Acts 4:19-23

19But Peter and John replied, “Whether it is right before God to obey you rather than God, you decide,

20for it is impossible for us not to speak about what we have seen and heard.”

21After threatening them further, they released them, for they could not find how to punish them on account of the people, because they were all praising God for what had happened.

22For the man, on whom this miraculous sign of healing had been performed, was over forty years old.

23When they were released, Peter and John went to their fellow believers and reported everything the high priests and the elders had said to them.
