25 Or sulla mezzanotte Paolo e Sila, pregando, cantavano inni a Dio; e i carcerati li ascoltavano.
26 E ad un tratto, si fece un gran terremoto, talché la prigione fu scossa dalle fondamenta; e in quellistante tutte le porte si apersero, e i legami di tutti si sciolsero.
27 Il carceriere, destatosi, e vedute le porte della prigione aperte, tratta la spada, stava per uccidersi, pensando che i carcerati fossero fuggiti.
28 Ma Paolo gridò ad alta voce: Non ti far male alcuno, perché siam tutti qui.
29 E quegli, chiesto un lume, saltò dentro, e tutto tremante si gettò ai piedi di Paolo e di Sila;
30 e menatili fuori, disse: Signori, che debbo io fare per esser salvato?
31 Ed essi risposero: Credi nel Signor Gesù, e sarai salvato tu e la casa tua.
32 Poi annunziarono la parola del Signore a lui e a tutti coloro che erano in casa sua.
33 Ed egli, presili in quellistessa ora della notte, lavò loro le piaghe; e subito fu battezzato lui con tutti i suoi.
34 E menatili su in casa sua, apparecchiò loro la tavola, e giubilava con tutta la sua casa, perché avea creduto in Dio.
25 And at midnight Paul and Silas, in praying, were praising God with singing, and the prisoners listened to them.
26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison shook, and all the doors were immediately opened, and the bonds of all loosed.
27 And the jailor being awakened out of his sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison opened, having drawn a sword was going to kill himself, thinking the prisoners had fled.
28 But Paul called out with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm, for we are all here.
29 And having asked for lights, he rushed in, and, trembling, fell down before Paul and Silas.
30 And leading them out said, Sirs, what must I do that I may be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy house.
32 And they spoke to him the word of the Lord, with all that were in his house.
33 And he took them the same hour of the night and washed {them} from their stripes; and was baptised, he and all his straightway.
34 And having brought them into his house he laid the table {for them}, and rejoiced with all his house, having believed in God.
