1. NOW PETER and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour (three o'clock in the afternoon),
2. [When] a certain man crippled from his birth was being carried along, who was laid each day at that gate of the temple [which is] called Beautiful, so that he might beg for charitable gifts from those who entered the temple.
3. So when he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked them to give him a gift.
4. And Peter directed his gaze intently at him, and so did John, and said, Look at us!
5. And [the man] paid attention to them, expecting that he was going to get something from them.
