< Acts 3 >

1 Now Kepha and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
And it occurred, as Simon Cephas and John went together up to the temple, at the time of prayer, being the ninth hour,
2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
that, lo, those accustomed to bring a man lame from his mother's womb, brought him and laid him at the gate of the temple called Beautiful; that he might ask alms of those going into the temple.
3 Who seeing Kepha and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
This man, when he saw Simon and John going into the temple, asked them to give him alms.
4 And Kepha, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
And Simon and John looked on him, and said to him: Look on us.
5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
And he looked on them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Then Kepha said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Yahushua the Messiah of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Simon said to him: Gold and silver, I have not; but what I have, I give to thee; in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah, the Nazarean, rise up and walk.
7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ancle bones received strength.
And he took him by the right hand, and raised him up: and forthwith, his feet and his heels recovered strength.
8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising Elohim.
And he sprang, stood up, and walked: and he entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
9 And all the people saw him walking and praising Elohim:
And all the people saw him, as he walked and praised God.
10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.
And they knew that he was the beggar, who sat daily and asked alms, at the gate called Beautiful: and they were filled with wonder and admiration at what had occurred.
11 And as the lame man which was healed held Kepha and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
And as he held fast to Simon and John, all the people admiring ran to them at the portico called Solomon's.
12 And when Kepha saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?
And when Simon saw it, he answered and said to them: Men, sons of Israel, why do ye wonder at this? or why do ye gaze on us, as if by our own power or authority we had made this man to walk?
13 The Elohim of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the Elohim of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Yahushua; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he would have justified him and set him free.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
But ye denied the holy and just One, and demanded that a murderer should be released to you.
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom YHWH hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
And that Prince of life ye slew; and him, hath God raised from the dead, and all of us are witnesses of it.
16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
And, by the faith in his name, he hath strengthened and cured this man, whom ye see and know; and faith in him hath given the man this soundness before you all.
17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
And now, my brethren, I know that through misapprehensions ye did this, as did also your chiefs:
18 But those things, which Elohim before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that the Messiah should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
and God, according as he had previously announced by the mouth of all the prophets that the Messiah would suffer, hath in this manner fulfilled it.
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of YHWH;
Repent, therefore, and be converted; that so your sins may be blotted out,
20 And he shall send Yahushua the Messiah, which before was preached unto you:
and times of rest may come to you from before the face of the Lord; and he may send to you him, who was made ready for you, Jesus the Messiah:
21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which YHWH hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. (aiōn g165)
whom the heavens must retain, until the completion of the times of those things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets of old. (aiōn g165)
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall YHWH your Elohim raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
For Moses said: A prophet, like me, will the Lord raise up to you, from among your brethren; to him hearken ye, in all that he shall say to you.
23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
And it will be, that every soul who will not hearken to that prophet, that soul shall perish from his people.
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
And all the prophets that have been, from Samuel and those after him, have spoken and proclaimed of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which YHWH made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
Ye are the children of the prophets: and that covenant which God made with our fathers, when he said to Abraham, that in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed,
26 Unto you first YHWH, having raised up his Son Yahushua, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
he hath first established to you: and God hath sent his Son to bless you, if ye will be converted, and repent of your wickedness.
