25 But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. 26 Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s bonds were loosened. 27 The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, "Don’t harm yourself, for we are all here!"
29 He called for lights, sprang in, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas, 30 brought them out, and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"
31 They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household." 32 They spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house.
33 He took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes, and was immediately baptized, he and all his household. 34 He brought them up into his house and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly with all his household, having believed in God.
25 Mas pela meia-noite Paulo e Silas oravam e cantavam hinos a Deus, e os presos escutavam-nos.
26 Subitamente houve um grande terremoto, de modo que foram abalados os alicerces do cárcere; logo se abriram todas as portas, e foram soltas as correntes de todos.
27 Tendo acordado o carcereiro, e vendo abertas as portas da prisão, tirou da espada e ia suicidar-se, supondo que os presos haviam fugido.
28 Mas Paulo bradou em alta voz: Não te faças nenhum mal, porque todos estamos aqui.
29 O carcereiro, tendo pedido uma luz, saltou dentro da prisão e, tremendo, lançou-se aos pés de Paulo e de Silas
30 e, tirando-os para fora, perguntou-lhes: Senhores, que me é necessário fazer para me salvar?
31 Responderam eles: Crê no Senhor Jesus e serás salvo, tu e a tua casa.
32 Anunciaram-lhe a palavra de Deus, e a todos os que estavam em sua casa.
33 Ele, naquela mesma hora da noite, tomando-os consigo, lavou-lhes as feridas, e foi logo batizado, ele e todos os seus.
34 Fazendo-os subir para sua casa, deu-lhes de comer e alegrou-se muito com toda a sua casa, por haver crido em Deus.
