carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the
temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from
those who entered the temple 申初祷告的时候，
彼得、约翰上圣殿去。 2 有一个人，生来是瘸腿
的，天天被人抬来，放在殿的一个门口——那门
名叫美门——要求进殿的人周济。
Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have,
but what I do have I give you: 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 So he, leaping up, stood and
walked and entered the temple with them—
walking, leaping, and praising God. 6 彼得说：
“金银我都没有，只把我所有的给你：我奉拿
撒勒人耶稣基督的名，叫你起来行走！” 7 于
是拉着他的右手，扶他起来。他的脚和踝子骨
立刻健壮了， 8 就跳起来站着，又行走，同他
们进了殿，走着跳着，赞美神。

口说：‘外邦为什么争闹？万民为什么谋算虚妄的事？
