22And the multitude rose up together against them, and the magistrates having torn their garments from them, were commanding to beat [them] with rods,
23many blows also having laid upon them, they cast them to prison, having given charge to the jailor to keep them safely,
24who such a charge having received, did put them to the inner prison, and their feet made fast in the stocks.
25And at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were hearing them,
26and suddenly a great earthquake came, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, opened also presently were all the doors, and of all -- the bands were loosed;
27and the jailor having come out of sleep, and having seen the doors of the prison open, having drawn a sword, was about to kill himself, supposing the prisoners to be fled,
28and Paul cried out with a loud voice, saying, `Thou mayest not do thyself any harm, for we are all here.`
