Healing of a Lame Man
3 Now Peter and John were going up together to the temple complex at the hour of prayer(A) at three in the afternoon.[a] 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.(B) 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,[b] 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!”(C) 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.(D) 9 All the people saw him walking and praising God, 10 and they recognized that he was the one who used to sit and beg at the Beautiful Gate of the temple complex. So they were filled with awe and astonishment at what had happened to him.(E)
Preaching in Solomon’s Colonnade
11 While he[c] was holding on to Peter and John, all the people, greatly amazed, ran toward them in what is called Solomon’s Colonnade.(F) 12 When Peter saw this, he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this? Or why do you stare at us, as though we had made him walk by our own power or godliness? 13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers,(G) has glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you handed over and denied in the presence of Pilate,(H) when he had decided to release Him. 14 But you denied the Holy and Righteous One(I) and asked to have a murderer given to you.(J) 15 You killed the source[d] of life, whom God raised from the dead; we are witnesses of this.(K) 16 By faith in His name, His name has made this man strong, whom you see and know. So the faith that comes through Him has given him this perfect health in front of all of you.
17 “And now, brothers, I know that you did it in ignorance, just as your leaders also did.(L) 18 But what God predicted through the mouth of all the prophets—that His Messiah would suffer—He has fulfilled(M) in this way. 19 Therefore repent(N) and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped out,(O) that seasons of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,[e] 20 and that He may send Jesus, who has been appointed(P) for you as the Messiah. 21 Heaven must welcome[f] Him until the times of the restoration of all things, which God spoke about by the mouth of His holy prophets from the beginning.(Q) 22 Moses said:[g]
The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He will say to you. 23 And everyone who will not listen to that Prophet will be completely cut off from the people.(R)[h]
24 “In addition, all the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel and those after him, have also announced these days. 25 You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant that God made with your ancestors, saying to Abraham, And all the families of the earth will be blessed through your offspring.(S)[i] 26 God raised up His Servant[j] and sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways.”(T)
Peter and John Arrested
4 Now as they were speaking to the people, the priests, the commander of the temple police, and the Sadducees confronted them,(U) 2 because they were provoked that they were teaching the people and proclaiming the resurrection from the dead, using Jesus as the example.[k](V) 3 So they seized them and put them in custody until the next day, since it was already evening. 4 But many of those who heard the message believed, and the number of the men came to about 5,000.
Peter and John Face the Jewish Leadership
5 The next day, their rulers, elders, and scribes assembled in Jerusalem 6 with Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John and Alexander, and all the members of the high-priestly family.[l](W) 7 After they had Peter and John stand before them, they asked the question: “By what power or in what name have you done this?”
8 Then Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders:[m](X) 9 If we are being examined today about a good deed done to a disabled man—by what means he was healed— 10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—whom you crucified and whom God raised from the dead—by Him this man is standing here before you healthy.(Y) 11 This Jesus is
12 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people, and we must be saved by it.”(AA)
The Name Forbidden
13 When they observed the boldness of Peter and John and realized that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed and recognized that they had been with Jesus.(AB) 14 And since they saw the man who had been healed standing with them, they had nothing to say in response. 15 After they had ordered them to leave the Sanhedrin, they conferred among themselves, 16 saying, “What should we do with these men? For an obvious sign, evident to all who live in Jerusalem, has been done through them, and we cannot deny it!(AC) 17 However, so this does not spread any further among the people, let’s threaten them against speaking to anyone in this name again.” 18 So they called for them and ordered them not to preach or teach at all in the name of Jesus.
19 But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it’s right in the sight of God for us to listen to you rather than to God, you decide;(AD) 20 for we are unable to stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.”(AE)
21 After threatening them further, they released them. They found no way to punish them, because the people were all giving glory to God over what had been done;(AF) 22 for this sign of healing had been performed on a man over 40 years old.
Prayer for Boldness
23 After they were released, they went to their own people and reported everything the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard this, they all raised their voices to God and said, “Master, You are the One who made the heaven, the earth, and the sea, and everything in them.(AG) 25 You said through the Holy Spirit, by the mouth of our father David Your servant:[p]
Why did the Gentiles rage
and the peoples plot futile things?
26 The kings of the earth took their stand
and the rulers assembled together
against the Lord and against His Messiah.(AH)[q]
27 “For, in fact, in this city both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people[r] of Israel, assembled together against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You anointed,(AI) 28 to do whatever Your hand and Your plan had predestined to take place. 29 And now, Lord, consider their threats, and grant that Your slaves may speak Your message with complete boldness,(AJ) 30 while You stretch out Your hand for healing, signs, and wonders(AK) to be performed through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.” 31 When they had prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak God’s message with boldness.(AL)
Believers Sharing
32 Now the large group of those who believed were of one heart and mind, and no one said that any of his possessions was his own, but instead they held everything in common.(AM) 33 And the apostles were giving testimony with great power to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was on all of them.(AN) 34 For there was not a needy person among them, because all those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,(AO) 35 and laid them at the apostles’ feet. This was then distributed for each person’s basic needs.[s](AP)
36 Joseph, a Levite and a Cypriot by birth, the one the apostles called Barnabas, which is translated Son of Encouragement,(AQ) 37 sold a field he owned, brought the money, and laid it at the apostles’ feet.(AR)
Lying to the Holy Spirit
5 But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property. 2 However, he kept back part of the proceeds with his wife’s knowledge, and brought a portion of it and laid it at the apostles’ feet.(AS)
3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart(AT) to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the proceeds from the field? 4 Wasn’t it yours while you possessed it? And after it was sold, wasn’t it at your disposal? Why is it that you planned this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God!” 5 When he heard these words, Ananias dropped dead, and a great fear came on all who heard.(AU) 6 The young men got up, wrapped his body, carried him out, and buried him.(AV)
7 There was an interval of about three hours; then his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 “Tell me,” Peter asked her, “did you sell the field for this price?”
“Yes,” she said, “for that price.”
9 Then Peter said to her, “Why did you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out!”(AW)
10 Instantly she dropped dead at his feet. When the young men came in, they found her dead, carried her out, and buried her beside her husband. 11 Then great fear came on the whole church and on all who heard these things.
Apostolic Signs and Wonders
12 Many signs and wonders were being done among the people through the hands of the apostles.(AX) By common consent they would all meet in Solomon’s Colonnade.(AY) 13 None of the rest dared to join them, but the people praised them highly.(AZ) 14 Believers were added to the Lord in increasing numbers—crowds of both men and women. 15 As a result, they would carry the sick out into the streets and lay them on cots and mats so that when Peter came by, at least his shadow(BA) might fall on some of them. 16 In addition, a large group came together from the towns surrounding Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
In and Out of Prison
17 Then the high priest took action. He and all his colleagues, those who belonged to the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy.(BB) 18 So they arrested[t] the apostles and put them in the city jail.(BC) 19 But an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail during the night, brought them out, and said,(BD) 20 “Go and stand in the temple complex, and tell the people all about this life.”(BE) 21 In obedience to this, they entered the temple complex at daybreak and began to teach.
The Apostles on Trial Again
When the high priest and those who were with him arrived, they convened the Sanhedrin—the full Senate of the sons of Israel—and sent orders to the jail to have them brought.(BF) 22 But when the temple police got there, they did not find them in the jail, so they returned and reported, 23 “We found the jail securely locked, with the guards standing in front of the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside!” 24 As[u] the commander of the temple police and the chief priests heard these things, they were baffled about them, as to what could come of this.
25 Someone came and reported to them, “Look! The men you put in jail are standing in the temple complex and teaching the people.” 26 Then the commander went with the temple police and brought them in without force, because they were afraid the people might stone them.(BG) 27 After they brought them in, they had them stand before the Sanhedrin, and the high priest asked, 28 “Didn’t we strictly order you not to teach in this name?(BH) And look, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to bring this man’s blood on us!”(BI)
29 But Peter and the apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men. 30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus,(BJ) whom you had murdered by hanging Him on a tree.(BK) 31 God exalted this man to His right hand as ruler and Savior, to grant repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.(BL) 32 We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit(BM) whom God has given to those who obey Him.”
Gamaliel’s Advice
33 When they heard this, they were enraged and wanted to kill them.(BN) 34 A Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law who was respected by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered the men[v] to be taken outside for a little while.(BO) 35 He said to them, “Men of Israel, be careful about what you’re going to do to these men. 36 Not long ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and a group of about 400 men rallied to him. He was killed, and all his partisans were dispersed and came to nothing.(BP) 37 After this man, Judas the Galilean rose up in the days of the census and attracted a following.[w] That man also perished, and all his partisans were scattered. 38 And now, I tell you, stay away from these men and leave them alone. For if this plan or this work is of men, it will be overthrown;(BQ) 39 but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You may even be found fighting against God.” So they were persuaded by him.(BR) 40 After they called in the apostles and had them flogged, they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus and released them.(BS) 41 Then they went out from the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to be dishonored on behalf of the Name.[x](BT) 42 Every day in the temple complex, and in various homes, they continued teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah.

Peter Heals a Lame Beggar
3 One day Peter and John(A) were going up to the temple(B) at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon.(C) 2 Now a man who was lame from birth(D) was being carried to the temple gate(E) called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg(F) from those going into the temple courts. 3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. 4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” 5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.
6 Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,(G) walk.” 7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. 8 He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping,(H) and praising God. 9 When all the people(I) saw him walking and praising God, 10 they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful,(J) and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
Peter Speaks to the Onlookers
11 While the man held on to Peter and John,(K) all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon’s Colonnade.(L) 12 When Peter saw this, he said to them: “Fellow Israelites, why does this surprise you? 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, Isaac and Jacob,(M) the God of our fathers,(N) has glorified his servant Jesus. You handed him over(O) to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate,(P) though he had decided to let him go.(Q) 14 You disowned the Holy(R) and Righteous One(S) and asked that a murderer be released to you.(T) 15 You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead.(U) We are witnesses(V) of this. 16 By faith in the name of Jesus,(W) this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.
17 “Now, fellow Israelites,(X) I know that you acted in ignorance,(Y) as did your leaders.(Z) 18 But this is how God fulfilled(AA) what he had foretold(AB) through all the prophets,(AC) saying that his Messiah would suffer.(AD) 19 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out,(AE) that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, 20 and that he may send the Messiah,(AF) who has been appointed for you—even Jesus. 21 Heaven must receive him(AG) until the time comes for God to restore everything,(AH) as he promised long ago through his holy prophets.(AI) 22 For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people; you must listen to everything he tells you.(AJ) 23 Anyone who does not listen to him will be completely cut off from their people.’[a](AK)
24 “Indeed, beginning with Samuel, all the prophets(AL) who have spoken have foretold these days. 25 And you are heirs(AM) of the prophets and of the covenant(AN) God made with your fathers. He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all peoples on earth will be blessed.’[b](AO) 26 When God raised up(AP) his servant, he sent him first(AQ) to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”
Peter and John Before the Sanhedrin
4 The priests and the captain of the temple guard(AR) and the Sadducees(AS) came up to Peter and John while they were speaking to the people. 2 They were greatly disturbed because the apostles were teaching the people, proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection of the dead.(AT) 3 They seized Peter and John and, because it was evening, they put them in jail(AU) until the next day. 4 But many who heard the message believed; so the number of men who believed grew(AV) to about five thousand.
5 The next day the rulers,(AW) the elders and the teachers of the law met in Jerusalem. 6 Annas the high priest was there, and so were Caiaphas,(AX) John, Alexander and others of the high priest’s family. 7 They had Peter and John brought before them and began to question them: “By what power or what name did you do this?”
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit,(AY) said to them: “Rulers and elders of the people!(AZ) 9 If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame(BA) and are being asked how he was healed, 10 then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,(BB) whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead,(BC) that this man stands before you healed. 11 Jesus is
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”(BE)
13 When they saw the courage of Peter and John(BF) and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men,(BG) they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.(BH) 14 But since they could see the man who had been healed standing there with them, there was nothing they could say. 15 So they ordered them to withdraw from the Sanhedrin(BI) and then conferred together. 16 “What are we going to do with these men?”(BJ) they asked. “Everyone living in Jerusalem knows they have performed a notable sign,(BK) and we cannot deny it. 17 But to stop this thing from spreading any further among the people, we must warn them to speak no longer to anyone in this name.”
18 Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.(BL) 19 But Peter and John replied, “Which is right in God’s eyes: to listen to you, or to him?(BM) You be the judges! 20 As for us, we cannot help speaking(BN) about what we have seen and heard.”(BO)
21 After further threats they let them go. They could not decide how to punish them, because all the people(BP) were praising God(BQ) for what had happened. 22 For the man who was miraculously healed was over forty years old.
The Believers Pray
23 On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God.(BR) “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them.(BS) 25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:(BT)
“‘Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
26 The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord
and against his anointed one.[d]’[e](BU)
27 Indeed Herod(BV) and Pontius Pilate(BW) met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus,(BX) whom you anointed. 28 They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen.(BY) 29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness.(BZ) 30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders(CA) through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”(CB)
31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken.(CC) And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit(CD) and spoke the word of God(CE) boldly.(CF)
The Believers Share Their Possessions
32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.(CG) 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify(CH) to the resurrection(CI) of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace(CJ) was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them,(CK) brought the money from the sales 35 and put it at the apostles’ feet,(CL) and it was distributed to anyone who had need.(CM)
36 Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas(CN) (which means “son of encouragement”), 37 sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles’ feet.(CO)
Ananias and Sapphira
5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself,(CP) but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.(CQ)
3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan(CR) has so filled your heart(CS) that you have lied to the Holy Spirit(CT) and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?(CU) 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal?(CV) What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”(CW)
5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died.(CX) And great fear(CY) seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body,(CZ) and carried him out and buried him.
7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”
“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”(DA)
9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord?(DB) Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died.(DC) Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.(DD) 11 Great fear(DE) seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.
The Apostles Heal Many
12 The apostles performed many signs and wonders(DF) among the people. And all the believers used to meet together(DG) in Solomon’s Colonnade.(DH) 13 No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people.(DI) 14 Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number.(DJ) 15 As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by.(DK) 16 Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed.(DL)
The Apostles Persecuted
17 Then the high priest and all his associates, who were members of the party(DM) of the Sadducees,(DN) were filled with jealousy. 18 They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.(DO) 19 But during the night an angel(DP) of the Lord opened the doors of the jail(DQ) and brought them out.(DR) 20 “Go, stand in the temple courts,” he said, “and tell the people all about this new life.”(DS)
21 At daybreak they entered the temple courts, as they had been told, and began to teach the people.
When the high priest and his associates(DT) arrived, they called together the Sanhedrin(DU)—the full assembly of the elders of Israel—and sent to the jail for the apostles. 22 But on arriving at the jail, the officers did not find them there.(DV) So they went back and reported, 23 “We found the jail securely locked, with the guards standing at the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside.” 24 On hearing this report, the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests(DW) were at a loss, wondering what this might lead to.
25 Then someone came and said, “Look! The men you put in jail are standing in the temple courts teaching the people.” 26 At that, the captain went with his officers and brought the apostles. They did not use force, because they feared that the people(DX) would stone them.
27 The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin(DY) to be questioned by the high priest. 28 “We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,”(DZ) he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man’s blood.”(EA)
29 Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!(EB) 30 The God of our ancestors(EC) raised Jesus from the dead(ED)—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross.(EE) 31 God exalted him to his own right hand(EF) as Prince and Savior(EG) that he might bring Israel to repentance and forgive their sins.(EH) 32 We are witnesses of these things,(EI) and so is the Holy Spirit,(EJ) whom God has given to those who obey him.”
33 When they heard this, they were furious(EK) and wanted to put them to death. 34 But a Pharisee named Gamaliel,(EL) a teacher of the law,(EM) who was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered that the men be put outside for a little while. 35 Then he addressed the Sanhedrin: “Men of Israel, consider carefully what you intend to do to these men. 36 Some time ago Theudas appeared, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men rallied to him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing. 37 After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census(EN) and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and all his followers were scattered. 38 Therefore, in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail.(EO) 39 But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God.”(EP)
40 His speech persuaded them. They called the apostles in and had them flogged.(EQ) Then they ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
41 The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing(ER) because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name.(ES) 42 Day after day, in the temple courts(ET) and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news(EU) that Jesus is the Messiah.(EV)
