Acts:4:15-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council ,
they conferred among themselves ,
*
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 .
*
But that it spread no further among the people ,
let us straitly threaten them ,
that they speak henceforth to no man in this name .
*
And they called them ,
and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus .
*
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 .
*
For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard .
*
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 .
