1 Y EN el mismo tiempo el rey Herodes echó mano á maltratar algunos de la iglesia.

2 Y mató á cuchillo á Jacobo, hermano de Juan.

3 Y viendo que había agradado á los Judíos, pasó adelante para prender también á Pedro. Eran entonces los días de los ázimos.

4 Y habiéndole preso, púsole en la cárcel, entregándole á cuatro cuaterniones de soldados que le guardasen; queriendo sacarle al pueblo después de la Pascua.
