7. And stationing them in the middle, they questioned them: "By what power, or in whose name, have you done this?"
8. Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: "Leaders of the people and elders, listen.
9. If we today are judged by a good deed done to an infirm man, by which he has been made whole,
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.
11. He is the stone, which was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.
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."
13. Then, seeing the constancy of Peter and John, having verified that they were men without letters or learning, they wondered. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus.
14. Also, seeing the man who had been cured standing with them, they were unable to say anything to contradict them.
15. But they ordered them to withdraw outside, away from the council, and they conferred among themselves,
16. saying: "What shall we do to these men? For certainly a public sign has been done through them, before all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. It is manifest, and we cannot deny it.
17. But lest it spread further among the people, let us threaten them not to speak anymore in this name to any man."
18. And calling them in, they warned them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.
