Lectio Actuum Apostolorum – Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles

Acts 4 : 8-12

In diebus illis : Petrus, repletus Spiritu Sancto, dixit : Principes populi et seniores, audite : Si nos hodie dijudicamur in benefacto hominis infirmi, in quo iste salvus factus est, notum sit omnibus vobis et omni plebi Israel : quia in Nomine Domini nostri Jesu Christi Nazareni, quem vos crucifixistis, quem Deus suscitavit a mortuis, in hoc iste astat coram vobis sanus.

Hic est lapis, qui reprobatus est a vobis aedificantibus : qui factus est in caput anguli : et non est in alio aliquo salus. Nec enim aliud Nomen est sub caelo datum hominibus, in quo oporteat nos salvos fieri.

English translation

In those days, Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said, “All of you, princes of the people and the elders, hear, if we this day are examined concerning the good deed done to the infirm man, by what means he had been made whole, be it known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that by the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Whom you crucified, Whom God had raised from the dead, even by Him this man stood here before you whole.

This is the stone which was rejected by you the builders, which has become the cornerstone, neither there is salvation in any other. For there is no other Name under heaven given to men, whereby we must be saved.
