who ^(C1)by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David Your servant, said, '^(C2)WHY WERE THE ^(F1)NATIONS INSOLENT, AND THE PEOPLES PLOTTING IN VAIN?

-'^(C1)THE KINGS OF THE EARTH ^(F1)TOOK THEIR STAND, AND THE RULERS WERE GATHERED TOGETHER AGAINST THE LORD AND AGAINST HIS ^(F2)(C2)CHRIST.'

"For truly in this city there were gathered together against Your holy ^(F1)(C1)Servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both ^(C2)Herod and ^(C3)Pontius Pilate, along with ^(C4)the ^(F2)Gentiles and the peoples of Israel,

to do whatever Your hand and ^(C1)purpose predestined to occur.

"And ^(F1)now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant it to Your bond-servants to ^(C1)speak Your word with all ^(C2)confidence,

while You extend Your hand to heal, and ^(F1)(C1)signs and wonders take place through the name of Your holy ^(F2)(C2)Servant Jesus."

And when they had prayed, the ^(C1)place where they had gathered together was shaken, and they were all ^(C2)filled with the Holy Spirit and began to ^(C3)speak the word of God with ^(C4)boldness.
