Acts 16:19-40
New International Version
19 When her owners realized that their hope of making money(A) was gone, they seized Paul and Silas(B) and dragged(C) them into the marketplace to face the authorities. 20 They brought them before the magistrates and said, “These men are Jews, and are throwing our city into an uproar(D) 21 by advocating customs unlawful for us Romans(E) to accept or practice.”(F)
22 The crowd joined in the attack against Paul and Silas, and the magistrates ordered them to be stripped and beaten with rods.(G) 23 After they had been severely flogged, they were thrown into prison, and the jailer(H) was commanded to guard them carefully. 24 When he received these orders, he put them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks.(I)
25 About midnight(J) Paul and Silas(K) were praying and singing hymns(L) to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. 26 Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken.(M) At once all the prison doors flew open,(N) and everyone’s chains came loose.(O) 27 The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped.(P) 28 But Paul shouted, “Don’t harm yourself! We are all here!”
29 The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.(Q) 30 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”(R)
31 They replied, “Believe(S) in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved(T)—you and your household.”(U) 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33 At that hour of the night(V) the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized.(W) 34 The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he(X) was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God—he and his whole household.
35 When it was daylight, the magistrates sent their officers to the jailer with the order: “Release those men.” 36 The jailer(Y) told Paul, “The magistrates have ordered that you and Silas be released. Now you can leave. Go in peace.”(Z)
37 But Paul said to the officers: “They beat us publicly without a trial, even though we are Roman citizens,(AA) and threw us into prison. And now do they want to get rid of us quietly? No! Let them come themselves and escort us out.”
38 The officers reported this to the magistrates, and when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were alarmed.(AB) 39 They came to appease them and escorted them from the prison, requesting them to leave the city.(AC) 40 After Paul and Silas came out of the prison, they went to Lydia’s house,(AD) where they met with the brothers and sisters(AE) and encouraged them. Then they left.

New International Version
11 Put on the full armor of God,(A) so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,(B) but against the rulers, against the authorities,(C) against the powers(D) of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.(E) 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God,(F) so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist,(G) with the breastplate of righteousness in place,(H) 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.(I) 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith,(J) with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.(K) 17 Take the helmet of salvation(L) and the sword of the Spirit,(M) which is the word of God.(N)
18 And pray in the Spirit(O) on all occasions(P) with all kinds of prayers and requests.(Q) With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying(R) for all the Lord’s people.

1 Corinthians 4:9-14
New International Version
9 For it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display at the end of the procession, like those condemned to die(A) in the arena. We have been made a spectacle(B) to the whole universe, to angels as well as to human beings. 10 We are fools for Christ,(C) but you are so wise in Christ!(D) We are weak, but you are strong!(E) You are honored, we are dishonored! 11 To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are in rags, we are brutally treated, we are homeless.(F) 12 We work hard with our own hands.(G) When we are cursed, we bless;(H) when we are persecuted,(I) we endure it; 13 when we are slandered, we answer kindly. We have become the scum of the earth, the garbage(J) of the world—right up to this moment.
