Acts 3:1-10 ▼

1 One day as Peter and John were going together to the temple, at the ninth hour, which was the hour of prayer,

2 they were carrying a man who had been lame from his birth, one whom they daily laid at the gate of the temple called, Beauty-gate, to ask alms of those that pass'd into the temple.

3 he seeing Peter and John going into the temple, asked alms of them.

4 Peter and John having their eyes upon him, Peter said, look on us.

5 at which he look'd very attentively, expecting to receive something of them.

6 then Peter said, silver and gold have I none; but such as I have I give thee: in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, rise up and walk.

7 and taking him by the right hand, he lift him up; and immediately his feet and ancle-bones received strength.

8 so that he fell a leaping, and walking, and entred with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

9 all the people saw him walking and praising God.

10 and knowing it was he who us'd to sit begging at the Beauty-gate of the temple, they were filled with wonder and amazement at such an event.
