New Testament

Acts 3:1-9 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the ninth hour, the hour of prayer.

2. A man lame from birth was being carried, whom people placed daily at the gate of the temple called Beautiful to ask alms from those who entered the temple.

3. Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked for alms.

4. Peter, gazing at him with John, said, “Look at us.”

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

6. Then Peter said, “I have no silver and gold, but I give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”

7. He took him by the right hand and raised him up. Immediately his feet and ankles were strengthened.

8. Jumping up, he stood and walked and entered the temple with them, walking and jumping and praising God.

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