彼得医治瘸腿的乞丐

一天,在下午三点祷告的时间,彼得和约翰去圣殿。 有一个生来瘸腿的人天天被人抬到圣殿美门的外面,向进殿的人乞讨。 他看见彼得和约翰要进殿,就求他们施舍。 二人定睛看他,彼得说:“看着我们!” 那人就紧盯着他们,期盼能有所收获。

彼得说:“金子、银子我都没有,但是我把我有的给你。我奉拿撒勒人耶稣基督的名,命令你起来行走!”

彼得拉着他的右手扶他起来,那人的脚和踝骨立刻变得强健有力。 他跳了起来,站稳后开始行走,跟着彼得和约翰进入圣殿,走着跳着赞美上帝。 大家看见他一边走一边赞美上帝, 10 认出他就是那个在美门外面的乞丐,都为发生在他身上的事而感到惊奇、诧异。 11 那乞丐紧紧拉着彼得和约翰的手走到所罗门廊,众人都跑过来,啧啧称奇。

And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.

Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.

11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
