Threat and Release

¹³ Now as they observed the ^(A)confidence of ^(B)Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and ^(C)began to recognize them ^[a]as having been with Jesus.

²⁹ And ^[a]now, Lord, take note of their threats, and grant that Your bond-servants may ^(A)speak Your word with all ^(B)confidence,

⁴ Great is my ^(A)confidence ^[a]in you; great is my ^(B)boasting on your behalf. I am filled with ^(C)comfort; I am overflowing with ^(D)joy in all our affliction.

¹⁹ and ^(A)pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me ^(B)in the opening of my mouth, to make known with ^(C)boldness ^(D)the mystery of the gospel,

² but after we had already suffered and been ^(A)mistreated in ^(B)Philippi, as you know, we had the boldness in our God ^(C)to speak to you the ^(D)gospel of God amid much ^[a](E)opposition.
