Acts 3 — Scripture text (King James Version)
Now and went up together into the at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour. And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the which is called , to ask alms of them that entered into the ; Who seeing and about to go into the asked an alms. And , fastening his eyes upon him with , said, Look us. And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them. Then said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of of rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the , walking, and leaping, and praising God. And all the people saw him walking and praising God: And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the gate of the : and they were filled with and amazement at that which had happened unto him. And as the lame man which was healed held and , all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called ’s, greatly wondering. And when saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of , why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk? The God of , and of , and of , the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son ; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of , when he was determined to let him go. But ye denied the Holy One and the , and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; And killed the of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. And his name through in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers. But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that should suffer, he hath so fulfilled. Repent 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; And he shall send , which before was preached unto you: Whom 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. For 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. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. Yea, and all the prophets from and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the which God made with our fathers, saying unto , And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed. Unto you first God, having raised up his Son , sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
