And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, where Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alpheus and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James;

And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples and said, (the number of names together was about a hundred and twenty,)

But Peter, standing up with the Eleven, lifted up his voice and said to them, Men, Jews, and all who dwell at Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to my words.

And hearing this, they were stabbed in the heart, and said to Peter and to the other apostles, Men, brothers, what shall we do?

Then Peter said to them, Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ to remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

And on the same day Peter and John went up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms.

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

But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!

And as the lame one who was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

And seeing this, Peter answered the people, Men, Israelites, why do you marvel at this? Or why do you stare at us, as though we had made this man to walk by our own power or holiness?

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and elders of Israel,

But seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and perceiving that they were unlearned and uneducated men, they marveled. And they recognized them, that they had been with Jesus.

But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right before God to listen to you more than to God, you judge.

But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart for you to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?

And Peter answered her, Tell me whether you sold the land for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.

Then Peter said to her, How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door and they will carry you out.

So as to carry out the sick into the streets and place them on cots and mattresses, so that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

And Peter and the apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

And the apostles in Jerusalem hearing that Samaria had received the Word of God, they sent Peter and John to them;

But Peter said to him, May your silver perish with you, because you have thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

And it happened, passing through all, Peter also came down to the saints who lived at Lydda.

And Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you; rise up and spread for yourself! And he arose immediately.

And, because Lydda was near Joppa, hearing that Peter is in it, the disciples sent two men to him, begging him not to delay to come to them.

And rising up, Peter went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper room. And all the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made while she was with them.

And putting them all out, Peter knelt 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 call for Simon, whose last name is Peter.

On the next day, as these went on the road, and drawing near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour.

And a voice came to him, saying, Rise, Peter! Kill and eat!

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

And while Peter doubted within himself what the vision which he had seen might be, even behold, the men who were sent from Cornelius had asked for Simon's house and stood on the porch.

And they called and asked if Simon whose last name is Peter was staying there.

And while Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men are looking for you.

And going down to the men, those sent to him from Cornelius, Peter said, Behold, I am the one you are seeking. For what reason have you come?

Then he called them in and lodged them. And on the next day Peter went away with them, and certain brothers from Joppa went with him.

And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped.

But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up! I also am a man myself.

Therefore send to Joppa and call here Simon whose last name is Peter, he is staying in the house of Simon, a tanner by the seaside; who, when he comes, shall speak to you.

Then Peter opened his mouth and said, Truly I see that God is no respecter of persons;

While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those hearing the Word.

And those of the circumcision, who believed (as many as came with Peter), were astonished because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out on the nations also.

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

And when Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him,

But Peter related the matter from the beginning and explained it by order to them, saying,

And I heard a voice saying to me, Arise, Peter! Kill and eat!

And he declared to us how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said to him, Send men to Joppa and call for Simon whose last name is Peter,

And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he went further to seize Peter also. (And they were days of Unleavened Bread.)

Then, indeed, Peter was kept in prison. But earnest prayer was made to God for him by the church.

And when Herod was about to bring him out, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Also guards were keeping the prison before the door.

And behold! An angel of the Lord stood by, and a light shone in the building. And striking Peter's side, he raised him up, saying, Rise up quickly! And his chains fell off his hands.

And having come to himself, Peter said, Now I know surely that the Lord has sent His angel and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

And as Peter knocked at the door of the porch, a girl named Rhoda came to listen.

And when she knew Peter's voice, she did not open the porch because of gladness, but running in she reported Peter was standing before the porch.

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

And day coming, there was not a little stir among the soldiers, saying, What, then, became of Peter.

And Herod was in bitter hostility with the men of Tyre and Sidon. But they came to him with one accord and, having made Blastus (who had charge of the king's bedroom) their friend, desired peace, because their country was fed by the king's country.

And after much disputing, Peter rose up and said to them, Men, brothers, you recognize that from ancient days God chose among us that through my mouth the nations should hear the Word of the gospel, and believe.

And it happened when it was time to sail, we having been torn away from them, running direct we came to Cos; and on the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.
