Acts 12:21 in Context — Acts 12
19 E quando Herodes o buscou, e não o achou, tendo investigado aos guardas, mandou que eles fossem levados [para serem mortos] . E partindo da Judeia para Cesareia, ficou [ali] .
20 E Herodes estava extremamente irritado com os de Tiro e de Sidom; porém eles, vindo em concordância até ele, e persuadindo a Blasto, que era o camareiro do rei, pediram paz, porque a terra deles dependia dos alimentos da terra do rei [Herodes] .
21 E num dia marcado, Herodes vestiu roupas reais, e sentando no tribunal, fez-lhes um discurso.
22 E o povo exclamava: Voz de deus, e não de homem!
23 E no mesmo instante um anjo do Senhor o feriu, porque ele não deu a glória a Deus; e tendo sido comido por vermes, deixou de respirar.
