1 One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer —at three in the afternoon.2 Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts.3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!"5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.6 Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk."7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong.8 He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.9 When all the people saw him walking and praising God,10 they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.11 While the man held on to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon's Colonnade.12 When Peter saw this, he said to them: "Fellow Israelites, why does this surprise you? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?13 The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus. You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go.14 You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.15 You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this.16 By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.17 "Now, fellow Israelites, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders.18 But this is how God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets, saying that his Messiah would suffer.19 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord,20 and that he may send the Messiah, who has been appointed for you —even Jesus.21 Heaven must receive him until the time comes for God to restore everything, as he promised long ago through his holy prophets.22 For Moses said, 'The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people; you must listen to everything he tells you.23 Anyone who does not listen to him will be completely cut off from their people.' [^1]24 "Indeed, beginning with Samuel, all the prophets who have spoken have foretold these days.25 And you are heirs of the prophets and of the covenant God made with your fathers. He said to Abraham, 'Through your offspring all peoples on earth will be blessed.' [^2]26 When God raised up his servant, he sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways."

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
