Acts of the Apostles 12

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 And at the same time, Herod the king stretched forth his hands, to afflict some of the church.	1 Illo autem tempore, misit Herodes rex manus, ut affli geret quosdam deecclesia.
2 And he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.	2 Occidit autem Iacobum fratrem Ioannis gladio.
3 And seeing that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to take up Peter also. Now it was in the days of the Azymes.	3 Videns autem quiaplaceret Iudaeis, apposuit apprehendere et Petrum — erant autem dies Azymorum—
4 And when he had apprehended him, he cast him into prison, delivering him to four files of soldiers to be kept, intending, after the pasch, to bring him forth to the people.	4 quem cum apprehendisset, misit in carcerem tradens quattuor quaternionibusmilitum custodire eum, volens post Pascha producere eum populo.
5 Peter therefore was kept in prison. But prayer was made without ceasing by the church unto God for him.	5 Et Petrusquidem servabatur in carcere; oratio autem fiebat sine intermissione ab ecclesiaad Deum pro eo.
6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.	6 Cum autem producturus eum esset Herodes, in ipsa nocte eratPetrus dormiens inter duos milites vinctus catenis duabus, et custodes anteostium custodiebant carcerem.
7 And behold an angel of the Lord stood by him: and a light shined in the room: and he striking Peter on the side, raised him up, saying: Arise quickly. And the chains fell off from his hands.	7 Et ecce angelus Domini astitit, et lumenrefulsit in habitaculo; percusso autem latere Petri, suscitavit eum dicens: “Surge velociter! ”. Et ceciderunt catenae de manibus eius.
8 And the angel said to him: Gird thyself, and put on thy sandals. And he did so. And he said to him: Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.	8 Dixit autemangelus ad eum: “ Praecingere et calcea te sandalia tua! ”. Et fecit sic. Etdicit illi: “ Circumda tibi vestimentum tuum et sequere me! ”.
9 And going out, he followed him, and he knew not that it was true which was done by the angel: but thought he saw a vision.	9 Et exienssequebatur et nesciebat quia verum est, quod fiebat per angelum; aestimabatautem se visum videre.
10 And passing through the first and the second ward, they came to the iron gate that leadeth to the city, which of itself opened to them. And going out, they passed on through one street: and immediately the angel departed from him.	10 Transeuntes autem primam custodiam et secundam venerunt ad portam ferream,quae ducit ad civitatem, quae ultro aperta est eis, et exeuntes processeruntvicum unum, et continuo discessit angelus ab eo.
11 And Peter coming to himself, said: Now I know in very deed, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.	11 Et Petrus ad se reversusdixit: “ Nunc scio vere quia misit Dominus angelum suum et eripuit me de manuHerodis et de omni exspectatione plebis Iudaeorum ”.
12 And considering, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, who was surnamed Mark, where many were gathered together and praying.	12 Consideransque venitad domum Mariae matris Ioannis, qui cognominatur Marcus, ubi erant multicongregati et orantes.
13 And when he knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, whose name was Rhode.	13 Pulsante autem eo ostium ianuae, processit puella adaudiendum, nomine Rhode;
14 And as soon as she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but running in she told that Peter stood before the gate.	14 et ut cognovit vocem Petri, prae gaudio non aperuitianuam, sed intro currens nuntiavit stare Petrum ante ianuam.
15 But they said to her: Thou art mad. But she affirmed that it was so. Then said they: It is his angel.	15 At illidixerunt ad eam: “ Insanis! ”. Illa autem affirmabat sic se habere. Illiautem dicebant: “ Angelus eius est ”.
16 But Peter continued knocking. And when they had opened, they saw him, and were astonished.	16 Petrus autem perseverabat pulsans;cum autem aperuissent, viderunt eum et obstupuerunt.
17 But he beckoning to them with his hand to hold their peace, told how the Lord had brought him out of prison, and he said: Tell these things to James, and to the brethren. And going out, he went into another place.	17 Annuens autem eis manu,ut tacerent, enarravit quomodo Dominus eduxisset eum de carcere dixitque: “Nuntiate Iacobo ct fratribus haec ”. Et egressus abiit in alium locum.
18 Now when day was come, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.	18 Facta autem die, erat non parva turbatio inter milites, quidnam de Petrofactum esset.
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not; having examined the keepers, he commanded they should be put to death; and going down from Judea to Caesarea, he abode there.	19 Herodes autem, cum requisisset eum et non invenisset,interrogatis custodibus, iussit eos abduci; descendensque a Iudaea in Caesareamibi commorabatur.
20 And he was angry with the Tyrians and the Sidonians. But they with one accord came to him, and having gained Blastus, who was the king's chamberlain, they desired peace, because their countries were nourished by him.	20 Erat autem iratus Tyriis et Sidoniis; at illi unanimes venerunt ad eum et,persuaso Blasto, qui erat super cubiculum regis, postulabant pacem, eo quodaleretur regio eorum ab annona regis.
21 And upon a day appointed, Herod being arrayed in kingly apparel, sat in the judgment seat, and made an oration to them.	21 Statuto autem die, Herodes, vestitusveste regia, sedens pro tribunalicontionabatur ad eos;
22 And the people made acclamation, saying: It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.	22 populus autemacclamabat: “ Dei vox et non hominis! ”.
23 And forthwith an angel of the Lord struck him, because he had not given the honour to God: and being eaten up by worms, he gave up the ghost.	23 Confestim autem percussit eumangelus Domini, eo quod non dedisset gloriam Deo; et consumptus a vermibusexspiravit.
24 But the word of the Lord increased and multiplied.	24 Verbum autem Dei crescebat et multiplicabatur.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, having fulfilled their ministry, taking with them John, who was surnamed Mark.	25 Barnabas autem et Saulusreversi sunt in Ierusalem expleto ministerio, assumpto Ioanne, qui cognominatusest Marcus.
