Acts 3:14-24

14 "But you disowned ¹the Holy and Righteous One and ²asked for a murderer to be granted to you,

15 but put to death the ³Prince of life, the one whom ⁴God raised from the dead, a fact to which we are ⁵witnesses.

16 "And on the basis of faith ⁶in His name, it is the name of Jesus which has strengthened this man whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect health in the presence of you all.

17 "And now, brethren, I know that you acted ⁷in ignorance, just as your ⁸rulers did also.

18 "But the things which ⁹God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, ¹⁰that His Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled.

19 "Therefore ¹¹repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that ¹²times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord;

20 and that He may send Jesus, the Christ appointed for you,

21 ¹³whom heaven must receive until the period of ¹⁴restoration of all things about which ¹⁵God spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from ancient time.

22 "Moses said, '¹⁶THE LORD GOD WILL RAISE UP FOR YOU A PROPHET LIKE ME FROM YOUR BRETHREN; TO HIM YOU SHALL GIVE HEED to everything He says to you.

23 '¹⁷And it will be that every ¹⁸soul that does not heed that prophet ¹⁹shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.'

24 "And likewise, ²⁰all the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel and his successors onward, also announced these days.
