Acts 4:2-23

2Being grievedG1278 thatG1223 theyG846 taughtG1321 the peopleG3588G2992, andG2532 preachedG2605 throughG1722 JesusG3588G2424 the resurrectionG3588G386 fromG1537 the deadG3498. 3AndG2532 they laidG1911 handsG3588G5495 on themG846, andG2532 putG5087 them inG1519 holdG5084 untoG1519 the next dayG839: forG1063 it wasG1510 nowG2235 eventideG2073. 4HowbeitG1161 manyG4183 of them which heardG191 the wordG3588G3056 believedG4100; andG2532 the numberG3588G706 of the menG3588G435 wasG1096 aboutG5616 fiveG4002 thousandG5505. 5

AndG1161 it came to passG1096 onG1909 the morrowG839, thatG4863 theirG846 rulersG3588G758, andG2532 eldersG4245, andG2532 scribesG1122, 6AndG2532 AnnasG452 the high priestG3588G749, andG2532 CaiaphasG2533, andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 AlexanderG223, andG2532 as many asG3745 wereG1510 ofG1537 the kindredG1085 of the high priestG748, were gathered together atG1519 JerusalemG2419. 7AndG2532 whenG2476 theyG846 had setG2476 them inG1722 the midstG3319, they askedG4441, ByG1722 whatG4169 powerG1411, orG2228 byG1722 whatG4169 nameG3686, haveG4160 yeG4771 doneG4160 thisG3778? 8ThenG5119 PeterG4074, filledG4130 with theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151, saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, Ye rulersG758 of the peopleG3588G2992, andG2532 eldersG4245 of IsraelG2474, 9IfG1487 weG1473 this dayG4594 be examinedG350 ofG1909 the good deed doneG2108 toG444 the impotentG772 manG444, byG1722 what meansG5101 heG3778 is made wholeG4982; 10Be itG1510 knownG1110 unto youG4771 allG3956, andG2532 to allG3956 the peopleG3588G2992 of IsraelG2474, thatG3754 byG1722 the nameG3588G3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 of NazarethG3588G3480, whomG3739 yeG4771 crucifiedG4717, whomG3739 GodG3588G2316 raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, even byG1722 him dothG3936 thisG3778 manG3778 stand hereG3936 beforeG1799 youG4771 wholeG5199. 11ThisG3778 isG1510 the stoneG3588G3037 whichG3588 was set at noughtG1848 ofG5259 youG4771 buildersG3618, whichG3588 is becomeG1096 the headG2776 of the cornerG1137. 12NeitherG2532G3756 is thereG1510 salvationG3588G4991 inG1722 anyG3762 otherG243: forG1063 there isG1510 noneG3777 otherG2087 nameG3686 underG5259 heavenG3588G3772 givenG3588G1325 amongG1722 menG444, wherebyG1722G3739 weG1473 mustG1163 be savedG4982. 13

NowG1161 when they sawG2334 the boldnessG3954 of PeterG3588G4074 andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 perceivedG2638 thatG3754 they wereG1510 unlearnedG62 andG2532 ignorantG2399 menG444, they marvelledG2296; andG5037 they took knowledgeG1921 of themG846, thatG3754 they had beenG1510 withG4862 JesusG3588G2424. 14AndG1161 beholdingG991 the manG444 whichG3588 was healedG2323 standingG2476 withG4862 themG846, they couldG2192 sayG483 nothingG3762 against itG483. 15ButG1161 when they had commandedG2753 themG846 to go asideG565 out ofG1854 the councilG3588G4892, they conferredG4820 amongG4314 themselvesG240, 16SayingG3004, WhatG5101 shall we doG4160 toG3588G444 theseG3778 menG3588G444? forG1063 thatG3754 indeedG3303 a notableG1110 miracleG4592 hath been doneG1096 byG1223 themG846 is manifestG5318 to allG3956 themG2730 thatG3588 dwellG2730 in JerusalemG2419; andG2532 we cannotG3756G1410 denyG720 it. 17ButG235 thatG2443 it spreadG1268 noG3361 furtherG4119 amongG1519 the peopleG3588G2992, let usG546 straitlyG547 threatenG546 themG846, that they speakG2980 henceforthG3371 to noG3367 manG444 inG1909 thisG3778 nameG3588G3686. 18AndG2532 they calledG2564 themG846, andG2532 commandedG3853 themG846 notG3361 to speakG5350 at allG2527 norG3366 teachG1321 inG1909 the nameG3588G3686 of JesusG3588G2424. 19ButG1161 PeterG4074 andG2532 JohnG2491 answeredG611 and saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, WhetherG1487 it beG1510 rightG1342 in the sight ofG1799 GodG3588G2316 to hearkenG191 unto youG4771 moreG3123 thanG2228 unto GodG3588G2316, judge yeG2919. 20ForG1063 weG1473 cannotG3756G1410 butG3361 speakG2980 the things whichG3739 we have seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191. 21SoG1161 when they had further threatenedG4324 themG846, they let them goG630, findingG2147 nothingG3367 howG4459 they might punishG2849 themG846, because ofG3754 the peopleG3588G2992: forG1223 allG3956 men glorifiedG1392 GodG3588G2316 forG1909 thatG3588 which was doneG1096. 22ForG1063 the manG3588G444 wasG1510 aboveG4119 fortyG5062 years oldG2094, onG1909 whomG3739 thisG3778 miracleG3588G4592 of healingG3588G2392 was shewedG1096. 23

AndG1161 being let goG630, they wentG2064 toG4314 their own companyG2398, andG2532 reportedG518 all thatG3745 the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 eldersG4245 had saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846.
