International Standard Version

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

1One afternoon, Peter and John were on their way to the Temple for the three o'clock prayer time.

2And a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those entering the temple courts.

2Now a man who had been crippled from birth was being carried in. Every day people would lay him at what was called the Beautiful Gate so that he could beg from those who were going into the Temple.

3When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.

3When he saw that Peter and John were about to go into the Temple, he asked them to give him something.

4Peter looked directly at him, as did John. “Look at us!” said Peter.

4Peter, along with John, looked him straight in the eye and said, "Look at us!"

5So the man gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

5So the man watched them closely, expecting to get something from them.

6But Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!”

6However, Peter said, "I don't have any silver or gold, but I'll give you what I do have. In the name of Jesus the Messiah from Nazareth, walk!"

7Taking him by the right hand, Peter helped him up, and at once the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.

7Then Peter took hold of his right hand and began to help him up. Immediately his feet and ankles became strong,

8He sprang to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and leaping and praising God.

8and he sprang to his feet, stood up, and began to walk. Then he went with them into the Temple, walking, jumping, and praising God.

9When all the people saw him walking and praising God,

10they recognized him as the man who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

11While the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and ran to them in the walkway called Solomon’s Colonnade.

11While he was holding on to Peter and John, all the people came running to them in what was called "Solomon's Colonnade". They were dumbfounded.

12And when Peter saw this, he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why are you surprised by this? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?

12When Peter saw this, he told the people: "Fellow Israelis, why are you wondering about this, and why are you staring at us as if by our own power or godliness we made him walk?
