Acts 5:24-26

24Now when the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were greatly perplexed about them, wondering what this would come to.

25And someone came and told them, "Look! The men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people."

26Then the captain with the officers went and brought them, but not by force, for they were afraid of being stoned by the people.
