him by the right hand, he raised him. And immediately [⁵were solidified ¹his ²bases ³and ⁴ankles]. 8 And leaping up, he stood and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God. 9 And [⁴saw ⁵him ¹all ²the ³people] walking and praising God. 10 And they recognized him, that this one was the one [²for ³charity ¹sitting down] at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. And they were filled with stupefaction and astonishment over the thing having happened to him. 11 [⁵holding ¹And ²of the ⁴who was healed ³lame man] Peter and John, [⁴ran together ⁵to ⁶them ¹all ²the ³people] unto the stoa being called Solomon's, utterly astonished. 12 And seeing, Peter responded to the people, Men, Israelites, why do you marvel at this? or [³us ¹why ²gaze upon] as if it was by our own power or piety making him to walk? 13 The God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers glorified his servant Jesus; whom you delivered up, and denied him in front of Pilate, having adjudged to release that one. 14 But you [²the ³holy ⁴and ⁵righteous one ¹denied], and asked for a man, a murderer, to be granted to you; 15 and the chief of life you killed, whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses. 16 And by the belief, of the one of his name, this one whom you view, and you know, [²he made solid ¹his name]; and the belief which is by him he gave to him this wholeness before all of you. 17 And now, brethren, I know that according to ignorance you acted, as also your rulers. 18 But what God preannounced through the mouth of all his prophets, [³to suffer ¹for the ²Christ], he fulfilled thus. 19 Repent then, and turn, for the wiping away of your sins! so that [³should come ¹times ²of respite] from the presence of the Lord, 20 and he should send the one who was publicly proclaimed to you -- Jesus Christ, 21 which [²must ¹heaven] indeed receive till times of restoration of all things, of which God spoke through the mouth of all his holy prophets from the eon. 22 [²Moses ³indeed ¹For ⁵to ⁶the ⁷fathers ⁴said] that, [⁴a prophet ⁵unto you ³shall raise up ¹the Lord ²your God] from your brethren, as me; him you shall hear according to all as much as he should speak to you. 23 And it shall be every soul which ever should not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly destroyed from the people. 24 And indeed all the prophets from Samuel and of the ones in order, as many as spoke, also announced these days. 25 You are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant of which God ordained to our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your seed shall be blessed all the families of the earth. 26 To you first God, having raised up his servant Jesus, sent him blessing you, in the turning each from your wickednesses.
