But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,

However, so this does not spread any further among the people, let’s threaten them against speaking to anyone in this name again.”

But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it’s right in the sight of God for us to listen to you rather than to God, you decide;

For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

After an interval of about three hours, his wife came in, but she did not know what had happened.
