Acts 4 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Now it happened ^G1096 that on the next ^G839 day ^G839, their rulers ^G758 and elders ^G4245 and scribes ^G1122 were gathered ^G4863 together ^G4863 in Jerusalem ^G2419;

Now ^G1161 as they observed ^G2334 the confidence ^G3954 of Peter ^G4074 and John ^G2491 and comprehended ^G2638 that they were uneducated ^G62 and ordinary ^G2399 men ^G444, they were ^G2296 marveling ^G2296, and began to recognize ^G1921 them [fn]as having been ^G1510 with Jesus ^G2424.

So when they were released ^G630, they went ^G2064 to their own ^G2398 companions and reported ^G518 all ^G3745 that the chief ^G749 priests ^G749 and the elders ^G4245 had said ^G3004 to them.

‘WHY ^G2443 G5101 DID THE [fn]GENTILES ^G1484 RAGE ^G5433,

AND THE PEOPLES ^G2992 DEVISE ^G3191 VAIN ^G2756 THINGS ^G2756?

‘THE KINGS ^G935 OF THE EARTH ^G1093 [fn]TOOK ^G3936 THEIR STAND ^G3936,

AND THE RULERS ^G758 WERE GATHERED ^G4863 TOGETHER ^{G1909 G3588 G846}

AGAINST ^G2596 THE LORD ^G2962 AND AGAINST ^G2596 HIS [fn]CHRIST ^G5547.’

“For truly ^G1909 G225 in this ^G3778 city ^G4172 there were gathered ^G4863 together ^G4863 against ^G1909 Your holy ^G40 [fn]Servant ^G3816 Jesus ^G2424, whom ^G3739 You anointed ^G5548, both ^G5037 Herod ^G2264 and Pontius ^G4194 Pilate ^G4091, along ^G4862 with the [fn]Gentiles ^G1484 and the peoples ^G2992 of Israel ^G2474,

And the [fn]congregation ^G4128 of those ^G3588 who believed ^G4100 were of one ^G1520 heart ^G2588 and soul ^G5590, and not one ^G1520 was saying ^G3004 that any ^G5100 of his possessions ^G5225 was his own ^G2398, but, for them, everything ^G3956 was common ^G2839.

Now Joseph ^G2501, a Levite ^G3019 of Cyprian ^G2953 birth ^G1085, who was also called ^G1941 Barnabas ^G921 by the apostles ^G652 (which ^G3739 translated ^G3177 means ^G1510 Son ^G5207 of [fn]Encouragement ^G3874),
