Acts 12:19-23
19When HerodG2264 had searchedG1934 for him and had not foundG2147 him, he examinedG350 the guardsG5441 and orderedG2753 that they 1be ledG520 awayG520 to execution. ThenG1161 he wentG2718 downG2718 from JudeaG2453 to 2CaesareaG2542 and was spendingG1304 timeG1304 there.
20NowG1161 he was veryG2371 angryG2371 with the people of 3TyreG5183 and SidonG4606; and with oneG3661 accordG3661 they cameG3918 to him, and having wonG3982 overG3982 BlastusG986 the king’sG935 chamberlainG1909G2846, they were askingG154 for peaceG1515, becauseG1223 4their countryG5561 was fedG5142 by the king’sG937 country. 21On an appointedG5002 dayG2250 HerodG2264, having putG1746 on his royalG937 apparelG2066, tookG2523 his seatG2523 on the 5rostrumG968 and began deliveringG1215 an addressG1215 to them. 22The peopleG1218 kept cryingG2019 out, “The voiceG5456 of a godG2316 and not of a manG444!” 23And immediatelyG3916 6an angelG32 of the LordG2962 struckG3960 him becauseG473G3739 he did not giveG1325 GodG2316 the gloryG1391, and he was eatenG4662 by wormsG4662 and 7diedG1634.
