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.
