Acts 5:40 in Context — Acts 5
38 Et maintenant, je vous le dis ne vous occupez plus de ces hommes, et laissez-les aller. Si cette entreprise ou cette œuvre vient des hommes, elle se détruira;
39 mais si elle vient de Dieu, vous ne pourrez la détruire. Ne courez pas le risque d’avoir combattu contre Dieu.
40 Ils se rangèrent à son avis. Et ayant appelé les apôtres, ils les firent battre de verges, ils leur défendirent de parler au nom de Jésus, et ils les relâchèrent.
41 Les apôtres se retirèrent de devant le sanhédrin, joyeux d’avoir été jugés dignes de subir des outrages pour le nom de Jésus.
42 Et chaque jour, dans le temple et dans les maisons, ils ne cessaient d’enseigner, et d’annoncer la bonne nouvelle de Jésus-Christ.
