38 And Peter said to them, (A)“Repent and (B)be baptized every one of you (C)in the name of Jesus Christ (D)for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive (E)the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For (F)the promise is for you and (G)for your children and for all (H)who are far off, everyone (I)whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” 40 And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, (J)“Save yourselves from this (K)crooked generation.” 41 So those who received his word were baptized, and (L)there were added that day about three thousand souls.

The Fellowship of the Believers

42 And (M)they devoted themselves to the apostles' (N)teaching and the (O)fellowship, to (P)the breaking of bread and the prayers. 43 And awe[a] came upon every soul, and (Q)many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. 44 And all who believed were together and (R)had all things in common. 45 And (S)they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. 46 And day by day, (T)attending the temple (U)together and (V)breaking bread in their homes, they received their food (W)with glad and generous hearts, 47 praising God and (X)having favor with all the people. And the Lord (Y)added to their number (Z)day by day those who (AA)were being saved.
