Acts 12:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood near him,[a] and a light shone in the prison cell. And striking Peter’s side, he woke him up, saying, “Get up quickly!”[b] And his chains fell off of his[c] hands. 8 And the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and put on your sandals!” And he did so. And he said to him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me!” 9 And he went out and[d] was following him.[e] And he did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but was thinking he was seeing a vision.
