18And after calling them in, they ordered them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

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

20For we are not able not to speak about what we have seen and heard.

21So after further threatening them, they released them, finding no way to punish them because of the people, since everyone was glorifying God for what had happened.

22For the man on whom this sign of healing had happened was more than forty years old.
