Acts 3:2-11

2A man lame from birth was being carried—every day they used to put him at the Temple gate called Beautiful, so he could beg for tzadakah from those entering the Temple.

3When he saw Peter and John about to go into the Temple, he began asking to receive tzadakah.

4But Peter, along with John, looked straight at him and said, “Look at us!”

5So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

6But 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!”

7Then grabbing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.

8Jumping up, he stood and began walking; and he went with them into the Temple, walking and leaping and praising God!

9Now all the people saw him walking and praising God.

10They 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.

11While he was clinging to Peter and John, all the people together came running toward them in the place called Solomon’s Portico.
