Atos 12 - Bíblia Online

E por aquele mesmo tempo o rei Herodes estendeu as mãos sobre alguns da igreja, para os maltratar; 
E matou à espada Tiago, irmão de João. 
E, vendo que isso agradara aos judeus, continuou, mandando prender também a Pedro. E eram os dias dos ázimos. 
E, havendo-o prendido, o encerrou na prisão, entregando-o a quatro quaternos de soldados, para que o guardassem, querendo apresentá-lo ao povo depois da páscoa. 
Pedro, pois, era guardado na prisão; mas a igreja fazia contínua oração por ele a Deus. 
E quando Herodes estava para o fazer comparecer, nessa mesma noite estava Pedro dormindo entre dois soldados, ligado com duas cadeias, e os guardas diante da porta guardavam a prisão. 
E eis que sobreveio o anjo do Senhor, e resplandeceu uma luz na prisão; e, tocando a Pedro na ilharga, o despertou, dizendo: Levanta-te depressa. E caíram-lhe das mãos as cadeias. 
E disse-lhe o anjo: Cinge-te, e ata as tuas alparcas. E ele assim o fez. Disse-lhe mais: Lança às costas a tua capa, e segue-me. 
E, saindo, o seguia. E não sabia que era real o que estava sendo feito pelo anjo, mas cuidava que via alguma visão. 
E, quando passaram a primeira e segunda guarda, chegaram à porta de ferro, que dá para a cidade, a qual se lhes abriu por si mesma; e, tendo saído, percorreram uma rua, e logo o anjo se apartou dele. 
E Pedro, tornando a si, disse: Agora sei verdadeiramente que o Senhor enviou o seu anjo, e me livrou da mão de Herodes, e de tudo o que o povo dos judeus esperava. 
E, considerando ele nisto, foi à casa de Maria, mãe de João, que tinha por sobrenome Marcos, onde muitos estavam reunidos e oravam. 
E, batendo Pedro à porta do pátio, uma menina chamada Rode saiu a escutar; 
E, conhecendo a voz de Pedro, de gozo não abriu a porta, mas, correndo para dentro, anunciou que Pedro estava à porta. 
E disseram-lhe: Estás fora de ti. Mas ela afirmava que assim era. E diziam: É o seu anjo. 
Mas Pedro perseverava em bater e, quando abriram, viram-no, e se espantaram. 
E acenando-lhes ele com a mão para que se calassem, contou-lhes como o Senhor o tirara da prisão, e disse: Anunciai isto a Tiago e aos irmãos. E, saindo, partiu para outro lugar. 
E, sendo já dia, houve não pouco alvoroço entre os soldados sobre o que seria feito de Pedro. 
E, quando Herodes o procurou e o não achou, feita inquirição aos guardas, mandou-os justiçar. E, partindo da Judéia para Cesaréia, ficou ali. 
E ele estava irritado com os de Tiro e de Sidom; mas estes, vindo de comum acordo ter com ele, e obtendo a amizade de Blasto, que era o camarista do rei, pediam paz; porquanto o seu país se abastecia do país do rei. 
E num dia designado, vestindo Herodes as vestes reais, estava assentado no tribunal e lhes fez uma prática. 
E o povo exclamava: Voz de Deus, e não de homem. 
E no mesmo instante feriu-o o anjo do Senhor, porque não deu glória a Deus e, comido de bichos, expirou. 
E a palavra de Deus crescia e se multiplicava. 
E Barnabé e Saulo, havendo terminado aquele serviço, voltaram de Jerusalém, levando também consigo a João, que tinha por sobrenome Marcos.

Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. 
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 
And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) 
And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. 
Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church to God for him. 
And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison. 
And, behold, the angel of the Lord came on him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. 
And the angel said to him, Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals. And so he did. And he said to him, Cast your garment about you, and follow me. 
And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision. 
When they were past the first and the second ward, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel departed from him. 
And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the LORD has sent his angel, and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews. 
And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying. 
And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to listen, named Rhoda. 
And when she knew Peter' voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate. 
And they said to her, You are mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel. 
But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished. 
But he, beckoning to them with the hand to hold their peace, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things to James, and to the brothers. And he departed, and went into another place. 
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter. 
And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there stayed. 
And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king' chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king' country. 
And on a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on his throne, and made an oration to them. 
And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man. 
And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost. 
But the word of God grew and multiplied. 
And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.
