38 And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work is from men, it will come to naught:
39 But if it is from God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
40 And to him they assented: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten [them], they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
