23Then after they were released, they came to their own and announced all that the high priests and the elders had said to them.24When they heard this, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said, "Master, you who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them."25The one of our fathers who spoke by the mouth of your child David through the Holy Spirit said, "Why did the Gentiles rage, and the peoples plot empty things?"26The kings of the earth stood by, and the rulers assembled together against the Lord and against his Christ.27For they assembled in truth in this city against your holy child Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel.28To do whatever your hand and your plan predestined to take place.29And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant to your servants that they may speak your word with all boldness.30while you stretch out your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may occur through the name of your holy servant Jesus.31After they prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken, and they were all filled with the holy Spirit and spoke the word of God with boldness.
