Acts 5:19-29

19But duringG1223 the nightG3571 1an angelG32 of the LordG2962 openedG455 the gatesG2374 of the prisonG5438, and leadingG1806 them outG1806, he saidG3004, 20“GoG4198, standG2476 and 2speakG2980 to the peopleG2992 in the templeG2413 area 34the wholeG3956 messageG4487 of thisG3778 LifeG2222.” 21Upon hearingG191 this, they enteredG1525 into the templeG2413 area 5aboutG5259 daybreakG3722 and began to teachG1321.

NowG1161 when 6the highG749 priestG749 and his associatesG4862 cameG1525, they calledG4779 7the 8CouncilG4892 togetherG4779, that is, allG3956 the SenateG1087 of the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474, and sentG649 orders to the prisonG1201 for them to be broughtG71. 22But 9the officersG5257 who cameG3854 did not findG2147 them in the prisonG5438; and they returnedG390 and reportedG518, 23sayingG3004, “We foundG2147 the prisonG1201 lockedG2808 quiteG3956 securelyG803 and the guardsG5441 standingG2476 at the doorsG2374; but when we openedG455 them, we foundG2147 noG3762 oneG3762 insideG2080.” 24NowG1161 whenG5613 10the captainG4755 of the templeG2413 guard and the chiefG749 priestsG749 heardG191 theseG3778 wordsG3056, they were greatlyG1280 perplexedG1280 aboutG4012 them as to whatG5101 11would comeG1096 of thisG3778. 25But someoneG5100 cameG3854 and reportedG518 to them, “The menG435 whomG3739 you putG5087 in prisonG5438 are standingG2476 in the templeG2413 area and teachingG1321 the peopleG2992!” 26ThenG5119 12the captainG4755 wentG565 alongG565 with 13the officersG5257 and proceeded to bringG71 them back withoutG3756G3326 violenceG970 (for 14they wereG5399 afraidG5399 of the peopleG2992, that they might be stonedG3034).

27When they had broughtG71 them, they had them standG2476 15beforeG1722 16the CouncilG4892. The highG749 priestG749 interrogatedG1905 them, 28sayingG3004, “We gaveG3853 you 17strictG3852 ordersG3852 not to continue teachingG1321 in thisG3778 nameG3686, and 18yetG2400, you have filledG4137 JerusalemG2419 with your teachingG1322 and 19intendG1014 to bringG1863 thisG3778 Man’sG444 bloodG129 upon us.” 29But PeterG4074 and the apostlesG652 answeredG611, “20We mustG1163 obeyG3980 GodG2316 ratherG3123 thanG2228 menG444.
