Acts 5:26-28
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
26 Then the military leader went with the attendants and brought [the prisoners], but without violence, for they dreaded the people lest they be stoned by them.
27 So they brought them and set them before the council (Sanhedrin). And the high priest examined them by questioning,
28 Saying, We definitely commanded and strictly charged you not to teach in or about this Name; yet here you have flooded Jerusalem with your doctrine and you intend to bring this [a]Man’s blood upon us.

Acts 5:26-28
New International Version
26 At that, the captain went with his officers and brought the apostles. They did not use force, because they feared that the people(A) would stone them.
27 The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin(B) to be questioned by the high priest. 28 “We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,”(C) he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man’s blood.”(D)
