Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.
1Petrus autem et Joannes ascendebant in templum ad horam orationis nonam.
2A 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.
2Et quidam vir, qui erat claudus ex utero matris suæ, bajulabatur: quem ponebant quotidie ad portam templi, quæ dicitur Speciosa, ut peteret eleemosynam ab introëuntibus in templum.
3Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.
3Is cum vidisset Petrum et Joannem incipientes introire in templum, rogabat ut eleemosynam acciperet.
4Peter, fastening his eyes on him, with John, said, “Look at us.”
4Intuens autem in eum Petrus cum Joanne, dixit: Respice in nos.
5He listened to them, expecting to receive something from them.
5At ille intendebat in eos, sperans se aliquid accepturum ab eis.
6But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold, but what I have, that I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!”
6Petrus autem dixit: Argentum et aurum non est mihi: quod autem habeo, hoc tibi do: in nomine Jesu Christi Nazareni surge, et ambula.
7He took him by the right hand and raised him up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength.
7Et apprehensa manu ejus dextera, allevavit eum, et protinus consolidatæ sunt bases ejus et plantæ.
8Leaping up, he stood and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.
8Et exiliens stetit, et ambulabat: et intravit cum illis in templum ambulans, et exiliens, et laudans Deum.
9All the people saw him walking and praising God.
9Et vidit omnis populus eum ambulantem et laudantem Deum.
10They 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.
10Cognoscebant autem illum, quod ipse erat qui ad eleemosynam sedebat ad Speciosam portam templi: et impleti sunt stupore et extasi in eo quod contigerat illi.
11As 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.
11Cum teneret autem Petrum et Joannem, cucurrit omnis populus ad eos ad porticum quæ appellatur Salomonis, stupentes.
12When 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?
12Videns autem Petrus, respondit ad populum: Viri Israëlitæ, quid miramini in hoc, aut nos quid intuemini, quasi nostra virtute aut potestate fecerimus hunc ambulare?
13The 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.
13Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Jacob, Deus patrum nostrorum glorificavit filium suum Jesum, quem vos quidem tradidistis, et negastis ante faciem Pilati, judicante illo dimitti.
14But you denied the Holy and Righteous One and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,
14Vos autem sanctum et justum negastis, et petistis virum homicidam donari vobis:
15and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.
15auctorem vero vitæ interfecistis, quem Deus suscitavit a mortuis, cujus nos testes sumus.
16By 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.
16Et in fide nominis ejus, hunc quem vos vidistis et nostis, confirmavit nomen ejus: et fides, quæ per eum est, dedit integram sanitatem istam in conspectu omnium vestrum.
17“Now, brothers, I know that you did this in ignorance, as did also your rulers.
17Et nunc, fratres, scio quia per ignorantiam fecistis, sicut et principes vestri.
18But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.
18Deus autem, quæ prænuntiavit per os omnium prophetarum, pati Christum suum, sic implevit.
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,
19Pœnitemini igitur et convertimini, ut deleantur peccata vestra:
20and that he may send Christ Jesus, who was ordained for you before,
20ut cum venerint tempora refrigerii a conspectu Domini, et miserit eum qui prædicatus est vobis, Jesum Christum,
21whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke long ago by the mouth of his holy prophets.
21quem oportet quidem cælum suscipere usque in tempora restitutionis omnium quæ locutus est Deus per os sanctorum suorum a sæculo prophetarum.
22For 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.
22Moyses quidem dixit: Quoniam prophetam suscitabit vobis Dominus Deus vester de fratribus vestris, tamquam me: ipsum audietis juxta omnia quæcumque locutus fuerit vobis.
23It will be that every soul that will not listen to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.’
23Erit autem: omnis anima quæ non audierit prophetam illum, exterminabitur de plebe.
24Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, also told of these days.
24Et omnes prophetæ, a Samuel et deinceps, qui locuti sunt, annuntiaverunt dies istos.
25You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘All the families of the earth will be blessed through your offspring.’
25Vos estis filii prophetarum, et testamenti quod disposuit Deus ad patres nostros, dicens ad Abraham: Et in semine tuo benedicentur omnes familiæ terræ.
26God, having raised up his servant Jesus, sent him to you first to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your wickedness.”
26Vobis primum Deus suscitans filium suum, misit eum benedicentem vobis: ut convertat se unusquisque a nequitia sua.
