Acts of the Apostles   2: 36-41

2:36 Therefore, may the entire house of Israel know most certainly that God has made this same Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”
2:37 Now when they had heard these things, they were contrite in heart, and they said to Peter and to the other Apostles: “What should we do, noble brothers?”
2:38 Yet truly, Peter said to them: “Do penance; and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
2:39 For the Promise is for you and for your sons, and for all who are far away: for whomever the Lord our God will have called.”
2:40 And then, with very many other words, he testified and he exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this depraved generation.”
2:41 Therefore, those who accepted his discourse were baptized. And about three thousand souls were added on that day.
