Acts:5:21-28

*
And when they heard that ,
they entered into the temple early in the morning ,
and taught .
But the high priest came ,
and they that were with him ,
and called the council together ,
and all the senate of the children of Israel ,
and sent to the prison to have them brought .
*
But when the officers came ,
and found them not in the prison ,
they returned ,
and told ,
*
Saying ,
The prison truly found we shut with all safety ,
and the keepers standing without before the doors :
but when we had opened ,
we found no man within .
*
Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things ,
they doubted of them whereunto this would grow .
*
Then came one and told them ,
saying ,
Behold ,
the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple ,
and teaching the people .
*
Then went the captain with the officers ,
and brought them without violence :
for they feared the people ,
lest they should have been stoned .
*
And when they had brought them ,
they set them before the council :
and the high priest asked them ,
*
Saying ,
Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name ?
and ,
behold ,
ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine ,
and intend to bring this man '
s blood upon us .
