Acts 3:19-26
1599 Geneva Bible
19 Amend your lives therefore, and turn, that your sins may be put away, when the time of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you.
21 [a]Whom the heaven must contain until the time that all things be restored, which God had spoken by the mouth of all his holy Prophets since the world began.
22 (A)For Moses said unto the Fathers, The Lord your God shall raise up unto you [b]a Prophet, even of your brethren, like unto me: ye shall hear him in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
23 For it shall be that every person which shall not hear that Prophet, shall be destroyed out of the people.
24 Also all the Prophets [c]from Samuel, and thenceforth as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 [d]Ye are the [e]children of the Prophets, and of the covenant, which God hath made unto our fathers, saying to Abraham, (B)Even in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
26 First unto you hath God [f]raised up his Son Jesus, and him he hath sent to bless you, in turning everyone of you from your iniquities.
