Acts 4:6-21

[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.
