Acts 3:1-8

Healing the Lame Beggar

1 Now ¹Peter and John were going up to the temple at the ninth hour, ²the hour of prayer.

2 And ³a man who had been lame from his mother's womb was being carried along, whom they ⁴used to set down every day at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, ⁵in order to beg alms of those who were entering the temple.

3 When he saw ⁶Peter and John about to go into the temple, he began asking to receive alms.

4 But Peter, along with John, ⁷fixed his gaze on him and said, "Look at us!"

5 And he began to give them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

6 But Peter said, "I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: ⁸In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene -walk!"

7 And seizing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened.

8 ⁹With a leap he stood upright and began to walk; and he entered the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God.
