25 Then someone came and said, “Look! The men you put in jail are standing in the temple courts teaching the people.” 26 At that, the captain went with his officers and brought the apostles. They did not use force, because they feared that the people(A) would stone them.
27 The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin(B) to be questioned by the high priest. 28 “We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,”(C) he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man’s blood.”(D)
29 Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!(E)

26 Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.
27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,

29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
