Acts 12:1-6

1 And in the same time Herod the king sent power, to torment some men of the church. [+Forsooth in the same time, Herod the king sent hands, to torment some men of the church.]
2 And he slew by sword James, the brother of John.
3 And he saw that it pleased to the Jews, and cast to take also Peter; and the days of therf loaves were.
4 And when he had caught Peter, he sent him into prison; and betook him to four quaternions of knights, to keep him, and would after pask bring him forth to the people [willing after pask to bring him forth to the people].
5 And Peter was kept in prison; but prayer was made of the church without ceasing to God for him.
6 But when Herod should bring him forth, in that night Peter was sleeping betwixt two knights, and was bound with two chains [in that night, Peter was sleeping between two knights, bound with two chains]; and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
