Acts 5:12-22

12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders done among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch,
13 but of the rest durst no man join them, but the people magnified them;
14 and believers were more than ever added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women;)
15 so that they brought out the sick into the streets and put [them] on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter, when he came, might overshadow some one of them.
16 And the multitude also of the cities round about came together to Jerusalem, bringing sick persons and persons beset by unclean spirits, who were all healed.
17 And the high priest rising up, and all they that were with him, which is the sect of the Sadducees, were filled with wrath,
18 and laid hands on the apostles and put them in the public prison.
19 But an angel of [the] Lord during the night opened the doors of the prison, and leading them out, said,
20 Go ye and stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
21 And when they heard it, they entered very early into the temple and taught. And when the high priest was come, and they that were with him, they called together the council and all the elderhood of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
22 And when the officers were come, they did not find them in the prison; and returned and reported
