Acts 5:24-26

New Century Version

²⁴ Hearing this, the captain of the Temple guards and the leading priests were confused and wondered what was happening.

²⁵ Then someone came and told them, “Listen! The men you put in jail are standing in the Temple teaching the people.” ²⁶ Then the captain and his men went out and brought the apostles back. But the soldiers did not use force, because they were afraid the people would stone them to death.
