³⁴Then Peter began to speak: “Now I really understand that God doesn’t show favoritism, ^m³⁵but in every nation the person who fears Him and does righteousness is acceptable to Him. ³⁶He sent the message to the Israelites, proclaiming the good news of peace through Jesus Christ—He is Lord of all. ⁿ³⁷You know the events ^othat took place throughout Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John preached: ³⁸how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how He went about doing good and healing all who were under the tyranny of the Devil, because God was with Him. ^p³⁹We ourselves are witnesses of everything He did in both the Judean country and in Jerusalem, yet they killed Him by hanging Him on a tree. ^q⁴⁰God raised up this man on the third day and permitted Him to be seen, ⁴¹not by all the people, but by us, witnesses appointed beforehand by God, who ate and drank with Him after He rose from the dead. ^r⁴²He commanded us to preach to the people and to solemnly testify that He is the One appointed by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead. ^s⁴³All the prophets testify ^tabout Him that through His name ^ueveryone who believes in Him will receive forgiveness of sins.” ^v
