Acts 4:11-21

NSB(i) 11 »This is the stone that was rejected by you builders. It became the chief corner stone. 12 »There is no salvation in anyone else. For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.« 13 They observed the confidence of Peter and John. Yet they thought they were uneducated (not formally educated) and ordinary men. They were amazed and recognized them as having been with Jesus. 14 Seeing the man who was healed standing with them, they had nothing to say in reply. 15 They ordered them to leave the council. Then they conferred among themselves. 16 They said: »What shall we do to these men? The fact that a notable miracle has been done by them is evident to all who live in Jerusalem. And we cannot deny it. 17 »We must warn these men not to speak about it in order to stop this from spreading further among the people.« 18 They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. 19 Peter and John answered: »You judge whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God. 20 »We cannot stop speaking the things we have seen and heard.« 21 When they further threatened them, they let them go. They found no basis for punishment because of the people for all men glorified God for that which was done.
