The New Testament of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.: The common English version, corrected by the final committee of the American Bible Union.
Bible. New Testament
(17)And now, brethren, I know that ye acted in ignorance, as also your
rulers. (18)But thus God fulfilled what he before announced by the
mouth of all his prophets, that the Christ should suffer. (19)Repent
therefore, and turn, that your sins may be blotted out, in order that
the times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord;
(20)and that he may send forth Jesus Christ, before appointed for you;
(21)whom the heavens, indeed, must receive, until the times of the
restoration of all things, which God spoke of by the mouth of all his
holy prophets from the beginning. (22)Moses said: A Prophet will the
Lord your God raise up to you of your brethren, like unto me; him
shall ye hear in all things whatever he shall say to you. (23)And it
shall be that every soul, that will not hear that Prophet, shall be
utterly destroyed from among the people. (24)And also all the prophets
from Samuel, both he and they who followed, as many as spoke, also
foretold these days.
(25)Ye are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made
with our fathers, saying to Abraham: And in thy seed shall all the
nations of the earth be blessed. (26)Unto you first, God, having
raised up his servant Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away
every one of you from your iniquities.
IV.
AND while they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the
captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, (2)being
indignant because they taught the people, and announced in Jesus the
resurrection from the dead. (3)And they laid hands on them, and put
them in prison unto the morrow; for it was now evening.
(4)But many of those who heard the word believed; and the number of
the men became about five thousand.
(5)And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders,
and scribes, (6)and Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and
Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were
gathered together unto Jerusalem. (7)And having set them in the midst,
they asked: By what power, or by what name, did ye do this?
(8)Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: Rulers of
the people, and elders of Israel; (9)if we are this day examined in
respect to a good deed done to an impotent man, by what means this
person has been made whole; (10)be it known to you all, and to all the
people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom
ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him does this man
stand here before you whole. (11)He is the stone that was set at
naught by you the builders, which is become the head of the corner.
(12)And there is salvation in no other; for neither is there any other
name under heaven, that is given among men, in which we must be saved.
