Acts 5:21-24

English Standard Version

²¹ And when they heard this, ^(A)they entered the temple ^(B)at daybreak and began to teach.

Now when the high priest came, and those who were with him, they called together the council, all the senate of the people of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought. ²² But when the officers came, they did not find them in the prison, so they returned and reported, ²³ “We found the prison securely locked and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them we found no one inside.” ²⁴ Now when ^(C)the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were greatly perplexed about them, wondering what this would come to.
