27. For indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together in this city with the Gentiles and the people of Israel against Jesus, your holy Servant, whom you made Messiah.

28. They gathered to do everything that you by your power and will had already decided would happen.

29. And now, Lord, take notice of the threats they have made, and allow us, your servants, to speak your message with all boldness.

30. Stretch out your hand to heal, and grant that wonders and miracles may be performed through the name of your holy Servant Jesus.”

31. When they finished praying, the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to proclaim God's message with boldness.
