Acts 12:9 in Context — Acts 12

7 E eis que veio acima um anjo do Senhor, e uma luz brilhou na prisão; e tocando em Pedro em sua lateral, despertou-o, dizendo; Levanta-te, depressa!E as correntes caíram de suas mãos.

8 E o anjo lhe disse: Arruma-te, e amarra as tuas sandálias.E ele fez assim. E disse-lhe: Põe tua capa sobre ti, e segue-me.

9 E saindo, o seguia; e não sabia que era verdade o que se fazia pelo anjo, mas pensava que estava tendo alguma visão.

10 E ao passarem a primeira e a segunda guarda, chegaram à porta de ferro, que leva à cidade, a qual foi aberta por si mesma; e tendo saído, foram a uma rua, e logo o anjo partiu dele.

11 E tendo Pedro voltado a si, disse: Agora eu sei verdadeiramente que o Senhor enviou a seu anjo, e me livrou da mão de Herodes, e de toda a expectativa do povo dos judeus.
