Acts 16 📜 📕 ↷
Conversion of the Jailer
25 And at mid-night Paul and Silas praying, did praise God. And they that were in prison, heard them.📜💬📚
26 But suddenly there was made a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And forthwith all the doors were opened: and the bands of all were loosed.📜💬📚
27 And the keeper of the prison waked out of his sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison opened, drawing out his sword, would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.📜💬📚
28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying: Do thy self no harm, for we are all here.📜💬📚
29 And calling for light, he went in, and trembling fell down to Paul and Silas at their feet:📜💬📚
30 and bringing them forth, he said: Masters, what must I do that I may be saved?📜💬📚
31 But they said: Believe in our Lord JESUS; and thou shalt be saved and thy house.📜💬📚
32 And they preached the word of our Lord to him with all that were in his house.📜💬📚
33 And he taking them in the same hour of the night, washed their wounds: and himself was baptized and all his house incontinent.📜💬📚
34 And when he had brought them into his own house, he laid the table for them, and rejoiced with all his house, believing God.📜💬📚
