Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

3:12-26 The evangelistic speeches in the book of Acts focus on Jesus, the crucified and risen Lord. They call people to repentance and faith in Jesus as the promised Messiah and the divinely appointed Judge (2:38; 3:19; 11:18; 17:30; 26:20). They also offer the same Good News for the people of Israel and the Gentile world—“there is peace with God through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all” (10:36).
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

τὸν Ἅγιον καὶ Δίκαιον
the Holy_‹One› and Righteous_‹One›
Peter is using both the adjective Holy and the adjective Righteous to indicate a certain person, Jesus. (ULT adds One to indicate that.) Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could indicate specifically whom Peter means. Alternate translation: [Jesus, who was holy and righteous]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
τὸν Ἅγιον καὶ Δίκαιον
the Holy_‹One› and Righteous_‹One›
The terms Holy and Righteous mean similar things. Peter is using the two terms together for emphasis. Alternate translation: [the Supremely Holy One] or [Jesus, who was supremely holy]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸν Ἅγιον καὶ Δίκαιον
