3 ¹ ONE DAY at three in the afternoon, the hour of prayer, Peter and John were on their way up to the temple. 3 ² Now a man who had been a cripple from birth used to be carried there and laid every day by the gate of the temple called 'Beautiful Gate', to beg from people as they went in. 3 ³ When he saw Peter and John on their way into the temple he asked for charity. 3 ⁴ But Peter fixed his eyes on him, as John did also, and said, 'Look at us.' 3 ⁵ Expecting a gift from them, the man was all attention. 3 ⁶ And Peter said, 'I have no silver or gold; but what I have I give you: in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.' 3 ⁷ Then he grasped him by the right hand and pulled him up; and at once his feet and ankles grew strong; 3 ⁸ he sprang up, stood on his feet, and started to walk. He entered the temple with them, leaping and praising God as he went. 3 ⁹ Everyone saw him walking and praising God, 3 ¹⁰ and when they recognized him as the man who used to sit begging at Beautiful Gate, they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
