4:1	But while they were speaking to the people, the priests and the magistrate of the temple and the Sadducees overwhelmed them,
4:2	being grieved that they were teaching the people and announcing in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
4:3	And they laid hands on them, and they placed them under guard until the next day. For it was now evening.
4:4	But many of those who had heard the word believed. And the number of men became five thousand.
4:5	And it happened on the next day that their leaders and elders and scribes gathered together in Jerusalem,
4:6	including Annas, the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John and Alexander, and as many as were of the priestly family.
4:7	And stationing them in the middle, they questioned them: “By what power, or in whose name, have you done this?”
4:8	Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Leaders of the people and elders, listen.
4:9	If we today are judged by a good deed done to an infirm man, by which he has been made whole,
4:10	let it be known to all of you and to all of the people of Israel, that in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God has raised from the dead, by him, this man stands before you, healthy.
4:11	He is the stone, which was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.
4:12	And there is no salvation in any other. For there is no other name under heaven given to men, by which it is necessary for us to be saved.”
