Acts 4:16–20 · Berean Standard Bible

16 “What shall we do with these men?” they asked. “It is clear to everyone living in Jerusalem that a remarkable miracle has occurred through them, and we cannot deny it.

17 But to keep this message from spreading any further among the people, we must warn them not to speak to anyone in this name.”

19 But Peter and John replied, “Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God’s sight to listen to you rather than God.

20 For we cannot stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
