26and suddenlyG869 1there was a greatG3173 earthquakeG4578, soG5620 thatG5620 the foundationsG2310 of the prisonG1201 were shakenG4531; and immediatelyG3916 2allG3956 the doorsG2374 were openedG455, and everyone’sG3956 3chainsG1199 were unfastenedG447. 27When 4the jailerG1200 awokeG1853 and sawG3708 the prisonG5438 doorsG2374 openedG455, he drewG4685 his swordG3162 and wasG3195 aboutG3195 5toG3195 killG337 himselfG1438, thinkingG3543 that the prisonersG1198 had escapedG1628. 28But PaulG3972 calledG5455 outG5455 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, sayingG3004, “DoG4238 not harmG2556 yourselfG4572, for we are allG537 hereG1759!” 29And the jailer askedG154 for lightsG5457 and rushedG1530 inG1530, and tremblingG1790 withG1790 fearG1790, he fellG4363 downG4363 beforeG4363 6PaulG3972 and SilasG4609; 30and after he broughtG4254 them out, he saidG5346, “SirsG2962, 7whatG5101 mustG1163 I doG4160 to be savedG4982?” 31They saidG3004, “8BelieveG4100 in the LordG2962 JesusG2424, and you will be savedG4982, you and 9your householdG3624.” 32And they spokeG2980 the wordG3056 of GodG2962 to him togetherG4862 with allG3956 whoG3588 were in his houseG3614. 33And he tookG3880 them 10that very hourG5610 of the nightG3571 and washedG3068 their woundsG4127, and immediatelyG3916 he was baptizedG907, he and allG537 his household. 34And he broughtG321 them into his houseG3624 and setG3908 11foodG5132 beforeG3908 them, and was 12overjoyedG21, since he had becomeG4100 aG4100 believerG4100 in GodG2316 togetherG3832 withG3832 13his wholeG3832 householdG3832.
