    5They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

    6They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

    7But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

    8So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

5:33¶ When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.

Selected passage

5:34Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;

5:35And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.

5:36For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.

5:37After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.

5:38And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:

5:39But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

5:40And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
