of John

with the sword

And

because he saw

pleased

 

the Jews

he proceeded further

to take

And

Peter

were

(Then

the days

 

of unleavened bread

 

And

when he had apprehended

him he put

him in

prison

and delivered

him to four

quaternions

of soldiers

to keep

him

intending

after

 

Easter

the same

was

 

Peter

sleeping

between

two

soldiers

bound

chains

the keepers

and

before

 

the door

kept

 

the prison

And

behold

the angel

of the Lord

came upon

And

a light

shined

in

 

the prison

he smote

and

 

on the side

 

Peter

and raised

him

saying

Arise up

in

 

And

fell off

him

from

 

his hands

said

And

 

the angel

unto

him

Gird thyself

And

bind on

 

sandals

thee

he did

And

so

And

he saith

him

Cast

 

thy garment

thee

And

follow

me

And

he went out

and followed

him

And

not

wist

that

true

it was

which

was done

by

which

the angel

thought

but

a vision

he saw

they were past

When

the first

ward

and

the second

they came

unto

 

gate

 

the iron

 

that leadeth

unto

 

the city

which

of his own accord

opened

him

and

they went out

and passed on through

street

 

and

forthwith

departed

 

the angel

from

him

And

 

when Peter

was come

to

himself

he said

Now

I know

of a surety

that

hath sent

the Lord

 

angel

 

And

hath delivered

me

out of

the hand

of Herod

And

from all

 

the expectation

 

of the people

 

of the Jews

when he had considered

And

the thing he came

to

 

the house

of Mary

 

the mother

of John

 

whose surname was

Mark

where

were

many

gathered together

praying

 

knocked at

And

 

as Peter

 

the door

 

of the gate

came

a damsel

to hearken

named

Rhoda

And

when she knew

Peter

for

 

gladness

not

she opened

 

the gate

ran in

but

and told how

stood

 

Peter

before

 

the gate

 

And

unto

her

they said

Thou art mad

 

And

she constantly affirmed

even so

that it was

 

And

said they

 

angel

her

It is

 

But

Peter

continued

knocking

when they had opened

But

the door and saw

him

 

they were astonished

he beckoning

And

him

 

with the hand

to hold their peace

declared

him

how

 

the Lord

him

had brought

out of

 

the prison

he said

And

Go shew

unto James

And

 

to the brethren

these things

And

he departed

and went

into

another

place

as soon as it was

Now

And

 

Herod

highly displeased

with them of Tyre

and

Sidon

with one accord

And

they came

to

him

And

the people

And

smote

him

the angel

of the Lord

because

 

not
