But Peter seeing it, answered the people: Men of Israel, why wonder ye at this? Or why look ye earnestly on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made this man to walk? The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his servant Jesus, whom ye indeed delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him. But ye denied the holy and righteous one, and asked that a murderer should be granted to you. read more.
But the author of life ye killed; whom God raised from the dead, whereof we are witnesses. And his name, through faith in his name, made this man strong, whom ye see and know; yea, the faith which is through him gave him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. And now, brethren, I know that ye acted in ignorance, as did also your rulers. But God thus fulfilled what he had before announced by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ should suffer. Repent therefore and turn from your ways, that your sins may be blotted out, in order that the times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that he may send forth Christ Jesus, who was before appointed for you; whom heaven indeed must receive until the times of a restoration of all things; of which times God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from the days of old. Moses indeed said, "A prophet will the Lord your God raise up to you from among your brethren, as be raised up me; him shall ye hear in all things, whatever he shall speak to you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul which doth not hear that prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people."

Ye are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, "And in thy posterity shall all the families of the earth be blessed." To you first, God, having raised up his servant, sent him to bless you in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words. For these are not drunken, as ye suppose; for it is the third hour of the day; but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel, read more.
"It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams; and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day. And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved." Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew. But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it. For David saith concerning him, "I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved. Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope; because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance." Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day. Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne, he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear. For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, "Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified. And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do? But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call. And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.
"It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams; and even on my servants, and on my handmaids, I will pour out of my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord cometh, the great and notable day. And it shall be that every one that calleth on the name of the Lord shall be saved." Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus the Nazarene, a man approved of God to you by miracles, and wonders, and signs, which God wrought by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves know, this man, being delivered up by the settled purpose and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of godless men, crucified and slew. But God raised him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it. For David saith concerning him, "I saw the Lord always before me; because he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved. Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue exulted; moreover also, my flesh shall dwell in hope; because thou wilt not abandon my soul to the underworld, nor wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. Thou didst make known to me the ways of life; thou wilt make me full of joy with thy countenance." Brethren, I may speak to you with freedom of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is among us to this day. Being then a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that he would set one sprung from his loins upon his throne, he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that neither was he abandoned to the underworld, nor did his flesh see corruption. This Jesus God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye both see and hear. For David did not ascend into the heavens; but he himself saith, The Lord said to my lord, "Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified. And when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what must we do? But Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized to the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
