20and He may send Jesus Christ who before hath been preached to you,
21whom it behoveth heaven, indeed, to receive till times of a restitution of all things, of which God spake through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age.
22`For Moses, indeed, unto the fathers said -- A prophet to you shall the Lord your God raise up out of your brethren, like to me; him shall ye hear in all things, as many as he may speak unto you;
23and it shall be, every soul that may not hear that prophet shall be utterly destroyed out of the people;
24and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.
25`Ye are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made unto our fathers, saying unto Abraham: And in thy seed shall be blessed all the families of the earth;
26to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, did send him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.`
