3. When he saw Peter and John about to go into the Temple, he began asking to receive tzadakah.
4. But Peter, along with John, looked straight at him and said, “Look at us!”
5. So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.
6. But Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give to you—in the name of Yeshua ha-Mashiach ha-Natzrati, get up and walk!”
7. Then grabbing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.
8. Jumping up, he stood and began walking; and he went with them into the Temple, walking and leaping and praising God!
9. Now all the people saw him walking and praising God.
10. They began to realize he was the one who used to sit begging for tzadakah at the Beautiful Gate of the Temple, and they were filled with wonder and astonishment over what had happened to him.
11. While he was clinging to Peter and John, all the people together came running toward them in the place called Solomon’s Portico.
12. But when Peter saw, he responded to the people, “Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this? Why do you stare at us—as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?
13. The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His Servant Yeshua—the One you handed over and disowned before Pilate, though he had decided to release Him.
14. But you rejected the Holy and Righteous One and asked for a murderer to be granted to you.
15. You killed the Author of life—the One God raised from the dead! We are witnesses of it.
