Acts 16:27-32

27When 1the jailerG1200 awokeG1853 and sawG3708 the prisonG5438 doorsG2374 openedG455, he drewG4685 his swordG3162 and was aboutG3195 2to killG337 himselfG1438, supposingG3543 that the prisonersG1198 had escapedG1628.

28But PaulG3972 criedG5455 out with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, sayingG3004, “DoG4238 not harmG2556 yourselfG4572, for we are allG537 hereG1759!”

29And he calledG154 for lightsG5457 and rushedG1530 in, and tremblingG1790 with fearG1790 he fellG4363 downG4363 beforeG4363 3PaulG3972 and SilasG4609,

30and after he broughtG4254 them out, he saidG5346, “SirsG2962, 4whatG5101 mustG1163 I doG4160 to be savedG4982?”

31They saidG3004, “5BelieveG4100 in the LordG2962 JesusG2424, and you will be savedG4982, you and 6your householdG3624.”

32And they spokeG2980 the wordG3056 of 7the LordG2962 to him togetherG4862 with allG3956 whoG3588 were in his houseG3614.
