Acts 12:12-19

12AndG5037 when he had consideredG4894 the thing, he cameG2064 toG1909 the houseG3614 of MaryG3137 the motherG3384 of JohnG2491, whose surname wasG1941 MarkG3138; whereG3757 manyG2425 wereG2258 gathered togetherG4867 prayingG2532G4336. 13AndG1161 as PeterG4074 knocked atG2925 the doorG2374 of the gateG4440, a maidG3814 cameG4334 to answerG5219, namedG3686 RhodaG4498.1 14AndG2532 when she knewG1921 Peter’sG4074 voiceG5456, she openedG455 notG3756 the gateG4440 forG575 gladnessG5479, butG1161 ran inG1532, and told thatG518 PeterG4074 stoodG2476 beforeG4253 the gateG4440. 15AndG1161 they saidG2036 toG4314 herG846, Thou art madG3105. ButG1161 she constantly affirmedG1340 that it wasG2192 even soG3779. ThenG1161 they saidG3004, It isG2076 hisG846 angelG32. 16ButG1161 PeterG4074 continuedG1961 knockingG2925: andG1161 when they had openedG455 the door, and sawG1492 himG846, they were astonishedG1839. 17ButG1161 he, beckoningG2678 to themG846 with the handG5495 to hold their peaceG4601, declaredG1334 to themG846 howG4459 the LordG2962 had broughtG1806 himG846 out ofG1537 the prisonG5438. AndG1161 he saidG2036, Go showG518 these thingsG5023 to JamesG2385, andG2532 to the brethrenG80. AndG2532 he departedG1831, and wentG4198 intoG1519 anotherG2087 placeG5117. 18NowG1161 as soon as it wasG1096 dayG2250, there wasG2258 noG3756 smallG3641 stirG5017 amongG1722 the soldiersG4757, whatG5101G686 was becomeG1096 of PeterG4074. 19AndG1161 whenG1934 HerodG2264 had sought forG1934 himG846, andG2532 found himG2147 notG3361, he examinedG350 the keepersG5441, and commandedG2753 that they should be put to deathG520. AndG2532 he went downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 toG1519 CaesareaG2542, and there abodeG1304.
