Acts 5:18

5:18 They ¹  laid hands on ²  the apostles and put them in a public jail.

¹ tn Grk “jealousy, and they.” In the Greek text this is a continuation of the previous sentence, but a new sentence has been started here in the translation for stylistic reasons.

² tn Or “they arrested.”

³ tn The word “them” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects in Greek were often omitted when clear from the context, but must be supplied for the modern English reader.
