Acts 5:39 in Context — Acts 5
37 Depois deste se levantou Judas, o galileu, nos dias do censo; e perverteu muito do povo atrás dele; e este também pereceu, e todos os que acreditavam nele foram dispersos.
38 E agora, eu vos digo, afastai-vos destes homens, e deixai-os; porque se este conselho ou esta obra for humana, ela se desfará.
39 Mas se é de Deus, vós não a podereis desfazer; para que não venhais a ser achados de também lutardes contra Deus.
40 E concordaram com ele. E chamando aos apóstolos, tendo [os] açoitado, mandaram [-lhes] que não [mais] falassem no nome de Jesus; e os deixaram ir.
41 Então eles saíram da presença do supremo conselho, alegres por terem sido considerados dignos de serem humilhados por causa do nome dele.
