38 So now I tell you, Keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this thought and this work is of men, it will fail and pass away. 39 But if it be of God, you cannot suppress it, lest perchance you find yourself standing in opposition to God. 40 And they listened to him, and they called the apostles, and scourged them, and commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 41 The apostles went out from the presence of the council rejoicing that they had been worthy to suffer abuse for the sake of his name. 42 And they did not cease to teach daily in the temple and at home and to preach concerning our LORD Jesus Christ.
