Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

After throwing around more threats, they had to let Peter and John walk free. They couldn't find any way to punish them because everyone was praising God for the miracle that happened — and going against public opinion wasn't an option.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

When God shows up, even the opposition has to step back and let his people go.
