In context
33 Wajumbe wa baraza waliposikia hivi, walishikwa na hasira wakataka kuwaua mitume.
34 Lakini pharisayo aliyeitwa Gamalieli, mwalimu wa sheria, aliyeheshimiwa na watu wote, alisimama na kuwaamuru mitume wachukuliwe nje kwa muda mfupi.
35 Kisha akawaambia, “Wanaume wa Israeli, iweni makini sana na kile mnachopendekeza kuwafanyia watu hawa.
36 Kwa sababu, zamani zilizopita, Theuda aliinuka na kujidai kuwa mtu mkuu, na idadi ya watu, wapata mia nne walimfuata. Aliuawa, na wote waliokuwa wanamtii walitawanyika na kupotea.
37 Baada ya mtu huyu, Yuda mgalilaya, aliinuka siku zile za kuandikwa sensa, akavuta watu wengi nyuma yake. Naye pia alipotea na wote waliokuwa wakimtii walitawanyika.
38 Sasa nawaambia, jiepusheni na watu hawa na muwaache wenyewe, kwa sababu, kama mpango huu au kazi hii ni ya watu itatupwa.
39 Lakini kama ni ya Mungu, hamtaweza kuwazuia; mnaweza mkajikuta hata mnashindana na Mungu.” Hivyo, walishawishika na maneno yake.
