And Peter having seen, he responded to the people, Men, Israelites, why do ye marvel at this man? Or why do ye stare at us, as by our own power or piety we have made him to walk? The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Boy Jesus, whom ye actually delivered up and denied him in the presence of Pilate who preferred to release that man.

And ye killed the Pathfinder of life, whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses. And by faith in his name, this man whom ye see and know, his name has made strong. And faith through him has given him this complete soundness in the presence of you all. And now, brothers, I know that ye did it from ignorance, as also your rulers. But this way God fulfilled what things were foretold, through the mouth of all his prophets, the Christ was to endure. Repent ye therefore, and be converted in order to wipe away your sins, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord. And he may send Christ Jesus who has been pre-ordained for you, whom heaven must indeed receive until the times of restoration of all things, of which God spoke through the mouth of all his holy prophets from the age. For Moses indeed said to the fathers, Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you, from your brothers, like me. Ye shall hear him in all things, as many as he might speak to you. And every soul, whichever it will be, if it will not hear that prophet will be utterly destroyed from the people.

To you first, having raised up his Boy Jesus, God sent him blessing you, in turning away each man from your evils.
