希律王的暴行
12 那时，希律王下手残害教会的一些人， 2 杀了约翰的哥哥雅各。 3 他见这样做能取悦犹太人，便又在除酵节期间拘捕了彼得， 4 把他关在监里，由四班卫兵，每班四人轮流看守，想等逾越节[a]过后当众惩办他。 5 彼得被囚期间，教会都迫切地为他向上帝祷告。
彼得神奇出狱
6 在被希律提审前一夜，彼得被两条铁链锁着睡在两个卫兵中间，门外警卫森严。 7 忽然，有一位主的天使站在彼得身旁，监牢内一片光明，天使拍他的肋旁，把他叫醒，说：“赶快起来！”铁链就从他手上脱落下来。 8 天使对他说：“束上腰带，穿好鞋子。”彼得一一照办。天使又说：“披上外衣，跟我来！” 9 他跟着天使走出牢房，不知道这一切都是真的，还以为自己看到了异象。 10 他们一路穿过第一道和第二道守卫，来到通往城里的铁门，那门竟自动打开了。他们就出来，走过一条街之后，天使便离开了彼得。
11 彼得这才如梦初醒，说：“现在我确定，主派了天使来救我脱离希律的魔掌，不让犹太人的期望得逞。” 12 他清醒后，便到约翰·马可的母亲玛丽亚家，很多人正聚集在那里祷告。
13 彼得在外面敲门，有一个叫罗大的婢女出来应门。 14 她听出是彼得的声音，喜出望外，竟然没有开门就跑进去告诉大家：“彼得在门外！” 15 他们说：“你一定疯了。”她坚持说：“是真的！”他们就说：“是他的天使吧！”
16 彼得不住地敲门。他们开门看见他，都大吃一惊！ 17 彼得摆手示意他们安静，然后把主怎样领他出狱的经过告诉大家，又说：“把这事告诉雅各和其他弟兄姊妹。”交待完了，他便离开那里，往其他地方去了。
18 天亮后，监狱的守卫发现彼得不见了，顿时一片骚动。 19 希律派人四处搜捕，一无所获，于是亲自审问看守彼得的卫兵，下令处决他们。后来希律离开犹太，下到凯撒利亚，并住在那里。
希律的下场
20 希律对泰尔和西顿的人非常恼火。于是，他们联合起来去见他，先取得宫廷总管伯拉斯都的支持，然后向他求和，因为他们两地需要从他的辖区获得粮食。
21 到了约定的日子，希律穿上王袍，坐在宝座上向众人致词。 22 致词完毕，众人齐声高呼：“这是神明在说话，不是凡人在说话！” 23 希律没有把荣耀归给上帝，主的天使立刻惩罚他，他当场被虫子咬死了。
24 上帝的道日见兴旺，越传越广。
25 巴拿巴和扫罗把款项送到以后，就带着约翰·马可从耶路撒冷回去。

Martirio del apóstol Jacobo y encarcelamiento de Pedro
12 Por aquel tiempo el rey Herodes[a] echó mano a algunos que pertenecían a la iglesia para maltratarlos. 2 Hizo matar(A) a espada a Jacobo[b], el hermano de Juan(B).
3 Y viendo que esto agradaba a los judíos(C), hizo arrestar también a Pedro. Esto sucedió durante los días[c] de los Panes sin Levadura[d](D). 4 Habiéndolo arrestado, lo puso en la cárcel, entregándolo a cuatro grupos[e] de soldados(E) para que lo custodiaran, con la intención de llevarlo ante el pueblo después de la Pascua(F). 5 Así pues, Pedro era custodiado en la cárcel, pero la iglesia hacía oración ferviente a Dios por él.
6 Esa misma noche, cuando Herodes estaba a punto de venir a buscarlo, Pedro estaba durmiendo entre dos soldados, sujeto con dos cadenas(G); y unos guardias delante de la puerta custodiaban la cárcel. 7 De repente se le apareció(H) un ángel del Señor(I), y una luz brilló en la celda; y el ángel tocó a Pedro en el costado, y lo despertó diciéndole: «Levántate pronto». Y las cadenas se cayeron de las manos de Pedro(J). 8 «Vístete y ponte[f] las sandalias», le dijo* el ángel. Así lo hizo, y el ángel añadió: «Envuélvete en tu manto y sígueme».
9 Y saliendo, Pedro lo seguía, y no sabía que lo que hacía el ángel era de verdad, sino que creía ver una visión(K). 10 Cuando habían pasado la primera y la segunda guardia, llegaron a la puerta de hierro que conduce a la ciudad, la cual se les abrió(L) por sí misma. Entonces salieron y siguieron por una calle, y de repente el ángel se apartó de él. 11 Cuando Pedro volvió en sí(M), dijo: «Ahora sé en verdad que el Señor ha enviado a Su ángel, y me ha rescatado(N) de la mano de Herodes y de todo lo que esperaba el pueblo de los judíos».
12 Al darse cuenta de esto, fue a la casa de María, la madre de Juan, llamado también Marcos(O), donde muchos estaban reunidos y oraban(P). 13 Cuando llamó a la puerta de la entrada, una sirvienta(Q) llamada Rode salió a ver quién era[g]. 14 Al reconocer la voz de Pedro, de alegría(R) no abrió la puerta, sino que corrió adentro y anunció que Pedro estaba a la puerta. 15 «¡Estás loca!», le dijeron ellos. Pero ella insistía en que así era. Y ellos decían: «Es su ángel(S)».
16 Pero Pedro continuaba llamando; y cuando ellos abrieron, lo vieron y se asombraron. 17 Y haciéndoles señal con la mano(T) para que guardaran silencio, les contó cómo el Señor lo había sacado de la cárcel. Y les dijo: «Informen de estas cosas a Jacobo[h](U) y a los hermanos(V)». Entonces salió, y se fue a otro lugar.
18 Cuando se hizo de día, hubo un alboroto no pequeño entre los soldados sobre qué[i] habría sido de Pedro. 19 Herodes, después de buscarlo y no encontrarlo, interrogó a los guardias y ordenó que los llevaran para matarlos(W). Después de esto Herodes descendió de Judea a Cesarea(X), y se quedó allí por un tiempo.
Muerte de Herodes
20 Herodes estaba muy enojado con los de Tiro y de Sidón(Y). Pero ellos, de común acuerdo se presentaron ante él, y habiéndose ganado a Blasto, camarero del rey, pedían paz, pues su región era abastecida por el territorio del rey(Z). 21 El día señalado, Herodes, vestido con ropa real, se sentó en la tribuna y comenzó a hablarles. 22 Y la gente gritaba: «¡Voz de un dios y no de un hombre es esta!». 23 Al instante un ángel del Señor(AA) lo hirió, por no haber dado la gloria a Dios; y Herodes murió[j] comido de gusanos.
24 Pero la palabra del Señor crecía y se multiplicaba(AB).
25 Bernabé y Saulo(AC) regresaron de[k] Jerusalén después de haber cumplido su misión[l](AD), llevando consigo a Juan, llamado también Marcos(AE).

12 At that time Herod the king laid his hands on some of those of the assembly to do them hurt,
2 and slew James, the brother of John, with the sword.
3 And seeing that it was pleasing to the Jews, he went on to take Peter also: (and they were the days of unleavened bread:)
4 whom having seized he put in prison, having delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep, purposing after the passover to bring him out to the people.
5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison; but unceasing prayer was made by the assembly to God concerning him.
6 And when Herod was going to bring him forth, that night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and guards before the door kept the prison.
7 And lo, an angel of [the] Lord came there, and a light shone in the prison: and having smitten the side of Peter, he roused him up, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off his hands.
8 And the angel said to him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And he did so. And he says to him, Cast thine upper garment about thee and follow me.
9 And going forth he followed [him] and did not know that what was happening by means of the angel was real, but supposed he saw a vision.
10 And having passed through a first and second guard, they came to the iron gate which leads into the city, which opened to them of itself; and going forth they went down one street, and immediately the angel left him.
11 And Peter, being come to himself, said, Now I know certainly that [the] Lord has sent forth his angel and has taken me out of the hand of Herod and all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 And having become clearly conscious [in himself], he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John who was surnamed Mark, where were many gathered together and praying.
13 And when he had knocked at the door of the entry, a maid came to listen, by name Rhoda;
14 and having recognised the voice of Peter, through joy did not open the entry, but running in, reported that Peter was standing before the entry.
15 And they said to her, Thou art mad. But she maintained that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.
16 But Peter continued knocking: and having opened, they saw him and were astonished.
17 And having made a sign to them with his hand to be silent, he related [to them] how the Lord had brought him out of prison; and he said, Report these things to James and to the brethren. And he went out and went to another place.
18 And when it was day there was no small disturbance among the soldiers, what then was become of Peter.
19 And Herod having sought him and not found him, having examined the guards, commanded [them] to be executed. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea and stayed [there].
20 And he was in bitter hostility with [the] Tyrians and Sidonians; but they came to him with one accord, and, having gained Blastus the king's chamberlain, sought peace, because their country was nourished by the king's.
21 And on a set day, clothed in royal apparel and sitting on the elevated seat [of honour], Herod made a public oration to them.
22 And the people cried out, A god's voice and not a man's.
23 And immediately an angel of [the] Lord smote him, because he did not give the glory to God, and he expired, eaten of worms.
24 But the word of God grew and spread itself.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, having fulfilled the service [entrusted to them], taking also with them John, surnamed Mark.

Peter’s Miraculous Escape From Prison
12 It was about this time that King Herod(A) arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them. 2 He had James, the brother of John,(B) put to death with the sword.(C) 3 When he saw that this met with approval among the Jews,(D) he proceeded to seize Peter also. This happened during the Festival of Unleavened Bread.(E) 4 After arresting him, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after the Passover.(F)
5 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.(G)
6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains,(H) and sentries stood guard at the entrance. 7 Suddenly an angel(I) of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. “Quick, get up!” he said, and the chains fell off Peter’s wrists.(J)
8 Then the angel said to him, “Put on your clothes and sandals.” And Peter did so. “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me,” the angel told him. 9 Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision.(K) 10 They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself,(L) and they went through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him.
11 Then Peter came to himself(M) and said, “Now I know without a doubt that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me(N) from Herod’s clutches and from everything the Jewish people were hoping would happen.”
12 When this had dawned on him, he went to the house of Mary the mother of John, also called Mark,(O) where many people had gathered and were praying.(P) 13 Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer the door.(Q) 14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed(R) she ran back without opening it and exclaimed, “Peter is at the door!”
15 “You’re out of your mind,” they told her. When she kept insisting that it was so, they said, “It must be his angel.”(S)
16 But Peter kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astonished. 17 Peter motioned with his hand(T) for them to be quiet and described how the Lord had brought him out of prison. “Tell James(U) and the other brothers and sisters(V) about this,” he said, and then he left for another place.
18 In the morning, there was no small commotion among the soldiers as to what had become of Peter. 19 After Herod had a thorough search made for him and did not find him, he cross-examined the guards and ordered that they be executed.(W)
Herod’s Death
Then Herod went from Judea to Caesarea(X) and stayed there. 20 He had been quarreling with the people of Tyre and Sidon;(Y) they now joined together and sought an audience with him. After securing the support of Blastus, a trusted personal servant of the king, they asked for peace, because they depended on the king’s country for their food supply.(Z)
21 On the appointed day Herod, wearing his royal robes, sat on his throne and delivered a public address to the people. 22 They shouted, “This is the voice of a god, not of a man.” 23 Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel(AA) of the Lord struck him down,(AB) and he was eaten by worms and died.
24 But the word of God(AC) continued to spread and flourish.(AD)
Barnabas and Saul Sent Off
25 When Barnabas(AE) and Saul had finished their mission,(AF) they returned from[a] Jerusalem, taking with them John, also called Mark.(AG)
