Acts 12:19-23
19After HerodG2264 had searchedG1934 for himG846 unsuccessfully, he examinedG350 theG3588 guardsG5441 and ordered thatG2753 they be executedG520. ThenG2532 he went downG2718 fromG575 JudeaG2449 toG1519 CaesareaG2542 and spent some timeG1304 there.
20NowG1161 Herod wasG1510 in a furious disputeG23711 with the people of TyreG5183 andG2532 SidonG4606, andG1161 they convenedG3661G3918 beforeG4314 himG846. Having secured the supportG3982 of BlastusG986, theG3588 king’sG935 chamberlainG1909G3588G2846, they asked forG154 peaceG1515, becauseG1223 theirG846 regionG5561 dependedG575 on theG3588 king’sG937 country for foodG5142. 21On the appointedG5002 dayG2250, HerodG2264 donnedG1746 his royalG937 robes, satG2523 onG1909 his throneG968, and addressedG1215 the people. 22AndG1161 they began to shoutG2019, “This is the voiceG5456 of a godG2316, notG3756 a manG444!”
23ImmediatelyG3916, becauseG473G3739 Herod did not giveG3756G1325 gloryG1391 to GodG2316, an angelG32 of the LordG2962 struckG3960 him downG846, andG2532 he wasG1096 eaten by wormsG4662 and diedG1634.
