Acts 3:1-8 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. Now Peter and John were going up together to the temple complex at the hour of prayer at three in the afternoon.

2. And a man who was lame from birth was carried there and placed every day at the temple gate called Beautiful, so he could beg from those entering the temple complex.

3. When he saw Peter and John about to enter the temple complex, he asked for help.

4. Peter, along with John, looked at him intently and said, “Look at us.”

5. So he turned to them, expecting to get something from them.

6. But Peter said, “I don’t have silver or gold, but what I have, I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk! ”

7. Then, taking him by the right hand he raised him up, and at once his feet and ankles became strong.

8. So he jumped up, stood, and started to walk, and he entered the temple complex with them — walking, leaping, and praising God.
