1NowG1161 aboutG2596 thatG1565 timeG2540 HerodG2264 theG3588 kingG935 putG1911 forth hisG2596 handsG5495 toG2596 afflict certainG5100 ofG575 theG3588 churchG1577. 2AndG1161 heG1161 killedG337 JamesG2385 theG3588 brotherG80 ofG80 JohnG2491 withG3588 theG3588 swordG3162. 3AndG2532 whenG2532 heG2532 sawG3708 thatG3754 itG3708 pleasedG701 theG3588 JewsG2453, heG2532 proceededG4369 toG2532 seize PeterG4074 alsoG2532. AndG2532 thoseG3588 wereG1510 theG3588 daysG2250 ofG2250 unleavenedG106 bread. 4AndG2532 whenG2532 heG2532 had takenG3860 himG846, heG2532 putG5087 himG846 inG1519 prisonG5438, andG2532 deliveredG3860 himG846 toG1519 fourG5064 quaternions ofG2992 soldiersG4757 toG1519 guardG5442 himG846; intendingG1014 afterG3326 theG3588 PassoverG3957 toG1519 bringG321 himG846 forth toG1519 theG3588 peopleG2992. 5PeterG4074 thereforeG3767 wasG1510 keptG5083 inG1722 theG3588 prisonG5438: butG1161 prayerG4335 wasG1510 madeG1096 earnestlyG1619 ofG2316 theG3588 churchG1577 unto GodG2316 forG4012 himG846. 6AndG1161 whenG3753 HerodG2264 wasG1510 aboutG3195 toG3195 bringG4254 himG846 forth, theG3588 sameG846 nightG3571 PeterG4074 wasG1510 sleepingG2837 betweenG3342 twoG1417 soldiersG4757, boundG1210 withG1210 twoG1417 chainsG254: andG1161 guardsG5441 beforeG4253 theG3588 doorG2374 keptG5083 theG3588 prisonG5438. 7AndG2532 beholdG2400, anG32 angelG32 ofG1537 theG3588 LordG2962 stoodG450 byG1722 himG846, andG2532 a lightG5457 shinedG2989 inG1722 theG3588 cellG3612: andG2532 heG2532 smote PeterG4074 onG1722 theG3588 sideG4125, andG2532 awokeG1453 himG846, sayingG3004, RiseG450 upG1453 quicklyG5034. AndG2532 hisG846 chainsG254 fell off fromG1537 hisG846 handsG5495. 8AndG2532 theG3588 angelG32 saidG3004 unto himG846, GirdG2224 thyself, andG2532 bind onG1161 thy sandalsG4547. AndG2532 heG2532 didG4160 soG2532. AndG2532 heG2532 saith unto himG846, Cast thy garmentG2440 aboutG4314 thee, andG2532 followG190 meG3004. 9AndG2532 heG2532 wentG1831 outG1831, andG2532 followedG190; andG2532 heG2532 wist notG3756 thatG3754 itG1223 wasG1510 trueG227 whichG3748 wasG1510 doneG1096 byG1223 theG3588 angelG32, butG1161 thoughtG1380 heG2532 sawG1492 a visionG3705. 10AndG2532 whenG2532 theyG846 were past theG3588 firstG4413 andG2532 theG3588 secondG1208 ward, theyG846 cameG2064 unto theG3588 ironG4603 gateG4439 thatG3748 leadeth intoG1519 theG3588 cityG4172; whichG3748 openedG455 toG1519 themG846 ofG575 itsG846 ownG846 accord: andG2532 theyG846 wentG1831 outG1831, andG2532 passedG1330 onG1909 throughG1330 oneG1520 streetG4505; andG2532 straightway theG3588 angelG32 departedG1831 fromG575 himG846. 11AndG2532 whenG2532 PeterG4074 was comeG1096 toG3004 himselfG1438, heG2532 saidG3004, NowG3568 IG1473 knowG1492 ofG1537 a truth, thatG3754 theG3956 LordG2962 hath sentG1821 forthG1821 hisG846 angelG32 andG2532 delivered meG3004 outG1537 ofG1537 theG3956 handG5495 ofG1537 HerodG2264, andG2532 fromG1537 allG3956 theG3956 expectationG4329 ofG1537 theG3956 peopleG2992 ofG1537 theG3956 JewsG2453. 12AndG2532 whenG2532 heG2532 hadG1510 considered theG3588 thing, heG2532 cameG2064 toG1909 theG3588 houseG3614 ofG1909 MaryG3137 theG3588 motherG3384 ofG1909 JohnG2491 whose surname wasG1510 MarkG3138; whereG3757 manyG2425 wereG1510 gatheredG4867 togetherG4867 andG2532 wereG1510 prayingG4336. 13AndG1161 whenG1161 heG846 knockedG2925 at theG3588 doorG2374 ofG3686 theG3588 gateG4440, a maid cameG4334 toG4334 answerG5219, namedG3686 RhodaG4498. 14AndG2532 whenG2532 she knewG1921 Peter’sG4074 voiceG5456, she openedG455 notG3756 theG3588 gateG4440 forG575 joyG5479, butG1161 ranG1532 inG2532, andG2532 toldG518 thatG1161 PeterG4074 stoodG2476 beforeG4253 theG3588 gateG4440. 15AndG1161 theyG846 saidG3004 unto herG846, Thou art madG3105. ButG1161 sheG846 confidently affirmed thatG3004 itG846 wasG1510 evenG1161 soG3779. AndG1161 theyG846 saidG3004, ItG846 isG1510 hisG846 angelG32. 16ButG1161 PeterG4074 continuedG1961 knockingG2925: andG2532 whenG2532 theyG846 had openedG455, theyG846 sawG3708 himG846, andG2532 were amazedG1839. 17ButG1161 heG2532, beckoning unto themG846 withG1537 theG3588 handG5495 toG1519 hold theirG846 peace, declaredG518 unto themG846 howG4459 theG3588 LordG2962 had broughtG1519 himG846 forthG1831 outG1831 ofG1537 theG3588 prisonG5438. AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004, TellG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778 unto JamesG2385, andG2532 toG1519 theG3588 brethrenG80. AndG2532 heG2532 departedG1831, andG2532 wentG1831 toG1519 anotherG2087 placeG5117. 18NowG1161 asG1722 soonG1722 asG1722 itG1161 wasG1510 dayG2250, thereG1510 wasG1510 noG3756 smallG3641 stir amongG1722 theG3588 soldiersG4757, whatG5101 wasG1510 becomeG1096 ofG2250 PeterG4074. 19AndG2532 whenG2532 HerodG2264 had soughtG1934 forG1519 himG846, andG2532 foundG2147 himG846 notG3361, heG2532 examinedG350 theG3588 guardsG5441, andG2532 commandedG2753 thatG846 theyG846 shouldG2532 beG2532 put toG1519 death. AndG2532 heG2532 wentG2718 downG2718 fromG575 Judaea toG1519 CaesareaG2542, andG2532 tarried thereG1161. 20NowG1161 heG2532 wasG1510 highly displeased withG4314 themG846 ofG1223 TyreG5183 andG2532 SidonG4606: andG2532 theyG846 cameG1223 withG4314 oneG3661 accordG3661 toG4314 himG846, andG2532, havingG3982 made BlastusG986 theG3588 king’sG935 chamberlain theirG846 friend, theyG846 askedG154 forG1223 peaceG1515, becauseG1223 theirG846 countryG5561 wasG1510 fedG5142 fromG575 theG3588 king’sG935 countryG5561. 21AndG2532 uponG1909 a set dayG2250 HerodG2264 arrayed himselfG1438 inG1909 royalG937 apparelG2066, andG2532 satG2523 onG1909 theG3588 throne, andG2532 made anG2532 oration unto themG846. 22AndG2532 theG3588 peopleG444 shoutedG2019, saying, TheG3588 voiceG5456 ofG2316 a godG2316, andG2532 notG3756 ofG2316 a manG444. 23AndG2532 immediatelyG3916 anG1325 angelG32 ofG2316 theG3588 LordG2962 smote himG846, becauseG473 heG2532 gaveG1325 notG3756 GodG2316 theG3588 gloryG1391: andG2532 heG2532 was eatenG4662 ofG2316 wormsG4662, andG2532 gaveG1325 upG1325 theG3588 ghost. 24ButG1161 theG3588 wordG3056 ofG3056 GodG2316 grewG837 andG2532 multipliedG4129. 25AndG2532 BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569 returnedG5290 fromG1537 JerusalemG2419, whenG2532 theyG2532 had fulfilledG4137 theirG2532 ministration, takingG4838 withG1537 them JohnG2491 whose surname was MarkG3138.
