Acts 5:12-26
12And by the handsG5495 of the apostlesG652 wereG1510 manyG4183 signsG4592 and wondersG5059 done among the peopleG2992; (and they wereG1510 all with oneG3661 accordG3661 in Solomon's porch,
13but of the restG3062 durst no man joinG2853 them, but the peopleG2992 magnifiedG3170 them;
14and believers were moreG3123 than ever addedG4369 to the LordG2962, multitudesG4128 both of menG435 and womenG1135;)
15soG2443 that they brought out the sickG772 into the streets and putG5087 [them] on beds and couches, that at least the shadowG4639 of PeterG4074, when he cameG2064, might overshadowG1982 some oneG5100 of them.
16And the multitudeG4128 alsoG2532 of the citiesG4172 round about cameG4905 togetherG4905 to JerusalemG2419, bringingG5342 sickG772 persons and persons beset by uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, who were all healedG2323.
17And the highG749 priestG749 risingG450 up, and all they that wereG1510 with him, which isG1510 the sectG139 of the SadduceesG4523, wereG1510 filledG4130 with wrath,
18and laidG5087 handsG5495 on the apostlesG652 and putG5087 them in the public prison.
19But an angelG32 of [the] LordG2962 during the nightG3571 openedG455 the doorsG2374 of the prisonG5438, and leading them out, saidG3004,
20GoG4198 ye and standG2476 and speakG2980 in the temple to the peopleG2992 all the words of this lifeG2222.
21And when they heardG191 it, they enteredG1525 very early into the temple and taughtG1321. And when the highG749 priestG749 was comeG1525, and they that were with him, they calledG4779 togetherG4779 the councilG4892 and all the elderhood of the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474, and sentG649 to the prisonG1201 to have them broughtG71.
22And when the officersG5257 were comeG3854, they did not findG2147 them in the prisonG5438; and returned and reportedG518
23sayingG3004, We foundG2147 the prisonG1201 shutG2808 with all securityG803, and the keepers standingG2476 at the doorsG2374; but when we had openedG455 [them], within we foundG2147 no oneG3762.
24And whenG5613 they heardG191 these wordsG3056, both the priestG749 and the captainG4755 of the temple and the chiefG749 priestsG749 were in perplexity as to them, what this would comeG1096 to.
25And some oneG5100 comingG3854 reportedG518 to them, Lo, the menG435 whom ye putG5087 in the prisonG5438 areG1510 in the temple, standingG2476 and teachingG1321 the peopleG2992.
26ThenG5119 the captainG4755, having goneG565 with the officersG5257, broughtG71 them, not with violenceG970, for they fearedG5399 the peopleG2992, lestG3361 they should be stonedG3034.
