NowG1161 aboutG2596 that timeG2540 HerodG2264 the kingG935 stretchedG1911 forthG1911 his handsG5495 to vexG2559 certainG5100 of the church.G1577
2
And he killedG337 JamesG2385 the brotherG80 of JohnG2491 with the sword.G3162
3
And because he sawG1492 it pleasedG701 the Jews,G2453 he proceededG4369 further to takeG4815 PeterG4074 also.G2532 (ThenG1161 were the daysG2250 of unleavenedG106 bread.)
4
And when he had apprehendedG4084 him, he putG5087 him in prison,G5438 and deliveredG3860 him to fourG5064 squadsG5069 of soldiersG4757 to keepG5442 him; intendingG1011 afterG3326 EasterG3957 to bringG321 him forthG321 to the people.G2992
5
PeterG4074 thereforeG3767 was keptG5083 in prison:G5438 but prayerG4335 was madeG1096 withoutG1618 ceasingG1618 of the churchG1577 to GodG2316 for him.
6
And whenG3753 HerodG2264 wouldG3195 have broughtG4254 him forth,G4254 the sameG1565 nightG3571 PeterG4074 was sleepingG2837 betweenG3342 twoG1417 soldiers,G4757 boundG1210 with twoG1417 chains:G254 and the keepersG5441 beforeG4253 the doorG2374 keptG5083 the prison.G5438
7
And, behold,G2400 the angelG32 of the LordG2962 cameG2186 on him, and a lightG5457 shinedG2989 in the prison:G3612 and he smoteG3960 PeterG4074 on the side,G4125 and raisedG1453 him up, saying,G3004 AriseG450 up quickly.G1722 G5034 And his chainsG254 fellG1601 offG1601 from his hands.G5495
8
And the angelG32 saidG2036 to him, GirdG2224 yourself, and bindG5265 onG5265 your sandals.G4547 And soG3779 he did.G4160 And he saidG3004 to him, CastG4016 your garmentG2440 aboutG4016 you, and followG190 me.
9
And he wentG1831 out, and followedG190 him; and knewG1492 not that it was trueG227 whichG3588 was doneG1096 by the angel;G32 but thoughtG1380 he sawG991 a vision.G3705
10
When they were pastG1330 the firstG4413 and the secondG1208 ward,G5438 they cameG2064 to the ironG4603 gateG4439 that leadsG5342 to the city;G4172 whichG3748 openedG455 to them of his ownG848 accord:G844 and they wentG1831 out, and passedG4281 on through oneG3391 street;G4505 and immediatelyG2112 the angelG32 departedG868 from him.
11
And when PeterG4074 was comeG1096 to himself,G1438 he said,G2036 NowG3568 I knowG1492 of a surety,G230 that the LORDG2962 has sentG1821 his angel,G32 and has deliveredG1807 me out of the handG5495 of Herod,G2264 and from allG3956 the expectationG4329 of the peopleG2992 of the Jews.G2453
12
And when he had consideredG4894 the thing, he cameG2064 to the houseG3614 of MaryG3137 the motherG3384 of John,G2491 whoseG3588 surnameG1941 was Mark;G3138 whereG3757 manyG2425 were gatheredG4863 togetherG4867 praying.G4336
13
And as PeterG4074 knockedG2925 at the door of the gate,G4440 a damselG3814 cameG4334 to listen,G5219 namedG3686 Rhoda.G4498
14
And when she knewG1921 Peter'sG4074 voice,G5456 she openedG455 not the gateG4440 for gladness,G5479 but ranG1532 in, and toldG518 how PeterG4074 stoodG2476 beforeG4253 the gate.G4440
15
And they saidG2036 to her, You are mad.G3105 But she constantlyG1340 affirmedG1340 that it was even so.G3779 ThenG1161 saidG3004 they, It is his angel.
16
But PeterG4074 continuedG1961 knocking:G2925 and when they had openedG455 the door, and sawG1492 him, they were astonished.G1839
17
But he, beckoningG2678 to them with the handG5495 to holdG4601 their peace,G4601 declaredG1334 to them howG4459 the LordG2962 had broughtG1806 him out of the prison.G5438 And he said,G2036 Go showG518 theseG5023 things to James,G2385 and to the brothers.G80 And he departed,G1831 and wentG4198 intoG1519 anotherG2087 place.G5117
18
NowG1161 as soonG1096 as it was day,G2250 there was noG3756 smallG3641 stirG5017 amongG1722 the soldiers,G4757 whatG5101 G686 was becomeG1096 of Peter.G4074
19
And when HerodG2264 had soughtG1934 for him, and foundG2147 him not, he examinedG350 the keepers,G5441 and commandedG2753 that they should be putG520 to death.G520 And he wentG2718 downG2718 from JudaeaG2449 to Caesarea,G2542 and there stayed.G1304
20
And HerodG2264 was highlyG2371 displeasedG2371 with them of TyreG5184 and Sidon:G4605 but they cameG3918 with oneG3661 accordG3661 to him, and, having madeG3982 BlastusG986 the king'sG935 chamberlainG1909 their friend,G3982 desiredG154 peace;G1515 becauseG1223 their countryG5561 was nourishedG5142 by the king'sG937 country.G5561
21
And on a setG5002 dayG2250 Herod,G2264 arrayedG1746 in royalG937 apparel,G2066 satG2523 on his throne,G968 and madeG1215 an orationG1215 to them.
22
And the peopleG1218 gave a shout,G2019 saying, It is the voiceG5456 of a god,G2316 and not of a man.G444
23
And immediatelyG3916 the angelG32 of the LordG2962 smoteG3960 him, becauseG473 G3739 he gaveG1325 not GodG2316 the glory:G1391 and he was eatenG4662 of worms,G4662 and gave up the ghost.G1634
24
But the wordG3056 of GodG2316 grewG837 and multiplied.G4129
25
And BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 returnedG5290 from Jerusalem,G2419 when they had fulfilledG4137 their ministry,G1248 and tookG4838 with them John,G2491 whoseG3588 surnameG1941 was Mark.G3138
