Acts 12:19-23

19And HerodG2264 having soughtG1934 him and not foundG2147 him, having examined the guardsG5441, commandedG2753 [them] to be executed. And he went downG2718 from Judaea to CaesareaG2542 and stayedG1304 [there].

20And he wasG1510 in bitter hostility with [the] Tyrians and Sidonians; but they came to him with oneG3661 accordG3661, and, having gained Blastus the king's chamberlain, sought peaceG1515, because their countryG5561 wasG1510 nourishedG5142 by the king's.

21And on a set dayG2250, clothed in royalG937 apparelG2066 and sittingG2523 on the elevated seatG968 [of honour], HerodG2264 made a public oration to them.

22And the people cried out, A 1god's voiceG5456 and not a man's.

23And immediatelyG3916 an angelG32 of [the] LordG2962 smote him, because he did not giveG1325 the gloryG1391 to 2GodG2316, and he expired, eaten of worms.
