Curación de un cojo
3 Un día, Pedro y Juan subían juntos al templo. Eran las tres de la tarde, es decir, el momento de la oración, 2 y vieron allí a un hombre cojo de nacimiento. Todos los días era puesto a la entrada del templo, en la puerta llamada «la Hermosa», para pedirles limosna a los que entraban en el templo. 3 Cuando el cojo vio que Pedro y Juan estaban por entrar, les rogó que le dieran limosna. 4 Entonces Pedro, que estaba con Juan, fijó la mirada en el cojo y le dijo: «¡Míranos!» 5 El cojo se les quedó mirando, porque esperaba que ellos le dieran algo, 6 pero Pedro le dijo: «No tengo oro ni plata, pero de lo que tengo te doy. En el nombre de Jesucristo de Nazaret, ¡levántate y anda!» 7 Y tomándolo de la mano derecha, lo levantó, ¡y al momento se le afirmaron los pies y los tobillos! 8 El cojo se puso en pie de un salto, y se echó a andar; luego entró con ellos en el templo, mientras saltaba y alababa a Dios. 9 Todo el pueblo lo vio andar y alabar a Dios, 10 y lo reconocían como el cojo que se sentaba a pedir limosna a la entrada del templo, en la puerta «la Hermosa», y se quedaban admirados y asombrados por lo que le había sucedido al cojo.
Discurso de Pedro en el pórtico de Salomón
11 Mientras el cojo que había sido sanado no soltaba a Pedro ni a Juan, todo el pueblo fue al pórtico llamado «de Salomón», y sin salir de su asombro se acercó a ellos. 12 Cuando Pedro los vio, les dijo: «Varones israelitas, ¿qué es lo que les asombra? ¿Por qué nos ven como si por nuestro poder o piedad hubiéramos hecho que este hombre camine? 13 El Dios de Abrahán, de Isaac y de Jacob, que es el Dios de nuestros antepasados, ha glorificado a su Hijo Jesús, a quien ustedes entregaron y negaron delante de Pilato, cuando éste ya había resuelto ponerlo en libertad. 14 Pero ustedes negaron al Santo y Justo, y pidieron que se les entregara un homicida.(A) 15 Fue así como mataron al Autor de la vida, a quien Dios resucitó de los muertos. De eso nosotros somos testigos, 16 y por la fe en su nombre, a este hombre que ustedes ven y conocen, Dios lo ha restablecido; por la fe en Jesús, Dios lo ha sanado completamente en presencia de ustedes.
17 »Hermanos, yo sé que tanto ustedes como sus gobernantes lo negaron por ignorancia, 18 pero Dios cumplió de esta manera lo que ya había anunciado por medio de todos sus profetas, es decir, que su Cristo tenía que padecer. 19 Por lo tanto, arrepiéntanse y vuélvanse a Dios, para que sus pecados les sean perdonados 20 y Dios haga venir sobre ustedes tiempos de alivio y les envíe a Cristo Jesús, que ya les fue anunciado. 21 Es necesario que el cielo reciba a Jesús hasta el momento en que todas las cosas sean restauradas, lo cual Dios ya ha anunciado desde los tiempo antiguos por medio de sus santos profetas. 22 Porque Moisés dijo: “El Señor su Dios les levantará un profeta de entre sus hermanos, como me levantó a mí. Ustedes deben atender a todo lo que él les diga.(B) 23 Todo aquel que no escuche a ese profeta, será eliminado del pueblo.”(C) 24 Porque todos los profetas, a partir de Samuel, han hablado de estos días y los han anunciado. 25 Ustedes son los descendientes de los profetas; son herederos del pacto que Dios hizo con nuestros antepasados, cuando le prometió a Abrahán: “En tu simiente serán bendecidas todas las naciones de la tierra.”(D) 26 Cuando Dios resucitó a su Hijo, en primer lugar lo envió a ustedes para bendecirlos, y para que cada uno de ustedes se convierta de su maldad.»
Acts 3
21st Century King James Version
3 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple, which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered into the temple.
3 He, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for alms.
4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, “Look on us.”
5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Then Peter said, “Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have, I give thee: in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”
7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.
8 And leaping up, he stood and walked and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God.
9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God,
10 and they knew that it was he that 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 who had been healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch, which is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.
12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, “Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? Or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man walk?
13 The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified His Son Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied Him in the presence of Pilate when he was determined to let Him go.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you,
15 and killed the Prince of Life whom God hath raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.
16 And His name, through faith in His name, hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know. Yea, the faith which is by Him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 “And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18 But those things which God before had shown by the mouth of all His prophets, that Christ should suffer, He hath thus fulfilled.
19 Repent ye therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
20 Then He shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached unto you,
21 whom Heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began.
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, ‘A Prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you from your brethren, like unto me; Him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever He shall say unto you.
23 And it shall come to pass that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be destroyed from among the people.’
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, ‘And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.’
26 Unto you first, God, having raised up His Son Jesus, sent Him to bless you in turning every one of you away from his iniquities.”
Acts 3
New International Version
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.”
