Acts 4:3-13 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

3. And they arrested them, and put them in jail until the next day, for it was already evening.

4. But many of those who had heard the word believed, and the number of the men became about five thousand.

5. And it came to be, on the next day, that their rulers and elders and scribes assembled in Yerushalayim,

7. And having placed them in the middle, they asked, “By what power or in what Name did you do this?”

8. Then Kĕpha, filled with the Set-apart Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders of Yisra’ĕl:

9. “If today we are called to account for a good deed towards a sick man, by whom he has been healed,

11. “This is ‘the stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.’

12. “And there is no deliverance in anyone else, for there is no other Name under the heaven given among men by which we need to be saved.”
