Acts 12
1 Nowe about that time, Herod the King stretched forth his hands to vexe certaine of the Church,
κατ εκεινον δε τον καιρον επεβαλεν ηρωδησ ο βασιλευσ τασ χειρασ κακωσαι τινασ των απο τησ εκκλησιασ
2 And he killed Iames the brother of Iohn with the sword.
ανειλεν δε ιακωβον τον αδελφον ιωαννου μαχαιρα
3 And when he sawe that it pleased the Iewes, he proceeded further, to take Peter also (then were the dayes of vnleauened bread.)
και ιδων οτι αρεστον εστιν τοισ ιουδαιοισ προσεθετο συλλαβειν και πετρον ησαν δε αι ημεραι των αζυμων
4 And when he had caught him, he put him in prison, and deliuered him to foure quaternions of souldiers to be kept, intending after the Passeouer to bring him foorth to the people.
ον και πιασασ εθετο εισ φυλακην παραδουσ τεσσαρσιν τετραδιοισ στρατιωτων φυλασσειν αυτον βουλομενοσ μετα το πασχα αναγαγειν αυτον τω λαω
5 So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer was made of ye Church vnto God for him.
ο μεν ουν πετροσ ετηρειτο εν τη φυλακη προσευχη δε ην εκτενησ γινομενη υπο τησ εκκλησιασ προσ τον θεον υπερ αυτου
6 And when Herod woulde haue brought him out vnto the people, the same night slept Peter betweene two souldiers, bound with two chaines, and the keepers before the doore, kept the prison.
οτε δε εμελλεν αυτον προαγειν ο ηρωδησ τη νυκτι εκεινη ην ο πετροσ κοιμωμενοσ μεταξυ δυο στρατιωτων δεδεμενοσ αλυσεσιν δυσιν φυλακεσ τε προ τησ θυρασ ετηρουν την φυλακην
7 And behold the Angel of the Lord came vpon them, and a light shined in the house, and he smote Peter on the side, and raysed him vp, saying, Arise quickely. And his chaines fell off from his handes.
και ιδου αγγελοσ κυριου επεστη και φωσ ελαμψεν εν τω οικηματι παταξασ δε την πλευραν του πετρου ηγειρεν αυτον λεγων αναστα εν ταχει και εξεπεσον αυτου αι αλυσεισ εκ των χειρων
8 And the Angel saide vnto him, Girde thy selfe, and binde on thy sandales. And so he did. Then he said vnto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
ειπεν τε ο αγγελοσ προσ αυτον περιζωσαι και υποδησαι τα σανδαλια σου εποιησεν δε ουτωσ και λεγει αυτω περιβαλου το ιματιον σου και ακολουθει μοι
9 So Peter came out and followed him, and knewe not that it was true, which was done by the Angel, but thought he had seene a vision.
και εξελθων ηκολουθει αυτω και ουκ ηδει οτι αληθεσ εστιν το γινομενον δια του αγγελου εδοκει δε οραμα βλεπειν
10 Nowe when they were past the first and the second watch, they came vnto the yron gate, that leadeth vnto the citie, which opened to them by it owne accord, and they went out, and passed through one streete, and by and by the Angel departed from him.
διελθοντεσ δε πρωτην φυλακην και δευτεραν ηλθον επι την πυλην την σιδηραν την φερουσαν εισ την πολιν ητισ αυτοματη ηνοιχθη αυτοισ και εξελθοντεσ προηλθον ρυμην μιαν και ευθεωσ απεστη ο αγγελοσ απ αυτου
11 And when Peter was come to himselfe, he said, Nowe I know for a trueth, that the Lord hath sent his Angel, and hath deliuered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the wayting for of the people of the Iewes.
και ο πετροσ γενομενοσ εν εαυτω ειπεν νυν οιδα αληθωσ οτι εξαπεστειλεν κυριοσ τον αγγελον αυτου και εξειλετο με εκ χειροσ ηρωδου και πασησ τησ προσδοκιασ του λαου των ιουδαιων
12 And as he considered the thing, he came to the house of Marie, the mother of Iohn, whose surname was Marke, where many were gathered together, and prayed.
συνιδων τε ηλθεν επι την οικιαν μαριασ τησ μητροσ ιωαννου του επικαλουμενου μαρκου ου ησαν ικανοι συνηθροισμενοι και προσευχομενοι
13 And when Peter knocked at the entrie doore, a maide came foorth to hearken, named Rhode,
κρουσαντοσ δε του πετρου την θυραν του πυλωνοσ προσηλθεν παιδισκη υπακουσαι ονοματι ροδη
14 But when she knew Peters voyce, she opened not the entrie doore for gladnesse, but ranne in, and tolde howe Peter stood before the entrie.
και επιγνουσα την φωνην του πετρου απο τησ χαρασ ουκ ηνοιξεν τον πυλωνα εισδραμουσα δε απηγγειλεν εσταναι τον πετρον προ του πυλωνοσ
15 But they said vnto her, Thou art mad. Yet she affirmed it constantly, that it was so. Then said they, It is his Angel.
οι δε προσ αυτην ειπον μαινη η δε διισχυριζετο ουτωσ εχειν οι δε ελεγον ο αγγελοσ αυτου εστιν
16 But Peter continued knocking, and when they had opened it, and sawe him, they were astonied.
ο δε πετροσ επεμενεν κρουων ανοιξαντεσ δε ειδον αυτον και εξεστησαν
17 And he beckened vnto them with the hand, to hold their peace, and told them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he saide, Goe shewe these things vnto Iames and to the brethren: and he departed and went into an other place.
κατασεισασ δε αυτοισ τη χειρι σιγαν διηγησατο αυτοισ πωσ ο κυριοσ αυτον εξηγαγεν εκ τησ φυλακησ ειπεν δε απαγγειλατε ιακωβω και τοισ αδελφοισ ταυτα και εξελθων επορευθη εισ ετερον τοπον
18 Nowe assoone as it was day, there was no small trouble among the souldiers, what was become of Peter.
γενομενησ δε ημερασ ην ταραχοσ ουκ ολιγοσ εν τοισ στρατιωταισ τι αρα ο πετροσ εγενετο
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded them to be led to be punished. And he went downe from Iudea to Cesarea, and there abode.
ηρωδησ δε επιζητησασ αυτον και μη ευρων ανακρινασ τουσ φυλακασ εκελευσεν απαχθηναι και κατελθων απο τησ ιουδαιασ εισ την καισαρειαν διετριβεν
20 Then Herod was angrie with them of Tyrus and Sidon, but they came all with one accord vnto him, and perswaded Blastus the Kings Chamberlaine, and they desired peace, because their countrey was nourished by the Kings land.
ην δε ο ηρωδησ θυμομαχων τυριοισ και σιδωνιοισ ομοθυμαδον δε παρησαν προσ αυτον και πεισαντεσ βλαστον τον επι του κοιτωνοσ του βασιλεωσ ητουντο ειρηνην δια το τρεφεσθαι αυτων την χωραν απο τησ βασιλικησ
21 And vpon a day appointed, Herod arayed himselfe in royall apparell, and sate on the iudgement seate, and made an oration vnto them.
τακτη δε ημερα ο ηρωδησ ενδυσαμενοσ εσθητα βασιλικην και καθισασ επι του βηματοσ εδημηγορει προσ αυτουσ
22 And the people gaue a shoute, saying, The voyce of God, and not of man.
ο δε δημοσ επεφωνει φωνη θεου και ουκ ανθρωπου
23 But immediatly the Angel of the Lord smote him, because he gaue not glorie vnto God, so that he was eaten of wormes, and gaue vp the ghost.
παραχρημα δε επαταξεν αυτον αγγελοσ κυριου ανθ ων ουκ εδωκεν δοξαν τω θεω και γενομενοσ σκωληκοβρωτοσ εξεψυξεν
24 And the worde of God grewe, and multiplied.
ο δε λογοσ του θεου ηυξανεν και επληθυνετο
25 So Barnabas and Saul returned from Hierusalem, when they had fulfilled their office, and tooke with them Iohn, whose surname was Marke.
βαρναβασ δε και σαυλοσ υπεστρεψαν εισ ιερουσαλημ πληρωσαντεσ την διακονιαν συμπαραλαβοντεσ και ιωαννην τον επικληθεντα μαρκον
