Acts 4:23-31 - The Believers Pray For Continued Bold Witness
23 And being released they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them. 24 And on hearing it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art he that made heaven and earth and sea, and all things that are in them; 25 who by the mouth of thy servant David said, "Why did the heathen rage, and the peoples meditate vain things? 26 The kings of the earth came up, and the rulers assembled together, against the Lord, and against his Anointed."
27 For in truth against thy holy servant Jesus, whom thou didst anoint, did both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the gentiles, and the peoples of Israel, assemble in this city, 28 to do whatever thy hand and thy will before determined to be done. 29 And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings, and grant to thy servants that with all boldness they may speak thy word, 30 while thou stretchest forth thy hand to heal, and signs and wonders are wrought through the name of thy holy servant Jesus. 31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
