Acts 5:12-16
Christian Standard Bible
Apostolic Signs and Wonders
12 Many signs and wonders were being done among the people through the hands of the apostles.(A) They were all together in Solomon’s Colonnade.(B) 13 No one else dared to join them, but the people spoke well of them.(C) 14 Believers were added to the Lord in increasing numbers—multitudes 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(D) might fall on some of them. 16 In addition, a multitude came together from the towns surrounding Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.

Many Signs and Wonders Are Performed by the Apostles
12 Now many signs and wonders were being performed among the people through the hands of the apostles. And they were all together[a] in Solomon’s Portico. 13 And none of the rest dared to join them, but the people spoke highly of them. 14 And even more believers in the Lord[b] were being added, large numbers of both men and women, 15 so that they even carried out the sick into the streets and put them[c] on cots and mats[d] so that when[e] Peter came by, at least his[f] shadow would fall on some of them. 16 And the people of the towns around Jerusalem also came together, bringing the sick and those tormented by unclean spirits, who were all being healed.
