And when they were come in, they went up into the upper chamber, where they were abiding; both Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.

And in these days Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren, and said (and there was a multitude of persons gathered together, about a hundred and twenty),

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and spake forth unto them,'saying , Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and give ear unto my words.

Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do?

And Peter'said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Now Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour .

who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked to receive an alms.

And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him, with John, said, Look on us.

But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but what I have, that give I thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.

And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this man? or why fasten ye your eyes on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him to walk?

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders,

Now when they beheld the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken unto you rather than unto God, judge ye:

But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thy heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?

And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much. And she said, Yea, for so much.

But Peter'said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to try the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them that have buried thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee out.

insomuch that they even carried out the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that, as Peter came by, at the least his shadow might overshadow some one of them.

But Peter and the apostles answered and said, We must obey God rather than men.

Now when the apostles that were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:

But Peter said unto him, Thy silver perish with thee, because thou hast thought to obtain the gift of God with money.

And it came to pass, as Peter went throughout all parts, he came down also to the saints that dwelt at Lydda.

And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise and make thy bed. And straightway he arose.

And as Lydda was nigh unto Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men unto him, entreating him, Delay not to come on unto us.

And Peter arose and went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down and prayed; and turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

And now send men to Joppa, and fetch one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:

Now on the morrow, as they were on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour:

And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill and eat.

But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common and unclean.

Now while Peter was much perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men that were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood before the gate,

and called and asked whether Simon, who was surnamed Peter, were lodging there.

And while Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.

And Peter went down to the men, and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?

And when it came to pass that Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.

But Peter raised him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

Send therefore to Joppa, and call unto thee Simon, who is surnamed Peter; he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.

And Peter opened his mouth and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them that heard the word.

And they of the circumcision that believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.

For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,

But Peter began, and expounded the matter unto them in order, saying,

And I heard also a voice saying unto me, Rise, Peter; kill and eat.

and he told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying, Send to Joppa, and fetch Simon, whose surname is Peter;

And when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. And those were the days of unleavened bread.

Peter therefore was kept in the prison: but prayer was made earnestly of the church unto God for him.

And when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and guards before the door kept the prison.

And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shined in the cell: and he smote Peter on the side, and awoke him, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.

And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a truth, that the Lord hath sent forth his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but ran in, and told that Peter stood before the gate.

But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened, they saw him, and were amazed.

Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.

And when there had been much questioning, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Brethren, ye know that a good while ago God made choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

And when it came to pass that were parted from them and had set sail, we came with a straight course unto Cos, and the next day unto Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara:
