AC-4:1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the

captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,

AC-4:2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached

through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

AC-4:3 And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in hold unto
the

next day: for it was now eventide.

AC-4:4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and
the

number of the men was about five thousand.

AC-4:5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and

elders, and scribes,

AC-4:6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and

Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest,

were gathered together at Jerusalem.

AC-4:7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By
what

power, or by what name, have ye done this?

AC-4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them,
Ye

rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

AC-4:9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the

impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

AC-4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of
Israel,

that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified,

whom God raised from the dead, [even] by him doth this man stand

here before you whole.

AC-4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you
builders,

which is become the head of the corner.

AC-4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is
none

other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be
saved.

AC-4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and

perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they
marvelled;

and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

AC-4:14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with
them,

they could say nothing against it.

AC-4:15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the

council, they conferred among themselves,

AC-4:16 Saying, What shall we do to these 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 [it].

AC-4:17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us

straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in
this

name.

AC-4:18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at

all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

AC-4:19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether
it

be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto
God,

judge ye.

AC-4:20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen
and

heard.

AC-4:21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them
go,

finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the
people:

for all [men] glorified God for that which was done.

AC-4:22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this
miracle

of healing was showed.

AC-4:23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and

reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto
them.

AC-4:24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to
God

with one accord, and said, Lord, thou [art] God, which hast made

heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

AC-4:25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did

the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

AC-4:26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were

gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

AC-4:27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou
hast

anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and
the

people of Israel, were gathered together,

AC-4:28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined

before to be done.

AC-4:29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto

thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,

AC-4:30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs
and

wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

AC-4:31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where
they

were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy

Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

AC-4:32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one
heart

and of one soul: neither said any [of them] that ought of the
things

which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

AC-4:33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the

resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them
all.

AC-4:34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as
many

as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the

prices of the things that were sold,

AC-4:35 And laid [them] down at the apostles' feet: and

distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

AC-4:36 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas,

(which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite,

[and] of the country of Cyprus,

AC-4:37 Having land, sold [it], and brought the money, and laid

[it] at the apostles' feet.
