Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ They hearing it unitedly lifted up their prayer to God and said, "O Lord, thou who didst make the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things that are in them, ²⁵ who through the Holy Spirit by the mouth of our father David, thy servant, didst say, 'Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine vain things? ²⁶ The kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers are gathered together against the Lord and against his Christ' — ²⁷ for truly in this city Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered against thy holy servant Jesus, ²⁸ to do all that thy hands and thy will had predetermined should take place — ²⁹ now, Lord, look upon their threats and enable thy servants to speak thy message with all fearlessness, ³⁰ while thou dost stretch out thine hand for healing and while signs and wonders are done through the name of thy holy servant Jesus." ³¹ After this prayer the place in which they were assembled was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the message of God with courageous freedom.
