And the high priest questioned them, 28 saying, “We ^astrictly commanded you not to continue teaching in this name, and ¹yet, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and ^bintend to bring this man’s blood upon us.” 29 But Peter and the apostles answered and said, “^aWe must obey God rather than men. 30 ^aThe God of our fathers ^braised up Jesus, ¹whom you ^cput to death by hanging Him on a tree. 31 ^aThis One God exalted ¹to His right hand as ²a ^bLeader and a ^cSavior, to grant ^drepentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. 32 And we are ^awitnesses ¹of these things, and ^bso is the Holy Spirit, whom God gave to those who obey Him.”
