18Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.
19When Herod had sought for him, and didn`t find him, he examined the guards, and commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
20Now Herod was highly displeased with those of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus, the king`s chamberlain, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king`s country for food.
21On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.
22The people shouted, "The voice of a god, and not of a man!"
23Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn`t give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms, and he died.
