2:30. Whereas therefore he was a prophet and knew that God hath sworn to him with an oath, that of the fruit of his loins one should sit upon his throne. 2:31. Foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ. For neither was he left in hell: neither did his flesh see corruption. 2:32. This Jesus hath God raised again, whereof all we are witnesses. 2:33. Being exalted therefore by the right hand of God and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath poured forth this which you see and hear. 2:34. For David ascended not into heaven; but he himself said: The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou on my right hand, 2:35. Until I make thy enemies thy footstool. 2:36. Therefore let all the house of Israel know most certainly that God hath made both Lord and Christ, this same Jesus, whom you have crucified. 2:37. Now when they had heard these things, they had compunction in their heart and said to Peter and to the rest of the apostles: What shall we do, men and brethren? 2:38. But Peter said to them: Do penance: and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 2:39. For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, whomsoever the Lord our God shall call. 2:40. And with very many other words did he testify and exhort them, saying: Save yourselves from this perverse generation. 2:41. They therefore that received his word were baptized: and there were added in that day about three thousand souls. 2:42. And they were persevering in the doctrine of the apostles and in the communication of the breaking of bread and in prayers. 2:43. And fear came upon every soul. Many wonders also and signs were done by the apostles in Jerusalem: and there was great fervor in all. 2:44. And all they that believed were together and had all things common. 2:45. Their possessions and goods they sold and divided them to all, according as every one had need. 2:46. And continuing daily with one accord in the temple and breaking bread from house to house, they took their meat with gladness and simplicity of heart: 2:47. Praising God and having favour with all the people. And the Lord increased daily together such as should be saved. Acts Chapter 3 The miracle upon the lame man, followed by the conversion of many. 3:1. Now Peter and John went up into the temple at the ninth hour of prayer. 3:2. And a certain man who was lame from his mother's womb was carried: whom they laid every day at the gate of the temple, which is called Beautiful, that he might ask alms of them that went into the temple. 3:3. He, when he had seen Peter and John, about to go into the temple, asked to receive an alms. 3:4. But Peter with John, fastening his eyes upon him, said: Look upon us. 3:5. But he looked earnestly upon them, hoping that he should receive something of them.
