21. On the appointed day Herod, wearing his royal robes, sat on his throne and delivered a public address to the people.
22. They shouted, “This is the voice of a god, not of a man.”
23. Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
24. But the word of God continued to spread and flourish.
25. When Barnabas and Saul had finished their mission, they returned from Jerusalem, taking with them John, also called Mark.
