²⁴ When he heard this order, he put them far inside the ·jail [prison] and ·pinned [secured; fastened] their feet ·down between large blocks of wood [in stocks; ^Lin wood].

²⁵ About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing ·songs [hymns; praise songs] to God as the other prisoners listened. ²⁶ Suddenly, there was a ·strong [great; violent] earthquake that shook the foundation of the ·jail [prison].
