Acts 12:14-18 English Standard Version (ESV)

14. Recognizing Peter’s voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate.

15. They said to her, “You are out of your mind.” But she kept insisting that it was so, and they kept saying, “It is his angel!”

16. But Peter continued knocking, and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed.

17. But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place.

18. Now when day came, there was no little disturbance among the soldiers over what had become of Peter.
