Other Translations - Acts 2:37-41:
 When
the people heard this, they were cut to the heart
and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers,
what shall we do?" 38 Peter replied, "Repent and be
baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus
Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you
will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The
promise is for you and your children and for all who
are far off-- for all whom the Lord our God will
call." 40 With many other words he warned them; and
he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this
corrupt generation." 41 Those who accepted his
message were baptized, and about three thousand were
added to their number that day. (NIV)
 Now
when they heard this, they were cut to the heart,
and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Men
and brethren, what shall we do?" 38 Then Peter said
to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be
baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of
the Holy Spirit. 39 "For the promise is to you and
to your children, and to all who are afar off, as
many as the Lord our God will call." 40 And with
many other words he testified and exhorted them,
saying, "Be saved from this perverse generation." 41
Then those who gladly received his word were
baptized; and that day about three thousand souls
were added to them. (NKJ)
 Now
when they heard (this,) they were pricked in their
heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the
apostles, Brethren, what shall we do? 38 And Peter
(said) unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every
one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the
remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the
gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For to you is the
promise, and to your children, and to all that are
afar off, (even) as many as the Lord our God shall
call unto him. 40 And with many other words he
testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save
yourselves from this crooked generation. 41 They
then that received his word were baptized: and there
were added (unto them) in that day about three
thousand souls. (ASV)

every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of
the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and

as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with
