Acts 4:25-30

25you spoke long ago by the Holy Spirit through our ancestor David, your servant, saying, ‘Why were the nations so angry? Why did they waste their time with futile plans?

26The kings of the earth prepared for battle; the rulers gathered together against the Lord and against his Messiah.’

27“In fact, this has happened here in this very city! For Herod Antipas, Pontius Pilate the governor, the Gentiles, and the people of Israel were all united against Jesus, your holy servant, whom you anointed.

28But everything they did was determined beforehand according to your will.

29And now, O Lord, hear their threats, and give us, your servants, great boldness in preaching your word.

30Stretch out your hand with healing power; may miraculous signs and wonders be done through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”
