Acts 16:25-32 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

25. And at midnight, Paul and Silas praying, praised God. And they that were in prison, heard them.

26. And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened, and the bands of all were loosed.

27. And the keeper of the prison, awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison open, drawing his sword, would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.

28. But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying: Do thyself no harm, for we all are here.

29. Then calling for a light, he went in, and trembling, fell down at the feet of Paul and Silas.

30. And bringing them out, he said: Masters, what must I do, that I may be saved?

31. But they said: Believe in the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

32. And they preached the word of the Lord to him and to all that were in his house.
