[1] And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, [2] Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead. [3] And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for now eventide. [4] Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was five thousand. [5] And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, [6] And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as of the kindred of the high priest, [7] And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, done [8] Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders [9] If this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; [10] known all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by this man stand here before whole. [11] This the stone which was set at nought of builders, which is become the head of the corner. [12] Neither salvation in any other: for other name under heaven given among men, whereby must be saved. [13] Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that with Jesus. [14] beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could nothing [15] But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves, [16] Saying, What shall we do 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 [17] But it spread further among the people, threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in name. [18] And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. [19] But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether right in the sight of God to hearken more than unto God, judge ye. [20] For cannot but speak the things which and heard. [21] So when they had further threatened them, them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.
