Acts 5:22-32 - The Apostles On Trial Again

22 And, the officers who came to the place, found them not in the prison; and, returning, brought tidings, 23 Saying - The prison, found we locked with all safety, and the keepers standing at the doors; but, when we had opened the prison, inside, found we, no one. 24 Now, when both the captain of the temple and the High-priests heard these words, they were utterly at a loss concerning them - what perhaps this might come to.

25 But some one, entering, brought tidings unto them - Lo! the men whom ye put in the prison, are in the temple, standing, and teaching the people! 26 Then, the captain with the officers, departing, brought them - not with violence, - for they were afraid of the people, lest they should be stoned; 27 But, leading them in, set them in the high- council. And the High-priest questioned them, 28 Saying - Strictly, did we charge you not to be teaching upon this name; and lo! ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and are minded to bring down upon us, the blood of this man.

29 But Peter and the Apostles, answering, said - It is needful to be yielding obedience unto God rather than unto men: - 30 The God of our fathers, hath raised up Jesus, - whom, ye, got into your hands, suspending him upon a tree: - 31 Him, as Princely-leader and Saviour, hath God exalted unto his right hand, - to give repentance unto Israel, and remission of sins. 32 And, we, are witnesses of these things, - also the Holy Spirit, which God hath given unto them who are yielding obedience unto him.
