1 P edro e João subiam ao templo ã hora da oração, a nona.

Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

2 E , era carregado um homem, coxo de nascença, o qual todos os dias punham ã porta do templo, chamada Formosa, para pedir esmolas aos que entravam.

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 Beautiful, to ask gifts for the needy of those who entered into the temple.

3 O ra, vendo ele a Pedro e João, que iam entrando no templo, pediu que lhe dessem uma esmola.

Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.

4 E Pedro, com João, fitando os olhos nele, disse: Olha para nós.

Peter, fastening his eyes on him, with John, said, “Look at us.”

5 E ele os olhava atentamente, esperando receber deles alguma coisa.

He listened to them, expecting to receive something from them.

6 D isse-lhe Pedro: Não tenho prata nem ouro; mas o que tenho, isso te dou; em nome de Jesus Cristo, o nazareno, anda.

But Peter said, “Silver and gold have I none, but what I have, that I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!”

7 N isso, tomando-o pela mão direita, o levantou; imediatamente os seus pés e artelhos se firmaram

He took him by the right hand, and raised him up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength.

8 e , dando ele um salto, pôs-se em pé. Começou a andar e entrou com eles no templo, andando, saltando e louvando a Deus.

Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.

9 T odo o povo, ao vê-lo andar e louvar a Deus,

All the people saw him walking and praising God.

10 r econhecia-o como o mesmo que estivera sentado a pedir esmola ã Porta Formosa do templo; e todos ficaram cheios de pasmo e assombro, pelo que lhe acontecera.

They recognized him, that it was he who used to sit begging for gifts for the needy at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

11 A pegando-se o homem a Pedro e João, todo o povo correu atônito para junto deles, ao pórtico chamado de Salomão.

As the lame man who was healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.

12 P edro, vendo isto, disse ao povo: Varões israelitas, por que vos admirais deste homem? Ou, por que fitais os olhos em nós, como se por nosso próprio poder ou piedade o tivéssemos feito andar?

When Peter saw it, he responded to the people, “You men of Israel, 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?

13 O Deus de Abraão, de Isaque e de Jacó, o Deus de nossos pais, glorificou a seu Servo Jesus, a quem vós entregastes e perante a face de Pilatos negastes, quando este havia resolvido soltá-lo.

The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.

14 M as vós negastes o Santo e Justo, e pedistes que se vos desse um homicida;

But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,

15 e matastes o Autor da vida, a quem Deus ressuscitou dentre os mortos, do que nós somos testemunhas.

and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.

16 E pela fé em seu nome fez o seu nome fortalecer a este homem que vedes e conheceis; sim, a fé, que vem por ele, deu a este, na presença de todos vós, esta perfeita saúde.

By faith in his name, his name has 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.

17 A gora, irmãos, eu sei que o fizestes por ignorância, como também as vossas autoridades.

“Now, brothers, I know that you did this in ignorance, as did also your rulers.

18 M as Deus assim cumpriu o que já dantes pela boca de todos os seus profetas havia anunciado que o seu Cristo havia de padecer.

But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.

19 A rrependei-vos, pois, e convertei-vos, para que sejam apagados os vossos pecados, de sorte que venham os tempos de refrigério, da presença do Senhor,

“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,

20 e envie ele o Cristo, que já dantes vos foi indicado, Jesus,

and that he may send Christ Jesus, who was ordained for you before,

21 a o qual convém que o céu receba até os tempos da restauração de todas as coisas, das quais Deus falou pela boca dos seus santos profetas, desde o princípio.

whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke long ago by the mouth of his holy prophets.

22 P ois Moisés disse: Suscitar-vos-á o Senhor vosso Deus, dentre vossos irmãos, um profeta semelhante a mim; a ele ouvireis em tudo quanto vos disser.

For Moses 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.

23 E acontecerá que toda alma que não ouvir a esse profeta, será exterminada dentre o povo.

It will be that every soul that will not listen to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.’

24 E todos os profetas, desde Samuel e os que sucederam, quantos falaram, também anunciaram estes dias.

Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.

25 V ós sois os filhos dos profetas e do pacto que Deus fez com vossos pais, dizendo a Abraão: Na tua descendência serão abençoadas todas as famílias da terra.

You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘In your offspring will all the families of the earth be blessed.’

26 D eus suscitou a seu Servo, e a vós primeiramente vo-lo enviou para que vos abençoasse, desviando-vos, a cada um, das vossas maldades.

God, having raised up his servant Jesus, sent him to you first to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your wickedness.”
