Acts 16:26-36

²⁶Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's chains were unfastened.

²⁷The jailer was awakened from sleep and saw the open prison doors; he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, because he thought that the prisoners had escaped.

²⁸But Paul shouted with a loud voice, saying, “Do not harm yourself, because we are all here.”

²⁹The jailer called for lights and rushed in and, trembling for fear, fell down before Paul and Silas,

³⁰and brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

³¹They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your house.”

³²They spoke the word of the Lord to him, together with everyone in his house.

³³Then the jailer took them at the same hour of the night, and washed their wounds, and he and those in his entire house were baptized immediately.

³⁴Then as he brought Paul and Silas up into his house and he set food before them, he rejoiced greatly with those of his house, that he had believed in God.

³⁵Now when it was day, the magistrates sent word to the guards, saying, “Let those men go.”

³⁶The jailer reported the words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent word to me to let you go. Now therefore come out, and go in peace.”
