Acts 5:40 in Context — Acts 5
38 Y ahora os digo: Dejaos de estos hombres, y dejadlos; porque si este consejo ó esta obra es de los hombres, se desvanecerá:
39 Mas si es de Dios, no la podréis deshacer; no seáis tal vez hallados resistiendo á Dios.
40 Y convinieron con él: y llamando á los apóstoles, después de azotados, les intimaron que no hablasen en el nombre de Jesús, y soltáronlos.
41 Y ellos partieron de delante del concilio, gozosos de que fuesen tenidos por dignos de padecer afrenta por el Nombre.
42 Y todos los días, en el templo y por las casas, no cesaban de enseñar y predicar á Jesucristo.
