Acts 5:12-26

121At the handsG5495 of the apostlesG652 manyG4183 2signsG4592 and wondersG5059 were takingG1096 placeG1096 amongG1722 the peopleG2992; and they were allG3956 with oneG3661 accordG3661 in 3Solomon’sG4672 porticoG4745. 13But noneG3762 of the restG3062 daredG5111 to associateG2853 with them; howeverG235, 4the peopleG2992 heldG3170 them in highG3170 esteemG3170. 14And allG3123 the moreG3123 5believersG4100 in the LordG2962, multitudesG4128 of menG435 and womenG1135, were constantly 6addedG4369 to their number, 15to suchG5620 an extentG5620 that they evenG2532 carriedG1627 the sickG772 out into the streetsG4116 and laidG5087 them on cotsG2825 and palletsG2895, soG2443 that when PeterG4074 cameG2064 by 7at leastG2579 his shadowG4639 might fallG1982 on anyG5100 oneG5100 of them. 16AlsoG2532 the 8peopleG4128 from the citiesG4172 in the vicinityG4038 of JerusalemG2419 were comingG4905 togetherG4905, bringingG5342 people who were sickG772 9orG2532 afflictedG3791 with uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, and they were allG537 being healedG2323.

17But the highG749 priestG749 roseG450 up, alongG2532 with allG3956 his associatesG4862 (that is 10the sectG139 of 11the SadduceesG4523), and they were filledG4092 with jealousyG2205. 18They laidG1911 handsG5495 on the apostlesG652 and 12putG5087 them in a publicG1219 jailG5084. 19But duringG1223 the nightG3571 13an angelG32 of the LordG2962 openedG455 the gatesG2374 of the prisonG5438, and takingG1806 them out he saidG3004, 20“GoG4198, standG2476 and 14speakG2980 to the peopleG2992 in the templeG2413 1516the wholeG3956 messageG4487 of thisG3778 LifeG2222.” 21Upon hearingG191 this, they enteredG1525 into the templeG2413 17aboutG5259 daybreakG3722 and began to teachG1321.

NowG1161 when 18the highG749 priestG749 and his associatesG4862 cameG1525, they calledG4779 19the 20CouncilG4892 togetherG4779, evenG2532 allG3956 the SenateG1087 of the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2274, and sentG649 orders to the prisonG1201 houseG1201 for them to be broughtG71. 22But 21the officersG5257 who cameG3854 did not findG2147 them in the prisonG5438; and they returnedG390 and reportedG518 back, 23sayingG3004, “We foundG2147 the prisonG1201 houseG1201 lockedG2808 quiteG3956 securelyG803 and the guardsG5441 standingG2476 at the doorsG2374; but when we had openedG455 up, we foundG2147 noG3762 oneG3762 insideG2080.” 24NowG1161 whenG5613 22the captainG4755 of the templeG2413 guard and the chiefG749 priestsG749 heardG191 theseG3778 wordsG3056, they were greatlyG1280 perplexedG1280 aboutG4012 them as to whatG5101 23would comeG1096 of thisG3778. 25But someoneG5100 cameG3854 and reportedG518 to them, “The menG435 whomG3739 you putG5087 in prisonG5438 are standingG2476 in the templeG2413 and teachingG1321 the peopleG2992!” 26ThenG5119 24the captainG4755 wentG565 alongG565 with 25the officersG5257 and proceeded to bringG71 them back withoutG3756G3326 violenceG970 (for 26they were afraidG5399 of the peopleG2992, that they might be stonedG3034).
