\v 36 You know the message that God sent to us Israelites. He proclaimed to us the good news that he would cause people to have peace with him because of what Jesus Christ has done. This Jesus is not Lord only over us Israelites. He is also the Lord who rules over all people.
\v 37 You know what he did throughout the land of Judea, beginning in Galilee. He began to do those things after John had been proclaiming to people that they should turn away from their sinful behavior before he baptized them.
\v 38 You know that God gave his Holy Spirit to Jesus, the man from the town of Nazareth, and gave him the power to do miracles. You also know how Jesus went to many places, always doing good deeds and healing people. He was healing all the people whom the devil was causing to suffer. Jesus was able to do those things because God was always helping him."

\v 39 "We apostles tell people about all the things that we saw Jesus do in Jerusalem and in the rest of Israel. The leaders in Jerusalem had him killed by being nailed to a cross.
\v 40 However, God caused him to become alive again on the third day after he had died. God also enabled some of us to see him so that we would know that he was alive again.
\v 41 God did not let all the Jewish people see him. Instead, he had chosen us apostles beforehand to see Jesus after he became alive again and to tell others about him. We apostles are the people who ate meals with him after he had become alive again.
\v 39 "We all saw the things Jesus did in Jerusalem and around all the country of the Jews. His enemies killed him by nailing him to a cross made of the wood.
\v 40 Then God raised him back to life on the third day after he died, and he made sure that many people would see him after he came back to life. People were sure it was him who had died, and now they saw with their own eyes that he was alive.
\v 41 God did not let all everyone see him then, but only those he had chosen to be with him and to eat a meal with him after God raised him back to life.

\v 42 God commanded us to preach to the people and tell them that Jesus is the one whom he has appointed to judge everyone some day. He will judge all those who will still be living and all those who will have died by that time.
\v 43 All of the prophets who wrote about him long ago told people about him. They wrote that if people believe in him, God would forgive them for their sins, because of what this man would do for them."

\v 44 While Peter was still speaking those words, suddenly the Holy Spirit came down on all those non-Jewish people who were listening to the message.
\v 45 The Jewish believers who had come with Peter from Joppa were amazed that God had generously given the Holy Spirit to the non-Jewish people, too.
