Acts 16:19-26
-
19 And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,
-
20 And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,
-
21 And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.
-
22 And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.
-
23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:
-
24 Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
-
25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.
-
26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.
