Acts 4:5

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life. And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

Then 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;

And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council,

Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

And it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon him with the elders,

And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,

And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death: And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.
