Acts, Chapter 3
{3:1} Rock and Yochanan were going up into the temple at the hour of
prayer, the ninth hour. {3:2} A certain man who was lame from his
mother's womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the door of
the temple which is called [1>]Yafeh[<1], to ask gifts for the needy
of those who entered into the temple. {3:3} Seeing Rock and Yochanan
about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.
{3:4} Rock, fastening his eyes on him, with Yochanan, said, "Look at
us." {3:5} He listened to them, expecting to receive something from
them. {3:6} But Rock said, "Silver and gold have I none, but what I
have, that I give you. In the name of Yeshua the Messiah of Natzeret,
get up and walk!" {3:7} He took him by the right hand, and raised him
up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength. {3:8}
Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the
temple, walking, leaping, and praising God. {3:9} All the people saw
him walking and praising God. {3:10} They recognized him, that it was
he who used to sit begging for gifts for the needy at the Yafeh Gate
of the temple. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had
happened to him. {3:11} As the lame man who was healed held on to Rock
and Yochanan, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is
called Shlomo's, greatly wondering.
{3:12} When Rock saw it, he responded to the people, "You men of
Yisra'el, why do you marvel at this man? Why do you fasten your eyes
on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him walk?
{3:13} The God of Avraham, Yitzchak, and Ya`akov, the God of our
fathers, has glorified his Servant Yeshua, whom you delivered up, and
denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release
him. {3:14} But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a
murderer to be granted to you, {3:15} and killed the Prince of life,
whom God raised from the dead, whereof we are witnesses. {3:16} By
faith in his name has his name made this man strong, whom you see and
know. Yes, the faith which is through him has given him this perfect
soundness in the presence of you all.
{3:17} "Now, brothers, I know that you did this in ignorance, as did
also your rulers. {3:18} But the things which God announced by the
mouth of all his prophets, that Messiah should suffer, he thus
fulfilled.
{3:19} "Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be
blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the
presence of the Lord, {3:20} and that he may send Messiah Yeshua, who
was ordained for you before, {3:21} whom heaven must receive until the
times of restoration of all things, which God spoke long ago by the
mouth of his holy prophets. {3:22} For Moshe indeed said to the
fathers, 'The Lord God will raise up a prophet for you from among your
brothers, like me. You shall listen to him in all things whatever he
says to you. {3:23} It will be, that every soul that will not listen
to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.'
{3:24} Yes, and all the prophets from Shemu'el and those who followed
after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days. {3:25}
You are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made
with our fathers, saying to Avraham, 'In your seed will all the
families of the [2>]eretz[<2] be blessed.' {3:26} God, having raised
up his servant, Yeshua, sent him to you first, to bless you, in
turning away everyone of you from your wickedness."
