New Testament

Acts 12:9-14 Modern English Version (MEV)

9. He went out and followed him, and did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.

10. When they had passed the first and the second guards, they came to the iron gate leading to the city, which opened to them by itself. And they went out and went forward one street. And immediately the angel left him.

11. When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I certainly know that the Lord has sent His angel and delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting.”

12. Realizing this, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John, whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together praying.

13. As Peter knocked at the door of the porch, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.

14. When she recognized Peter’s voice, from joy she did not open the door, but ran in and announced that Peter was standing at the door.
