So he attentively regarded them, expecting to receive something from them. Then said Peter, I have neither silver nor gold; but what I have, that I give thee: By the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarean, arise, and walk! And taking him by the right hand, he raised him up: and immediately his feet and ancles were restored to strength. And springing up he stood on his feet, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God. And all the people beheld him walking and praising God: and they took notice of him, that it was the same person who had sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with astonishment and amazed at what had happened to him. But as the lame man that was cured held fast Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them into the portico called Solomon's, in vast amazement.
