*
And when they heard it ,
they lifted their voices together to God and said , "
Sovereign Lord ,
who didst make the heaven and the earth and the sea and everything in them ,
*
who by the mouth of our father David ,
thy servant ,
didst say by the Holy Spirit , `
Why did the Gentiles rage ,
and the peoples imagine vain things ?
*
The kings of the earth set themselves in array ,
and the rulers were gathered together ,
against the Lord and against his Anointed '--
*
for truly in this city there were gathered together against thy holy servant Jesus ,
whom thou didst anoint ,
both Herod and Pontius Pilate ,
with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel ,
*
to do whatever thy hand and thy plan had predestined to take place .
*
And now ,
Lord ,
look upon their threats ,
and grant to thy servants to speak thy word with all boldness ,
*
while thou stretchest out thy hand to heal ,
and signs and wonders are performed through the name of thy holy servant Jesus ."
*
And when they had prayed ,
the place in which they were gathered together was shaken ;
and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God with boldness .
