Acts 3
1 NOW at that time Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth;
And Peter and John were going up at the same time into the temple, at the hour of the prayer, the ninth [hour],
2 when a certain man who was lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple called Beautiful, to ask alms of those who were entering into the temple;
and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,
3 who seeing Peter and John just going into the temple, asked to receive alms.
who, having seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, was begging to receive a kindness.
4 Then Peter fixing his eves stedfastly on him with John, said, Look on us.
And Peter, having looked steadfastly toward him with John, said, “Look toward us”;
5 So he attentively regarded them, expecting to receive something from them.
and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;
6 Then said Peter, I have neither silver nor gold; but what I have, that I give thee: By the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarean, arise, and walk!
and Peter said, “I have no silver and gold, but what I have, that I give to you; in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and be walking.”
7 And taking him by the right hand, he raised him up: and immediately his feet and ancles were restored to strength.
And having seized him by the right hand, he raised [him] up, and instantly his feet and ankles were strengthened,
8 And springing up he stood on his feet, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and entered with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;
9 And all the people beheld him walking and praising God:
and all the people saw him walking and praising God,
10 and they took notice of him, that it was the same person who had sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with astonishment and amazed at what had happened to him.
and they knew him, that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what has happened to him.
11 But as the lame man that was cured held fast Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them into the portico called Solomon’s, in vast amazement.
And at the lame man who was healed holding Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch called Solomon’s—greatly amazed,
12 Then Peter observing it, addressed himself to the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why gaze ye upon us, as if by our own power or piety we had enabled this man to walk?
and Peter having seen, answered to the people, “Men, Israelites! Why do you wonder at this? Or why do you look on us so earnestly, as if by our own power or piety we have made him to walk?
13 The God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified His child Jesus, whom you delivered up, and denied Him in the presence of Pilate, he having given judgment to release [Him],
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and besought that a man, a murderer, might as a favour be given unto you;
and you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and desired a man—a murderer—to be granted to you,
15 but ye slew the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead: of which we are witnesses.
and the Prince of life you killed, whom God raised out of the dead, of which we are witnesses;
16 And through faith in his name hath his name restored this man to strength, whom ye behold and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the sight of you all.
and on the faith of His Name, this one whom you see and have known, His Name made strong, even the faith that [is] through Him gave to him this perfect soundness before you all.
17 And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did this deed, as did also your rulers.
And now, brothers, I have known that through ignorance you did [it], as also your rulers;
18 But the things which God before announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Messiah should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled.
and God, what things He had declared before through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He thus fulfilled;
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when refreshing seasons shall come from the presence of the Lord;
convert, therefore, and turn back, for your sins being blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the LORD,
20 and he will send Jesus Christ, who was before preached unto you:
and He may send Jesus Christ who before has been preached to you,
21 whom the heaven indeed must receive, until the times of restoration of all things, which God hath spoken of by the mouth of all his holy prophets from the beginning of the world. (aiōn g165)
whom Heaven required, indeed, to receive until times of a restitution of all things, of which God spoke through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age. (aiōn g165)
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, “A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like myself; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall speak to you.
For Moses, indeed, said to the fathers—The LORD your God will raise up a Prophet to you out of your brothers, like to me; you will hear Him in all things, as many as He may speak to you;
23 But it shall come to pass, that every soul which will not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly exterminated from amidst the people.”
and it will be, every soul that may not hear that Prophet will be utterly destroyed out of the people;
24 And all the prophets indeed from Samuel, and those who succeeded him, as many as have spoken, have also foretold those days.
and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spoke, also foretold of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And “in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.”
You are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made to our fathers, saying to Abraham: And in your Seed will all the families of the earth be blessed;
26 Unto you in the first instance, hath God, after raising up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, to the end that every one of you should turn away from your iniquities.
to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, sent Him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.”
