23 After they had been set at liberty, the Apostles went to their friends and told them what the Chief Priests and the Councillors had said to them.
24 All who heard their story, moved by a common impulse, raised their voices to God in prayer: "O Sovereign Lord, it is you who has 'made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and everything that is in them,'
25 And who, by the lips of our ancestor, your servant David, who spoke under the influence of the Holy Spirit, have said-- 'Why did the nations rage, and the peoples form vain designs?
26 The kings of the earth set their array, and its rulers gathered together, against the Lord and against his Christ.'
27 There have indeed gathered together in this city against your holy Servant Jesus, whom you has consecrated the Christ, not Herod and Pontius Pilate only, but the nations and the people of Israel besides--
28 Yet only to do what thou, by thy power and of thy own will, didst long ago destine to be done.
29 Now, therefore, O Lord, mark their threats, and enable thy servants, with all fearlessness, to tell thy Message,
30 While thou stretchest out thy hand to heal, and causest signs and wonders to take place through the Name of thy holy Servant Jesus."
