1 OR Pietro e Giovanni salivano insieme al tempio, in su l’ora nona, che è l’ora dell’orazione.

2 E si portava un certo uomo, zoppo dal seno di sua madre, il quale ogni giorno era posto alla porta del tempio detta Bella, per chieder limosina a coloro che entravano nel tempio.

3 Costui, avendo veduto Pietro e Giovanni, che erano per entrar nel tempio, domandò loro la limosina.

4 E Pietro, con Giovanni, affissati in lui gli occhi, disse: Riguarda a noi.

5 Ed egli li riguardava intentamente, aspettando di ricever qualche cosa da loro.

6 Ma Pietro disse: Io non ho nè argento, nè oro; ma quel ch’io ho io tel dono: nel nome di Gesù Cristo, il Nazareo, levati, e cammina.

7 E presolo per la man destra, lo levò; ed in quello stante, le sue piante e caviglie si raffermarono.

8 Ed egli d’un salto si rizzò in piè, e camminava; ed entrò con loro nel tempio, camminando, e saltando, e lodando Iddio.

9 E tutto il popolo lo vide camminare, e lodare Iddio.

10 E lo riconoscevano, che egli era quel che sedeva in su la Bella porta del tempio, per chieder limosina; e furono ripieni di sbigottimento, e di stupore, per ciò che gli era avvenuto.

1 And Peter and John were going up at the same time to the temple, at the hour of the prayer, the ninth [hour],

2 and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,

3 who, having seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, was begging to receive a kindness.

4 And Peter, having looked stedfastly toward him with John, said, Look toward us;

5 and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;

6 and Peter said, Silver and gold I have none, but what I have, that I give to thee; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and be walking.

7 And having seized him by the right hand, he raised [him] up, and presently his feet and ankles were strengthened,

8 and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and did enter with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;

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

10 they were knowing him also that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what hath happened to him.
