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. 27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and 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 Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to 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, straightway. 34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.

25 Aga keskööl palvetasid Paulus ja Siilas ning kiitsid lauldes Jumalat. Ja vangid kuulsid neid.

26 Siis äkitselt sündis suur maavärisemine, nii et vangihoone alused vabisesid; ja sedamaid läksid kõik uksed lahti, ka kõikide köidikud pääsesid valla.

27 Kui nüüd vangihoidja unest ärkas ja nägi vangitorni uksed avatud olevat, tõmbas ta mõõga ja tahtis enesele otsa teha, sest ta mõtles, et vangid on ära karanud.

28 Aga Paulus hüüdis suure häälega ning ütles: „Ära tee enesele kurja, sest me oleme kõik siin!"

29 Siis ta küsis tuld, kargas sisse, heitis värisedes Pauluse ja Siilase ette maha,

30 tõi nad ka välja ning ütles: „Isandad, mis ma pean tegema, et ma õndsaks saaksin?"

31 Aga nemad ütlesid: „Usu Issandasse Jeesusesse, siis saad õndsaks sina ja su pere!"

32 Ja nad kuulutasid temale Issanda sõna ja kõigile, kes olid tema kojas.

33 Tema võttis nad sel öötunnil enese juurde ja pesi nende haavad. Ja ta ristiti sedamaid ja kõik tema pere.

34 Siis ta viis nad oma kotta, tõi toitu lauale ja oli väga rõõmus, et ta kogu oma perega oli saanud usklikuks Jumalasse.
