Acts 3:16

¹⁴ You rejected the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.

¹⁵ You killed the Author of life, but God raised Him from the dead, and we are witnesses of the fact.

By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know has been made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through Him that has given him this complete healing in your presence.

¹⁷ And now, brothers, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders.

¹⁸ But in this way God has fulfilled what He foretold through all the prophets, saying that His Christ would suffer.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
