25 O půlnoci pak Pavel a Sílas modléce se, zpívali písničky o Bohu, takže je slyšeli i jiní vězňové.

26 A vtom pojednou země třesení stalo se veliké, až se pohnuli gruntové žaláře, a hned se jim všecky dveře otevřely a všech okovové spadli.

27 I procítiv strážný žaláře a vida dveře žaláře otevřené, vytrhl meč, aby se zabil, domnívaje se, že vězňové utekli.

28 I zkřikl naň Pavel hlasem velikým, řka: Nečiň sobě nic zlého, však jsme teď všickni.

29 A požádav světla, vběhl k nim, a třesa se, padl k nohám Pavlovým a Sílovým.

30 I vyved je ven, řekl: Páni, co já mám činiti, abych spasen byl?

31 A oni řekli: Věř v Pána Ježíše a budeš spasen ty i dům tvůj.

32 I mluvili jemu slovo Páně, i všechněm, kteříž byli v domu jeho.

33 A on pojav je v tu hodinu v noci, umyl rány jejich. I pokřtěn jest hned on i všecka čeled jeho.

34 A když je uvedl do domu svého, připravil jim stůl, a veselil se, že jest se vším domem svým uvěřil Bohu.

25 But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns unto God, and the prisoners were listening to them; 26 and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison-house were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened; and every one’s bands were loosed. 27 And the jailor, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 And he called for lights and sprang in, and, trembling for fear, fell down before Paul and Silas, 30 and brought them out and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy house. 32 And they spake the word of the Lord unto him, with all that were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately. 34 And he brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his house, having believed in God.
