Peter and John Heal a Lame Man at the Temple

3:1 Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time1 for prayer,2 at three o’clock in the afternoon.3 3:2 And a man lame4 from birth5 was being carried up, who was placed at the temple gate called “the Beautiful Gate” every day6 so he could beg for money7 from those going into the temple courts.8 3:3 When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple courts,9 he asked them for money.10 3:4 Peter looked directly11 at him (as did John) and said, “Look at us!” 3:5 So the lame man12 paid attention to them, expecting to receive something from them. 3:6 But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold,13 but what I do have I give you. In the name14 of Jesus Christ15 the Nazarene, stand up and16 walk!” 3:7 Then17 Peter18 took hold19 of him by the right hand and raised him up, and at once the man’s20 feet and ankles were made strong.21 3:8 He22 jumped up,23 stood and began walking around, and he entered the temple courts24 with them, walking and leaping and praising God. 3:9 All25 the people saw him walking and praising God, 3:10 and they recognized him as the man who used to sit and ask for donations26 at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with astonishment and amazement27 at what had happened to him.
