For these men are not drunken, as ye suppose, for it is the third hour of the day. But this is that which was spoken through the prophet Joel: And it will be in the last days, says God, I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your elders will dream dreams. And also on my bondmen and on my bondmaids in those days I will pour out from my Spirit, and they will prophesy. And I will give wonders in the heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. The sun will be changed into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and wonderful day of Lord comes. And it will be, that every man, whoever may call on the name of Lord will be saved. Men, Israelites, hear ye these words. Jesus the Nazarene, a man shown by God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know, this man, having been designated (by the purpose and foreknowledge of God) a man delivered up, ye, having taken by lawless hands, killed, having crucified, whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it. For David speaks for him: I beheld the Lord always before me, because he is at my right hand, so that I may not be moved. Because of this my heart rejoiced, and my tongue was glad. And moreover my flesh will also rest in hope. Because thou will not leave my soul in Hades, nor will thou give thy Holy man to see decay. Thou made known to me the paths of life. Thou will fill me of joy with thy countenance. Men, brothers, being permitted to speak to you with openness about the patriarch David, that he both perished and was buried, and his sepulcher is with us to this day. Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, to raise the Christ from the fruit of his loins according to flesh to sit upon his throne. Having foreseen this, he spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that his soul was not left behind in Hades, nor did his flesh see decay. This Jesus, God raised up, of which we are all witnesses. Therefore, exalted by the right hand of God, and having received the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he poured out this that ye now see and hear. For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand until I place thine enemies a footstool of thy feet. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God has made him, this Jesus whom ye crucified, both Lord and Christ. Now having heard this, they were pierced in the heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles, Men, brothers, what will we do? And Peter said to them, Repent ye, and be immersed each of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission 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 those in afar, as many as Lord our God may call. And with many more other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, Be saved from this crooked generation. Indeed therefore those who received his word gladly, were immersed.
