4:1 | And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, |
4:2 | Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through ![]() |
4:3 | And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in hold unto the next ![]() |
4:4 | Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand. |
4:5 | And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, |
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 ![]() |
4:7 | And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what ![]() |
4:8 | Then ![]() ![]() |

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. |

4:19 | But ![]() |
4:20 | For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. |
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. |
4:22 | For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was showed. |
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. |
4:24 | And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou ![]() ![]() |
4:25 | Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? |
4:26 | The ![]() ![]() |

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. |
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. |
