Acts 16:27-32

27When the jailer woke up and saw the doors of the prison standing open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, because he assumed the prisoners had escaped.

28But Paul called out loudly, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here!”

29Calling for lights, the jailer rushed in and fell down trembling at the feet of Paul and Silas.

30Then he brought them outside and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

31They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household.”

32Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him, along with all those who were in his house.
