1 وصعد بطرس ويوحنا معا الى الهيكل في ساعة الصلاة التاسعة‎.2 ‎وكان رجل اعرج من بطن امه يحمل. كانوا يضعونه كل يوم عند باب الهيكل الذي يقال له الجميل ليسأل صدقة من الذين يدخلون الهيكل‎.3 ‎فهذا لما رأى بطرس ويوحنا مزمعين ان يدخلا الهيكل سأل ليأخذ صدقة.4 فتفرس فيه بطرس مع يوحنا وقال انظر الينا‎.5 ‎فلاحظهما منتظرا ان يأخذ منهما شيئا‎.6 ‎فقال بطرس ليس لي فضة ولا ذهب ولكن الذي لي فاياه اعطيك. باسم يسوع المسيح الناصري قم وامش‎.7 ‎وامسكه بيده اليمنى واقامه ففي الحال تشددت رجلاه وكعباه8 فوثب ووقف وصار يمشي ودخل معهما الى الهيكل وهو يمشي ويطفر ويسبح الله‎.9 ‎وابصره جميع الشعب وهو يمشي ويسبح الله‎.10 ‎وعرفوه انه هو الذي كان يجلس لاجل الصدقة على باب الهيكل الجميل فامتلأوا دهشة وحيرة مما حدث له11 وبينما كان الرجل الاعرج الذي شفي متمسكا ببطرس ويوحنا تراكض اليهم جميع الشعب الى الرواق الذي يقال له رواق سليمان وهم مندهشون‎.12 ‎فلما رأى بطرس ذلك اجاب الشعب ايها الرجال الاسرائيليون ما بالكم تتعجبون من هذا ولماذا تشخصون الينا كاننا بقوتنا او تقوانا قد جعلنا هذا يمشي‎.13 ‎ان اله ابراهيم واسحق ويعقوب اله آبائنا مجد فتاه يسوع الذي اسلمتموه انتم وانكرتموه امام وجه بيلاطس وهو حاكم باطلاقه‎.14 ‎ولكن انتم انكرتم القدوس البار وطلبتم ان يوهب لكم رجل قاتل‎.15 ‎ورئيس الحياة قتلتموه الذي اقامه الله من الاموات ونحن شهود لذلك.16 وبالايمان باسمه شدد اسمه هذا الذي تنظرونه وتعرفونه والايمان الذي بواسطته اعطاه هذه الصحة امام جميعكم17 والآن ايها الاخوة انا اعلم انكم بجهالة عملتم كما رؤساؤكم ايضا.18 واما الله فما سبق وانبأ به بافواه جميع انبيائه ان يتألم المسيح قد تممه هكذا‎.19 ‎فتوبوا وارجعوا لتمحى خطاياكم لكي تأتي اوقات الفرج من وجه الرب.20 ويرسل يسوع المسيح المبشر به لكم قبل‎.21 ‎الذي ينبغي ان السماء تقبله الى ازمنة رد كل شيء التي تكلم عنها الله بفم جميع انبيائه القديسين منذ الدهر‎.22 ‎فان موسى قال للآباء ان نبيا مثلي سيقيم لكم الرب الهكم من اخوتكم. له تسمعون في كل ما يكلمكم به‎.23 ‎ويكون ان كل نفس لا تسمع لذلك النبي تباد من الشعب‎.24 ‎وجميع الانبياء ايضا من صموئيل فما بعده جميع الذين تكلموا سبقوا وانبأوا بهذه الايام‎.25 ‎انتم ابناء الانبياء والعهد الذي عاهد به الله آباءنا قائلا لابراهيم وبنسلك تتبارك جميع قبائل الارض‎.26 ‎اليكم اولا اذ اقام الله فتاه يسوع ارسله يبارككم برد كل واحد منكم عن شروره

1 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.2 And a certain man lame from his mother' womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.4 And Peter, fastening his eyes on him with John, said, Look on us.5 And he gave heed to them, expecting to receive something of them.6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened to him.11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon', greatly wondering.12 And when Peter saw it, he answered to the people, You men of Israel, why marvel you at this? or why look you so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus; whom you delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.14 But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted to you;15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God has raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.16 And his name through faith in his name has made this man strong, whom you see and know: yes, the faith which is by him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.17 And now, brothers, I know that through ignorance you did it, as did also your rulers.18 But those things, which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he has so fulfilled.19 Repent you therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached to you:21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.22 For Moses truly said to the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you of your brothers, like to me; him shall you hear in all things whatever he shall say to you.23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.24 Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.25 You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.26 To you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
