Acts Chapter 12 - King James Strong Number Version

1
Now <G1161> about <G2596> that <G1565> time <G2540> Herod <G2264> the king <G0935> stretched forth <G1911> <G5627> [his] hands <G5495> to vex <G2559> <G5658> certain <G5100> of <G0575> the church <G1577>.
2
And <G1161> he killed <G0337> <G5627> James <G2385> the brother <G0080> of John <G2491> with the sword <G3162>.
3
And <G2532> because he saw <G1492> <G5631> it <G3754> pleased <G2076> <G5748> <G0701> the Jews <G2453>, he proceeded further <G4369> <G5639> to take <G4815> <G5629> Peter <G4074> also <G2532>. (Then <G1161> were <G2258> <G5713> the days <G2250> of unleavened bread <G0106>.)
4
And <G2532> when he had apprehended <G4084> <G5660> him, he put <G5087> <G5639> [him] in <G1519> prison <G5438>, and delivered <G3860> <G5631> [him] to four <G5064> quaternions <G5069> of soldiers <G4757> to keep <G5442> <G5721> him <G0846>; intending <G1014> <G5740> after <G3326> Easter <G3957> to bring <G0321> <G0000> him <G0846> forth <G0321> <G5629> to the people <G2992>.
5
Peter <G4074> <G3303> therefore <G3767> was kept <G5083> <G5712> in <G1722> prison <G5438>: but <G1161> prayer <G4335> was <G2258> <G5713> made <G1096> <G5740> without ceasing <G1618> of <G5259> the church <G1577> unto <G4314> God <G2316> for <G5228> him <G0846>.
6
And <G1161> when <G3753> Herod <G2264> would <G3195> <G5707> have brought <G4254> <G0000> him <G0846> forth <G4254> <G5721>, the same <G1565> night <G3571> Peter <G4074> was <G2258> <G5713> sleeping <G2837> <G5746> between <G3342> two <G1417> soldiers <G4757>, bound <G1210> <G5772> with two <G1417> chains <G0254>: and <G5037> the keepers <G5441> before <G4253> the door <G2374> kept <G5083> <G5707> the prison <G5438>.
7
And <G2532>, behold <G2400> <G5628>, the angel <G0032> of the Lord <G2962> came upon <G2186> <G5627> [him], and <G2532> a light <G5457> shined <G2989> <G5656> in <G1722> the prison <G3612>: and <G1161> he smote <G3960> <G5660> Peter <G4074> on the side <G4125>, and raised <G1453> <G0000> him <G0846> up <G1453> <G5656>, saying <G3004> <G5723>, Arise up <G0450> <G5628> quickly <G1722> <G5034>. And <G2532> his <G0846> chains <G0254> fell off <G1601> <G5627> from <G1537> [his] hands <G5495>.
8
And <G5037> the angel <G0032> said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> him <G0846>, Gird thyself <G4024> <G5669>, and <G2532> bind on <G5265> <G5669> thy <G4675> sandals <G4547>. And <G1161> so <G3779> he did <G4160> <G5656>. And <G2532> he saith <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, Cast <G4016> <G0000> thy garment <G2440> about <G4016> <G5640> thee <G4675>, and <G2532> follow <G0190> <G5720> me <G3427>.
9
And <G2532> he went out <G1831> <G5631>, and followed <G0190> <G5707> him <G0846>; and <G2532> wist <G1492> <G5715> not <G3756> that <G3754> it was <G2076> <G5748> true <G0227> which <G3588> was done <G1096> <G5740> by <G1223> the angel <G0032>; but <G1161> thought <G1380> <G5707> he saw <G0991> <G5721> a vision <G3705>.
10
When <G1161> they were past <G1330> <G5631> the first <G4413> and <G2532> the second <G1208> ward <G5438>, they came <G2064> <G5627> unto <G1909> the iron <G4603> gate <G4439> that leadeth <G5342> <G5723> unto <G1519> the city <G4172>; which <G3748> opened <G0455> <G5681> to them <G0846> of his own accord <G0844>: and <G2532> they went out <G1831> <G5631>, and passed on through <G4281> <G5627> one <G3391> street <G4505>; and <G2532> forthwith <G2112> the angel <G0032> departed <G0868> <G5627> from <G0575> him <G0846>.
11
And <G2532> when Peter <G4074> was come <G1096> <G5637> to <G1722> himself <G1438>, he said <G2036> <G5627>, Now <G3568> I know <G1492> <G5758> of a surety <G0230>, that <G3754> the Lord <G2962> hath sent <G1821> <G5656> his <G0848> angel <G0032>, and <G2532> hath delivered <G1807> <G5639> me <G3165> out of <G1537> the hand <G5495> of Herod <G2264>, and <G2532> [from] all <G3956> the expectation <G4329> of the people <G2992> of the Jews <G2453>.
12
And <G5037> when he had considered <G4894> <G5631> [the thing], he came <G2064> <G5627> to <G1909> the house <G3614> of Mary <G3137> the mother <G3384> of John <G2491>, whose surname was <G1941> <G5746> Mark <G3138>; where <G3757> many <G2425> were <G2258> <G5713> gathered together <G4867> <G5772> praying <G2532> <G4336> <G5740>.
13
And <G1161> as Peter <G4074> knocked at <G2925> <G5660> the door <G2374> of the gate <G4440>, a damsel <G3814> came <G4334> <G5627> to hearken <G5219> <G5658>, named <G3686> Rhoda <G4498>.
14
And <G2532> when she knew <G1921> <G5631> Peter's <G4074> voice <G5456>, she opened <G0455> <G5656> not <G3756> the gate <G4440> for <G0575> gladness <G5479>, but <G1161> ran in <G1532> <G5631>, and told how <G0518> <G5656> Peter <G4074> stood <G2476> <G5760> before <G4253> the gate <G4440>.
15
And <G1161> they said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> her <G0846>, Thou art mad <G3105> <G5736>. But <G1161> she constantly affirmed <G1340> <G5711> that it was <G2192> <G5721> even so <G3779>. Then <G1161> said they <G3004> <G5707>, It is <G2076> <G5748> his <G0846> angel <G0032>.
16
But <G1161> Peter <G4074> continued <G1961> <G5707> knocking <G2925> <G5723>: and <G1161> when they had opened <G0455> <G5660> [the door], and saw <G1492> <G5627> him <G0846>, <G2532> they were astonished <G1839> <G5627>.
17
But <G1161> he, beckoning <G2678> <G5660> unto them <G0846> with the hand <G5495> to hold their peace <G4601> <G5721>, declared <G1334> <G5662> unto them <G0846> how <G4459> the Lord <G2962> had brought <G1806> <G5627> him <G0846> out of <G1537> the prison <G5438>. And <G1161> he said <G2036> <G5627>, Go shew <G0518> <G5657> these things <G5023> unto James <G2385>, and <G2532> to the brethren <G0080>. And <G2532> he departed <G1831> <G5631>, and went <G4198> <G5675> into <G1519> another <G2087> place <G5117>.
18
Now <G1161> as soon as it was <G1096> <G5637> day <G2250>, there was <G2258> <G5713> no <G3756> small <G3641> stir <G5017> among <G1722> the soldiers <G4757>, what <G5101> <G0686> was become <G1096> <G5633> of Peter <G4074>.
19
And <G1161> when <G1934> <G0000> Herod <G2264> had sought for <G1934> <G5660> him <G0846>, and <G2532> found him <G2147> <G5631> not <G3361>, he examined <G0350> <G5660> the keepers <G5441>, and commanded <G2753> <G5656> that [they] should be put to death <G0520> <G5683>. And <G2532> he went down <G2718> <G5631> from <G0575> Judaea <G2449> to <G1519> Caesarea <G2542>, and [there] abode <G1304> <G5707>.
20
And <G1161> Herod <G2264> was <G2258> <G5713> highly displeased <G2371> <G5723> with them of Tyre <G5183> and <G2532> Sidon <G4606>: but <G1161> they came <G3918> <G5713> with one accord <G3661> to <G4314> him <G0846>, and <G2532>, having made <G3982> <G0000> Blastus <G0986> the king's <G0935> chamberlain <G1909> <G2846> their friend <G3982> <G5660>, desired <G0154> <G5710> peace <G1515>; because <G1223> their <G0846> country <G5561> was nourished <G5142> <G5745> by <G0575> the king's <G0937> [country].
21
And <G1161> upon a set <G5002> day <G2250> Herod <G2264>, arrayed <G1746> <G5671> in royal <G0937> apparel <G2066>, sat <G2523> <G5660> upon <G1909> his <G0846> throne <G0968>, and <G2532> made an oration <G1215> <G5707> unto <G4314> them <G0846>.
22
And <G1161> the people <G1218> gave a shout <G2019> <G5707>, [saying, It is] the voice <G5456> of a god <G2316>, and <G2532> not <G3756> of a man <G0444>.
23
And <G1161> immediately <G3916> the angel <G0032> of the Lord <G2962> smote <G3960> <G5656> him <G0846>, because <G0473> <G3739> he gave <G1325> <G5656> not <G3756> God <G2316> the glory <G1391>: and <G2532> he was <G1096> <G5637> eaten of worms <G4662>, and gave up the ghost <G1634> <G5656>.
24
But <G1161> the word <G3056> of God <G2316> grew <G0837> <G5707> and <G2532> multiplied <G4129> <G5712>.
25
And <G1161> Barnabas <G0921> and <G2532> Saul <G4569> returned <G5290> <G5656> from <G1537> Jerusalem <G2419>, when they had fulfilled <G4137> <G5660> [their] ministry <G1248>, and <G2532> took with them <G4838> <G5631> John <G2491>, whose surname was <G1941> <G5685> Mark <G3138>.
