He sprang to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and leaping and praising God.

When all the people saw him walking and praising God,
10 And they knewe him that it was he which sate and begged at the beutifull gate of the temple. And they wondred and were sore astonnyed at that which had happened vnto him.
they recognized him as the man who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
11 And as ye halt which was healed helde Peter and Iohn all the people ranne amased vnto them in Salomons porche.
While the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and ran to them in the walkway called Solomon’s Colonnade.
12 When Peter sawe that he answered vnto the people. Ye men of Israel why marvayle ye at this or why looke ye so stedfastly on vs as though by oure awne power or holynes we had made this man goo?
And when Peter saw this, he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why are you surprised by this? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?
13 The God of Abraham Isaac and Iacob the God of oure fathers hath glorified his sonne Iesus whom ye delyvered and denyed in the presence of Pylate whe he had iudged him to be lowsed.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His servant Jesus. You handed Him over and rejected Him before Pilate, even though he had decided to release Him.
14 But ye denyed the holy and iust and desyred a mortherar to be geven you
You rejected the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.
15 and kylled the Lorde of lyfe whom God hath raysed from deeth of the which we are wytnesses.
You killed the Author of life, but God raised Him from the dead, and we are witnesses of the fact.
16 And his name thorow the fayth of his name hath made this man sound whom ye se and knowe. And the fayth which is by him hath geven to him this health in the presence of you all.
By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know has been made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through Him that has given him this complete healing in your presence.
17 And now brethre I wote well that thorow ignorauce ye did it as dyd also youre heddes.
And now, brothers, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders.
18 But those thinges which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his Prophetes how yt Christ shuld suffre he hath thus wyse fulfilled.
But in this way God has fulfilled what He foretold through all the prophets, saying that His Christ would suffer.
19 Repent ye therfore and turne yt youre synnes maye be done awaye when the tyme of refresshinge commeth which we shall have of the presence of the Lorde
Repent, then, and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped away,
20 and when God shall sende him which before was preached vnto you that is to wit Iesus Christ
that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send Jesus, the Christ, who has been appointed for you.

Heaven must take Him in until the time comes for the restoration of all things, which God announced long ago through His holy prophets. (aiōn g165)
22 For Moses sayd vnto the fathers: A Prophet shall the Lorde youre God rayse vp vnto you even of youre brethren lyke vnto me: him shall ye heare in all thinges whatsoever he shall saye vnto you.
For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He tells you.
23 For the tyme will come yt every soule which shall not heare that same Prophet shalbe destroyed from amonge the people.
Everyone who does not listen to Him will be completely cut off from among his people.’
24 Also all the Prophetes from Samuel and thence forth as many as have spoken have in lykwyse tolde of these dayes.
Indeed, all the prophets from Samuel on, as many as have spoken, have proclaimed these days.
25 Ye are the chyldren of the Prophetes and of the covenaunt which God hath made vnto oure fathers sayinge to Abraham: Eve in thy seede shall all the kinredes of the erth be blessed.
And you are sons of the prophets and of the covenant God made with your fathers when He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all the families of the earth will be blessed.’
26 Fyrst vnto you hath God raysed vp his sonne Iesus and him he hath sent to blysse you that every one of you shuld turne from youre wickednes.
When God raised up His Servant, He sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”
