Acts 5:23–32

23 Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within. 24 Now when the llhigh priest and the mcaptain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they ndoubted of them whereunto this would grow. 25 Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing fin the temple, and teaching the people. 26 Then went the mcaptain with the lofficers, and brought them without violence: ofor they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned. 27 And when they had brought them, they set them before ithe council: and the high priest asked them, 28 Saying, pDid not we qstraitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and rintend to bring this man’s sblood upon us. 29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, tWe ought to obey God rather than men. 30 uThe God of our fathers xraised up Jesus, ywhom ye slew and zhanged on a tree. 31 Him hath God exalted awith his right hand to be ba Prince and ca Saviour, for to give drepentance to Israel, and deforgiveness of sins. 32 And fwe are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, gwhom God hath given to them that obey him.
