Now{G1161} about{G2596} that{G1565} time{G2540} Herod{G2264} the king{G935} put forth{G1911} his hands{G5495} to afflict{G2559} certain{G5100} of{G575} the church.{G1577}

And{G1161} he killed{G337} James{G2385} the brother{G80} of John{G2491} with the sword.{G3162}

And{G2532} when{G3754} he saw{G1492} that{G2076} it pleased{G701} the Jews,{G2453} he proceeded{G4369} to seize{G4815} Peter{G4074} also.{G2532} And{G1161} [those] were{G2258} the days{G2250} of unleavened bread.{G106}

And{G2532} when{G3739} he had taken him,{G4084} he put{G5087} him in{G1519} prison,{G5438} and delivered{G3860} him to four{G5064} quaternions{G5069} of soldiers{G4757} to guard{G5442} him;{G846} intending{G1014} after{G3326} the Passover{G3957} to bring{G321} him{G846} forth{G321} to the people.{G2992}

Peter{G4074} therefore{G3767} {G3303} was kept{G5083} in{G1722} the prison:{G5438} but{G1161} prayer{G4335} was{G2258} made{G1096} earnestly{G1618} of{G5259} the church{G1577} unto{G4314} God{G2316} for{G5228} him.{G846}

And{G1161} when{G3753} Herod{G2264} was about{G3195} to bring{G4254} him{G846} forth,{G4254} the same{G1565} night{G3571} Peter{G4074} was{G2258} sleeping{G2837} between{G3342} two{G1417} soldiers,{G4757} bound{G1210} with two{G1417} chains:{G254} and{G5037} guards{G5441} before{G4253} the door{G2374} kept{G5083} the prison.{G5438}

And{G2532} behold,{G2400} an angel{G32} of the Lord{G2962} stood by{G2186} him, and{G2532} a light{G5457} shined{G2989} in{G1722} the cell:{G3612} and{G1161} he smote{G3960} Peter{G4074} on the side,{G4125} and awoke{G1453} him,{G846} {G1453} saying,{G3004} Rise{G450} up{G1453} quickly.{G5034} And{G2532} his{G846} chains{G254} fell off{G1601} from{G1537} his hands.{G5495}

And{G5037} the angel{G32} said{G2036} unto{G4314} him,{G846} Gird thyself,{G4024} and{G2532} bind on{G5265} thy{G4675} sandals.{G4547} And{G1161} he did{G4160} so.{G3779} And{G2532} he saith{G3004} unto him,{G846} Cast{G4016} thy{G4675} garment{G2440} about thee,{G4016} and{G2532} follow{G190} me.{G3427}

And{G2532} he went out,{G1831} and followed;{G190} {G846} and{G2532} he knew{G1492} not{G3756} that{G3754} it was{G2076} true{G227} which was done{G1096} by{G1223} the angel,{G32} but{G1161} thought{G1380} he saw{G991} a vision.{G3705}

And when{G1161} they were past{G1330} the first{G4413} and{G2532} the second{G1208} guard,{G5438} they came{G2064} unto{G1909} the iron{G4603} gate{G4439} that leadeth{G5342} into the city;{G4172} which{G3748} opened{G455} to{G1519} them{G846} of its own accord:{G844} and{G2532} they went out,{G1831} and passed on through{G4281} one{G1520} street;{G4505} and{G2532} straightway{G2112} the angel{G32} departed{G868} from{G575} him.{G846}

And when{G2532} Peter{G4074} was come{G1096} to{G1722} himself,{G1438} he said,{G2036} Now{G3568} I know{G1492} of a truth,{G230} that{G3754} the Lord{G2962} hath sent{G1821} forth his{G846} angel{G32} and{G2532} delivered{G1807} me{G3165} out of{G1537} the hand{G5495} of Herod,{G2264} and{G2532} from all{G3956} the expectation{G4329} of the people{G2992} of the Jews.{G2453}

And{G5037} when he had considered{G4894} [the thing], he came{G2064} to{G1909} the house{G3614} of Mary{G3137} the mother{G3384} of John{G2491} whose surname was{G1941} Mark;{G3138} where{G3757} many{G2425} were{G2258} gathered together{G4867} and{G2532} were praying.{G4336}

And when{G1161} he{G4074} knocked{G2925} at the door{G2374} of the gate,{G4440} a maid{G3814} came{G4334} to answer,{G5219} named{G3686} Rhoda.{G4498}

And{G2532} when she knew{G1921} Peter's{G4074} voice,{G5456} she opened{G455} not{G3756} the gate{G4440} for{G575} joy,{G5479} but{G1161} ran in,{G1532} and told{G518} that{G2476} Peter{G4074} stood{G2476} before{G4253} the gate.{G4440}

And{G1161} they said{G2036} unto{G4314} her,{G846} Thou art mad.{G3105} But{G1161} she confidently affirmed{G1340} that it was{G2192} even so.{G3779} And{G1161} they{G3004} said, It is{G2076} his{G846} angel.{G32}

But{G1161} Peter{G4074} continued{G1961} knocking:{G2925} and{G1161} when they had opened,{G455} they saw{G1492} him,{G2532} and were amazed.{G1839}

But{G1161} he, beckoning{G2678} unto them{G846} with the hand{G5495} to hold their peace,{G4601} declared{G1334} unto them{G846} how{G4459} the Lord{G2962} had brought{G1806} him{G846} forth out of{G1537} the prison.{G5438} And{G1161} he said,{G2036} Tell{G518} these things{G5023} unto James,{G2385} and{G2532} to the brethren.{G80} And{G2532} he departed,{G1831} and went{G4198} to{G1519} another{G2087} place.{G5117}

Now{G1161} as soon as it was{G1096} day,{G2250} there was{G2258} no{G3756} small{G3641} stir{G5017} among{G1722} the soldiers,{G4757} what{G5101} {G687} was become{G1096} of Peter.{G4074}

And{G1161} when Herod{G2264} had sought{G1934} for him,{G846} and{G2532} found him{G2147} not,{G3361} he examined{G350} the guards,{G5441} and commanded that{G2753} they should be put to death.{G520} And{G2532} he went down{G2718} from{G575} Judaea{G2449} to{G1519} Caesarea,{G2542} and{G1304} tarried{G1304} there.

Now{G1161} he{G2264} was{G2258} highly displeased{G2371} with them of Tyre{G5183} and{G2532} Sidon:{G4606} and{G1161} they came{G3918} with one accord{G3661} to{G4314} him,{G846} and,{G2532} having made{G3982} Blastus{G986} the king's{G935} {G1909} chamberlain{G2846} their friend,{G3982} they asked{G154} for peace,{G1515} because{G1223} their{G846} country{G5561} was fed{G5142} from{G575} the king's{G937} country.

And{G1161} upon a set{G5002} day{G2250} Herod{G2264} arrayed himself in{G1746} royal{G937} apparel,{G2532} and sat{G2523} on{G1909} the throne,{G968} and made an oration{G1215} unto{G4314} them.{G846}

And{G1161} the people{G1218} shouted,{G2019} [saying], The voice{G5456} of a god,{G2316} and{G2532} not{G3756} of a man.{G444}

And{G1161} immediately{G3916} an angel{G32} of the Lord{G2962} smote{G3960} him,{G846} because{G473} {G3739} he gave{G1325} not{G3756} God{G2316} the glory:{G1391} and{G2532} he was{G1096} eaten of worms,{G4662} and gave up the ghost.{G1634}

But{G1161} the word{G3056} of God{G2316} grew{G837} and{G2532} multiplied.{G4129}

And{G1161} Barnabas{G921} and{G2532} Saul{G4569} returned{G5290} from{G1537} Jerusalem,{G2419} when they had fulfilled{G4137} their ministration,{G1248} taking{G2532} with them{G4838} John{G2491} whose surname was{G1941} Mark.{G3138}
