Acts 4:1-12 ▼

1 And as they spake vnto ye people, the priestes & the ruler of the temple, and the saducees, came vpon them,

2 Takyng it greuously that they taught the people, and preached in Iesus the resurrection from the dead.

3 And they layde handes on them, and put them in holde, vntyll the next day: for it was nowe euentyde.

4 Howbeit, many of them which hearde the worde, beleued: and the number of the men was about fyue thousande.

5 And it came to passe on the morowe, that their rulers, and elders, & scribes,

6 And Annas the chiefe priest, and Caiaphas, and Iohn, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kynrede of the hye priestes, were gathered together at Hierusalem.

7 And when they had set them before them, they asked: by what power, or in what name haue ye done this?

8 Then Peter, full of the holy ghost, sayde vnto them: Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

9 If we this day be examined of the good deede done to the sicke man, by what meanes he is made whole:

10 Be it knowen vnto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Iesus Christe of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raysed agayne from the dead: euen by hym doth this man stande here before you whole.

11 This is the stone which was cast asyde of you buylders, which is the head of the corner:

12 Neither is there saluation in any other. For among men vnder heauen, there is geuen none other name, wherin we must be saued.
