1 Peter goeth into the Temple with John,  2 healeth the cripple. 9 To the people gathered together to see the miracle, 12 he expoundeth the mystery of our salvation through Christ, 14 accusing their ingratitude, 19 and requiring the repentance.

Now [a]Peter and John went up together into the Temple, at the ninth hour of prayer.

And a certain man which was a cripple from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the Temple called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the Temple,

Who seeing Peter and John, that they would enter into the Temple, desiring to receive an alms.

And Peter earnestly beholding him with John, said, Look on us.

And he [b]gave heed unto them, trusting to receive some thing of them.

Then said Peter, Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have, that 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 leaped up, stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping, and praising God.
