14and seeing the man standing with them who hath been healed, they had nothing to say against [it],
15and having commanded them to go away out of the sanhedrim, they took counsel with one another,
16saying, `What shall we do to these men? because that, indeed, a notable sign hath been done through them, to all those dwelling in Jerusalem [is] manifest, and we are not able to deny [it];
17but that it may spread no further toward the people, let us strictly threaten them no more to speak in this name to any man.`
18And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the name of Jesus,
19and Peter and John answering unto them said, `Whether it is righteous before God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye;
20for we cannot but speak what we did see and hear.`
