Acts Of The Apostles 3:9-13 Common English Bible (CEB)

9. All the people saw him walking and praising God.

10. They recognized him as the same one who used to sit at the temple’s Beautiful Gate asking for money. They were filled with amazement and surprise at what had happened to him.

11. While the healed man clung to Peter and John, all the people rushed toward them at Solomon’s Porch, completely amazed.

12. Seeing this, Peter addressed the people: “You Israelites, why are you amazed at this? Why are you staring at us as if we made him walk by our own power or piety?

13. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—the God of our ancestors—has glorified his servant Jesus. This is the one you handed over and denied in Pilate’s presence, even though he had already decided to release him.
