AC-4:1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the
captain of the
temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,
AC-4:2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached
through Jesus
the resurrection from the dead.
AC-4:3 And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in hold unto
the next day:
for it was now eventide.
AC-4:4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and
the number of
the men was about five thousand.
AC-4:5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers,
and elders, and
scribes,
AC-4:6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and
Alexander, and
as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered
together at
Jerusalem.
AC-4:7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By
what power, or
by what name, have ye done this?
AC-4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them,
Ye rulers of
the people, and elders of Israel,
AC-4:9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the
impotent man,
by what means he is made whole;
AC-4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of
Israel, that by the
name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God
raised from the
dead, [even] by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
AC-4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you
builders, which is
become the head of the corner.
AC-4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is
none other name
under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
AC-4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and
perceived that
they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they
took knowledge
of them, that they had been with Jesus.
AC-4:14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with
them, they could
say nothing against it.
AC-4:15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the
council, they
conferred among themselves,
AC-4:16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed
a notable
miracle hath been done by them [is] manifest to all them that
dwell in
Jerusalem; and we cannot deny [it].
AC-4:17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us
straitly
threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
AC-4:18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak
at all nor teach
in the name of Jesus.
AC-4:19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether
it be right in
the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge
ye.
AC-4:20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen
and heard.
AC-4:21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them
go, finding
nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for
all [men]
glorified God for that which was done.
AC-4:22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this
miracle of healing
was showed.
