1 Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.
2 And a certain man lame from his mothers womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered the temple;
3 who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for alms.
4 And fixing his eyes on him, with John, Peter said, Look at us.
5 So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.
7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.
8 So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them; walking, leaping, and praising God.
9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God.
10 And they knew that it was he who sat for alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
1 Certo dia Pedro e João estavam subindo ao templo na hora da oração, às três horas da tarde.
2 Estava sendo levado para a porta do templo chamada Formosa um aleijado de nascença, que ali era colocado todos os dias para pedir esmolas aos que entravam no templo.
3 Vendo que Pedro e João iam entrar no pátio do templo, pediu-lhes esmola.
4 Pedro e João olharam bem para ele e, então, Pedro disse: "Olhe para nós! "
5 O homem olhou para eles com atenção, esperando receber deles alguma coisa.
6 Disse Pedro: "Não tenho prata nem ouro, mas o que tenho, isto lhe dou. Em nome de Jesus Cristo, o Nazareno, ande".
7 Segurando-o pela mão direita, ajudou-o a levantar-se, e imediatamente os pés e os tornozelos do homem ficaram firmes.
8 E de um salto pôs-se de pé e começou a andar. Depois entrou com eles no pátio do templo, andando, saltando e louvando a Deus.
9 Quando todo o povo o viu andando e louvando a Deus,
10 reconheceu que era ele o mesmo homem que costumava mendigar sentado à porta do templo chamada Formosa. Todos ficaram perplexos e muito admirados com o que lhe tinha acontecido.
