Peter Freed from Prison

5 Peter was therefore kept in prison, but1 constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church.  
6 And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were1 keeping the prison.  
7 Now behold, aan angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands.  
8 Then the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and tie on your sandals”; and so he did. And he said to him, “Put on your garment and follow me.”
9 So he went out and followed him, and adid not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought bhe was seeing a vision.  
10 When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, awhich opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.  
11 And when Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I know for certain that athe Lord has sent His angel, and bhas delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jewish people.”
