‏ Acts 4:31

The place was shaken ( εσαλευθη ο τοπος ). By an earthquake most likely as in 16:26, but none the less a token of God's presence and power (Ps 114:7; Isa 2:19, 21; Heb 12:26f.).

Were gathered together ( ησαν συνηγμενο ). Periphrastic past perfect passive of συναγω.

They spake ( ελαλουν ). Imperfect active indicative, began to speak, after being filled ( επλησθησαν, aorist passive indicative) with the Holy Spirit. Luke uses the very words of the prayer in verse 29 to describe their conduct.
