19. Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away,
20. and that the Lord may grant you times of refreshment and send you the Messiah already appointed for you, Jesus,
21. whom heaven must receive until the times of universal restoration of which God spoke through the mouth of his holy prophets from of old.
22. For Moses said:‘A prophet like me will the Lord, your God, raise up for youfrom among your own kinsmen;to him you shall listen in all that he may say to you.
23. Everyone who does not listen to that prophetwill be cut off from the people.’
24. Moreover, all the prophets who spoke, from Samuel and those afterwards, also announced these days.
25. You are the children of the prophets and of the covenant that God made with your ancestors when he said to Abraham, ‘In your offspring all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’
26. For you first, God raised up his servant and sent him to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways.”
