16. They said, “What shall we do with these men? Everyone in Jerusalem knows that they have done a great miracle! We cannot say it is not true.
17. But we must warn them not to talk to people anymore using that name. Then this thing will not spread among the people.”
18. So they called Peter and John in again. They told them not to speak or to teach at all in the name of Jesus.
19. But Peter and John answered them, “What do you think is right? What would God want? Should we obey you or God?
20. We cannot keep quiet. We must speak about what we have seen and heard.”
