King Herod persecuteth the Christians, killeth James, and imprisoneth Peter: whom an angel delivereth upon the prayers of the Church.1 ¶ Nowº aboutº thatº timeº Herodº the² kingº stretched forthºª [his] handsº to vexºª certainº ofº the² church.º 2 Andº he killedºª Jamesº the² brotherº of Johnº with the sword.º 3 Andº because he sawºª itº pleasedººª the² Jews,º he proceeded furtherºª to takeºª Peterº also.º (Thenº wereºª the daysº of unleavened bread.)º 4 Andº¹ when he² had apprehendedºª him, he putºª [him] inº prison,º and deliveredºª [him] to fourº quaternionsº of soldiersº to keepºª him;º intendingºª afterº Easterº to bring¹ª him¹ forthºª² to the² people.º 5 Peterº¹ thereforeº was² keptºª inº prison:º butº prayerº wasºª madeºª without ceasingº ofº the² churchº untoº Godº forº him.º 6 Andº whenº Herodº wouldºª have brought¹ª him¹ forth,ºª² the² sameº nightº Peterº wasºª sleepingºª betweenº twoº soldiers,º boundºª with twoº chains:º andº the keepersº beforeº the² doorº keptºª the² prison.º 7 And,º behold,ºª the angelº of the Lordº came uponºª [him], andº a lightº shinedºª inº the² prison:º andº he smoteºª Peterº on the² side,º and raised¹ª him¹ up,ºª² saying,ºª Arise upºª quickly.ºº Andº hisº chainsº fell offºª fromº [his] hands.º 8 Andº the² angelº saidºª untoº him,º Gird thyself,ºª andº bind² on¹ª thyº sandals.º Andº soº he did.ºª Andº he saithºª unto him,º Cast¹ª thy garment¹ aboutºª²² thee,¹ andº followºª me.º 9 Andº he went out,ºª and followedºª him;º andº wistºª notº thatº it wasºª trueº which¹ was doneºª byº the² angel;º butº thoughtºª he sawºª a vision.º 10 Whenº they were pastºª the firstº andº the secondº ward,º they cameºª untoº the² ironº gateº that leadethºª untoº the² city;º whichº openedºª to themº of his own accord:º andº they went out,ºª and passed on² through¹ª oneº street;º andº forthwithº the² angelº departedºª fromº him.º 11 Andº when Peterº was comeºª toº himself,º he said,ºª Nowº I knowºª of a surety,º thatº the Lordº hath sentºª his¹² angel,º andº hath deliveredºª meº out ofº the handº of Herod,º andº [from] allº the² expectationº of the² peopleº of the² Jews.º 12 Andº when he had consideredºª [the thing], he cameºª toº the² houseº of Maryº the² motherº of John,º whose surname² was¹ª Mark;º whereº manyº wereºª gathered togetherºª² praying.º¹ª 13 Andº as Peterº knocked² at¹ª the² doorº of the² gate,º a damselº cameºª to hearken,ºª namedº Rhoda.º 14 Andº when she knewºª Peter'sº voice,º she openedºª notº the² gateº forº gladness,º butº ran in,ºª and told² how¹ª Peterº stoodºª beforeº the² gate.º 15 Andº they² saidºª untoº her,º Thou art mad.ºª Butº she² constantly affirmedºª that it wasºª even so.º Thenº said² they,¹ª² It isºª hisº angel.º 16 Butº Peterº continuedºª knocking:ºª andº when they had openedºª [the door], and sawºª him,º¹ they were² astonished.ºª 17 Butº he, beckoningºª unto themº with the² handº to hold their peace,ºª declaredºª unto themº howº the² Lordº had broughtºª himº out ofº the² prison.º Andº he said,ºª Go shewºª these thingsº unto James,º andº to the² brethren.º Andº he departed,ºª and wentºª intoº anotherº place.º 18 Nowº as soon as it wasºª day,º there wasºª noº smallº stirº amongº the² soldiers,º whatº¹ was² becomeºª of Peter.º 19 Andº when¹ª Herodº had sought forºª him,º andº found² him¹ª not,º he examinedºª the² keepers,º and commandedºª that [they] should be put to death.ºª Andº he went downºª fromº Judaeaº toº Caesarea,º and [there] abode.ºª [1] Mt 10:17; 24:9; Lk 22:53; Jn 15:20; 16:2; Ac 4:30; 9:31.
