¹Nang panahon ngang yaon ay iniunat ni Herodes ang kaniyang mga kamay upang pahirapan ang ilan sa iglesia.

¹At that time Herod the king laid his hands on some of those of the assembly to do them hurt,

²At pinatay niya sa tabak si Santiago na kapatid ni Juan.

²and slew James, the brother of John, with the sword.

³At nang makita niya na ito'y ikinatutuwa ng mga Judio, ay kaniya namang ipinagpatuloy na hulihin si Pedro. At noo'y mga araw ng mga tinapay na walang lebadura.

³And seeing that it was pleasing to the Jews, he went on to take Peter also: (and they were the days of unleavened bread:)

⁴At nang siya'y mahuli na niya, ay kaniyang inilagay siya sa bilangguan at siya'y ibinigay sa apat na tigaapat na kawal upang siya'y bantayan; na inaakalang siya'y iharap sa bayan pagkatapos ng Paskua.

⁴whom 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.

⁵Kaya nga't si Pedro ay iningatan sa bilangguan: datapuwa't ang iglesia ay maningas na dumalangin sa Dios patungkol sa kaniya.

⁵Peter therefore was kept in the prison; but unceasing prayer was made by the assembly to God concerning him.

⁶At nang siya'y malapit nang ilabas ni Herodes, nang gabi ring yaon ay natutulog si Pedro sa gitna ng dalawang kawal, na nagagapos ng dalawang tanikala: at ang mga bantay sa harap ng pintuan ay nangagbabantay ng bilangguan.

⁶And 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.

⁷At narito, tumayo sa tabi niya ang isang anghel ng Panginoon, at lumiwanag ang isang ilaw sa silid na kulungan: at tinapik si Pedro sa tagiliran, at siya'y ginising, na sinasabi, Magbangon kang madali. At nangalaglag ang kaniyang mga tanikala sa kaniyang mga kamay.

⁷And 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.

⁸At sinabi sa kaniya ng anghel, Magbigkis ka, at itali mo ang iyong mga pangyapak. At gayon ang ginawa niya. At sinabi niya sa kaniya. Isuot mo sa iyo ang damit mo, at sumunod ka sa akin.

⁸And 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.

⁹At siya'y lumabas, at sumunod; at hindi niya nalalaman kung tunay ang ginawa ng anghel kundi ang isip niya'y nakakita siya ng isang pangitain.

⁹And 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.

¹⁰At nang kanilang maraanan na ang una at ang pangalawang bantay, ay nagsirating sila sa pintuang-bakal na patungo sa bayan; na kusang nabuksan sa kanila: at sila'y nagsilabas, at nangagpatuloy sa isang lansangan; at pagdaka'y humiwalay sa kaniya ang anghel.

¹⁰And 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.

¹¹At nang si Pedro ay pagsaulian ng isip, ay kaniyang sinabi, Ngayo'y nalalaman kong sa katotohanan ay sinugo ng Panginoon ang kaniyang anghel at iniligtas ako sa kamay ni Herodes at sa buong pagasa ng bayan ng mga Judio.

¹¹And 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.

¹²At nang siya'y makapagnilay na, ay naparoon siya sa bahay ni Maria na ina ni Juan na may pamagat na Marcos; na kinaroroonan ng maraming nangagkakatipon at nagsisipanalangin.

¹²And 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.

¹³At nang siya'y tumuktok sa pintuang-daan, ay lumabas upang sumagot, ang isang dalagang nagngangalang Rode.

¹³And when he had knocked at the door of the entry, a maid came to listen, by name Rhoda;

¹⁴At nang makilala niya ang tinig ni Pedro, sa tuwa'y hindi niya binuksan ang pintuan, kundi nagtakbo sa loob, ipinagbigay-alam na nakatayo si Pedro sa harap ng pintuan.

¹⁴and having recognised the voice of Peter, through joy did not open the entry, but running in, reported that Peter was standing before the entry.

¹⁵At kanilang sinabi sa kaniya, Nauulol ka. Datapuwa't buong tiwala niyang pinatunayan na gayon nga. At kanilang sinabi, na yao'y kaniyang anghel.

¹⁵And they said to her, Thou art mad. But she maintained that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.

¹⁶Datapuwa't nanatili si Pedro nang pagtuktok: at nang kanilang buksan, ay nakita nila siya, at sila'y nangamangha.

¹⁶But Peter continued knocking: and having opened, they saw him and were astonished.

¹⁷Datapuwa't siya, nang mahudyatan sila ng kaniyang kamay na sila'y tumahimik, ay isinaysay sa kanila kung paanong inilabas siya ng Panginoon sa bilangguan. At sinabi niya, Ipagbigay-alam ninyo ang mga bagay na ito kay Santiago, at sa mga kapatid. At siya'y umalis, at napasa ibang dako.

¹⁷And 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.

¹⁸Nang maguumaga na ay hindi kakaunti ang kaguluhang nangyari sa mga kawal, tungkol sa kung anong nangyari kay Pedro.

¹⁸And when it was day there was no small disturbance among the soldiers, what then was become of Peter.

¹⁹At nang siya'y maipahanap na ni Herodes, at hindi siya nasumpungan, ay siniyasat niya ang mga bantay, at ipinagutos na sila'y patayin. At siya buhat sa Judea ay lumusong sa Cesarea, at doon tumira.

¹⁹And 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].

²⁰At galit na galit nga si Herodes sa mga taga Tiro at taga Sidon: at sila'y nangagkaisang pumaroon sa kaniya, at, nang makaibigan na nila si Blasto na katiwala ng hari, ay kanilang ipinamanhik ang pagkakasundo, sapagka't ang lupain nila'y pinakakain ng lupain ng hari.

²⁰And 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.

²¹At isang takdang araw ay nagsuot si Herodes ng damit-hari, at naupo sa luklukan, at sa kanila'y tumalumpati.

²¹And on a set day, clothed in royal apparel and sitting on the elevated seat [of honour], Herod made a public oration to them.

²²At ang bayan ay sumigaw, Tinig ng dios, at hindi ng tao.

²²And the people cried out, A god's voice and not a man's.

²³At pagdaka'y sinaktan siya ng isang anghel ng Panginoon, sapagka't hindi niya ibinigay ang kaluwalhatian sa Dios: at siya'y kinain ng mga uod, at nalagot ang hininga.

²³And immediately an angel of [the] Lord smote him, because he did not give the glory to God, and he expired, eaten of worms.

²⁴Datapuwa't lumago ang salita ng Dios at dumami.

²⁴But the word of God grew and spread itself.

²⁵At nagbalik na galing sa Jerusalem si Bernabe at si Saulo, nang maganap na nila ang kanilang ministerio, na kanilang isinama si Juan na may pamagat na Marcos.

²⁵And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, having fulfilled the service [entrusted to them], taking also with them John, surnamed Mark.
