9 If we this day are examined concerning the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made sound.
10 Be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of JesusChrist of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom Godraised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you sound.
11 This is the stone which was set at naught by you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved.
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
14 And beholding the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 But when they had commanded them to withdraw from the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
17 But that it may spread no further among the people, let us strictly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all, nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye.
20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorifiedGod for that which was done.
22 For the man was above forty years old on whom this miracle of healing was performed.
24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, who hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that is in them;
31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart, and of one soul: neither said any of them that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
34 Neither was there any among them that was in want: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made to every man according as he had need.
