* And suddenly there was (5633 ) a great earthquake , so that the foundations of the prison were shaken (5683 ): and immediately all the doors were opened (5681 ), and every ones bands were loosed (5681 ). * And the keeper of the prison awaking (5637 ) out of his sleep , and seeing (5631 ) the prison doors open (5772 ), he drew out (5671 ) his sword , and would (5707 ) have killed (5721 ) himself , supposing (5723 ) that the prisoners had been fled (5755 ). * But Paul cried (5656 ) with a loud voice , saying (5723 ), Do (5661 ) thyself no harm : for we are (5748 ) all here . * Then he called (5660 ) for a light , and sprang in (5656 ), and came (5637 ) trembling , and fell down before (5627 ) Paul and Silas , * And brought (5631 ) them out , and said (5713 ), Sirs , what must (5748 ) I do (5721 ) to be saved (5686 )? * And they said (5627 ), Believe (5657 ) on the Lord Jesus Christ , and thou shalt be saved (5701 ), and thy house . * And they spake (5656 ) unto him the word of the Lord , and to all that were in his house . * And he took (5631 ) them the same hour of the night , and washed (5656 ) their stripes ; and was baptized (5681 ), he and all his , straightway . * And when he had brought (5631 ) them into his house , he set meat before them (5656 ), and rejoiced (5662 ), believing (5761 ) in God with all his house . * And when it was (5637 ) day , the magistrates sent (5656 ) the serjeants , saying (5723 ), Let those men go (5657 ). * And the keeper of the prison told (5656 ) this saying to Paul , The magistrates have sent (5758 ) to let you go (5686 ): now therefore depart (5631 ), and go (5737 ) in peace . * But Paul said (5713 ) unto them , They have beaten (5660 ) us openly uncondemned , being (5723 ) Romans , and have cast (5627 ) us into prison ; and now do they thrust us out (5719 ) privily ? nay verily ; but let them come (5631 ) themselves and fetch us out (5628 ). * And the serjeants told (5656 ) these words unto the magistrates : and they feared (5675 ), when they heard (5660 ) that they were (5748 ) Romans . * And they came (5631 ) and besought (5656 ) them , and brought them out (5631 ), and desired (5707 ) them to depart out (5629 ) of the city . * And they went (5631 ) out of the prison , and entered (5627 ) into the house of Lydia : and when they had seen (5631 ) the brethren , they comforted (5656 ) them , and departed (5627 ).
