Acts 4:15-21 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

15. But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred amongst themselves,

16. saying, “What shall we do to these men? Because indeed a notable miracle has been done through them, as can be plainly seen by all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we can’t deny it.

17. But so that this spreads no further amongst the people, let’s threaten them, that from now on they don’t speak to anyone in this name.”

18. They called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Yeshua.

19. But Peter and Yochanan answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves,

20. for we can’t help telling the things which we saw and heard.”

21. When they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people; for everyone glorified God for that which was done.
