The Acts

²⁶Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them, but without violence; for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned. ²⁷And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest asked them, ²⁸saying, We straitly charged you not to teach in this name: and behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us. ²⁹But Peter and the apostles answered and said, We must obey God rather than men. ³⁰The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew, hanging him on a tree. ³¹Him did God exalt with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins. ³²And we are witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
