< Acts 12 >

1 Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.
At that [very] now time put forth Herod the king the hands to mistreat some of those of the church.
2 He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.
He executed then James the brother of John with the sword.
3 When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.
(and *k) Having seen (now *no) that pleasing it is to the Jews, he proceeded to take also Peter — these were now (the *no) days of the Unleavened [Bread] —
4 When he had arrested him, he put him in prison and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.
whom also having seized he put in prison having delivered [him] to four sets of four soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring out him to the people.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
Indeed therefore Peter was kept in the prison; prayer however was (fervently *N+kO) being made by the church to God (concerning *N+kO) him.
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
When then was about (to bring forth *N+k+o) him Herod, in the night that [one] was Peter sleeping between two soldiers bound with chains two, guards also before the door were watching the prison.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.
And behold an angel of [the] Lord stood by and a light shone in the cell; Having struck then the side of Peter he woke up him saying; do rise up with speed. And fell of him the chains off the hands.
8 The angel said to him, “Get dressed and put on your sandals.” He did so. He said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
Said (then *N+kO) the angel to him; (do dress yourself *N+KO) and do yourself put on the sandals of you. He did and so. And he says to him; do yourself wrap around the cloak of you and do follow me.
9 And he went out and followed him. He didn’t know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
And having gone forth he was following (him; *k) and not did know that real is what is happening through the angel, he was thinking however a vision to see.
10 When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
Having passed through then a first guard and a second they came to the gate iron which is leading into the city, which by itself (opened *N+kO) to them, And having gone out they went on through street one and immediately departed the angel from him.
11 When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”
And Peter to himself having come said; Now I know truly that has sent forth (the *no) Lord the angel of Him and delivered me out of [the] hand of Herod and all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was called Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.
Having considered [it] also he came to the house of Mary the mother of John who is called Mark, where were many gathered together and praying.
13 When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
When was knocking then (he *N+KO) [at] the door of the gate came a girl to answer named Rhoda;
14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she didn’t open the gate for joy, but ran in and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.
And having recognized the voice of Peter from joy not she opened the gate having run in but she reported to have been standing Peter before the gate.
15 They said to her, “You are crazy!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.”
And to her they said; You rave. But she was insisting [it] so to be. And they were saying; The angel it is of him.
16 But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him and were amazed.
But Peter was continuing knocking; having opened [it] then they saw him and were amazed.
17 But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.
Having made a sign then to them with the hand to be silent, he related to them how the Lord him had brought out of the prison; He said (then; *N+kO) do report to James and to the brothers these things. And having gone out he went to another place.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
When was coming now day there was disturbance no small among the soldiers what then [of] Peter has become.
19 When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
Herod then having sought after him and not having found [him] having examined the guards he commanded [them] to be led away [to death], And having gone down from Judea to Caesarea he was staying [there].
20 Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.
He was now (Herod *K) furiously angry with [the] Tyrians and Sidonians; with one accord then they were coming to him And having gained Blastus who [was] over the bedchamber of the king they were seeking peace, because of being nourished their region by the king’s.
21 On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
On the appointed now day Herod having put on apparel royal and having sat on the throne was making an address to them.
22 The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
And the people were crying out; Of a god [this is the] voice and not of a man!
23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.
Immediately then struck him an angel of [the] Lord in return for that not he gave the glory to God, and having been eaten by worms he breathed his last.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
But the word (of God *NK+O) was continuing to grow and was being multiplied.
25 Barnabas and Saul returned to Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their service, also taking with them John who was called Mark.
Barnabas then and Saul returned (to *N+KO) Jerusalem having fulfilled the mission, having taken with [them] (and *k) John the [one] having been called Mark.
