Deeds (Act) of Apostles 5:25-34

²⁵But a man came, and told to them, For lo! those men which ye have put into prison, be in the temple, and stand, and teach the people.

²⁶Then the magistrate went with the ministers, and brought them with-out violence; for they dreaded the people, lest they should be stoned.

²⁷And when they had brought them, they set them in the council; and the prince of priests asked them,

²⁸and said, In commandment we commanded you, that ye should not teach in this name, and lo! ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and ye will bring on us the blood of this man.

²⁹And Peter answered, and the apostles, and said, It behooveth to obey to God, more than to men.

³⁰The God of our fathers raised Jesus, whom ye slew, hanging in a tree.

³¹God enhanced with his right hand this prince and Saviour, that penance were given to Israel or for to give penance to Israel, and remission of sins.

³²And we be witnesses of these words, and the Holy Ghost, whom God gave to all obeying to him.

³³When they heard these things, they were tormented, and thought to slay them.

³⁴But a man rose in the council, a Pharisee, Gamaliel by name, a doctor of the law, a worshipful man to all the people, and commanded the men to be put withoutforth for a while.
