¹⁰And after they^* had passed the first and second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened for them by itself, and they went out and^* went forward along one narrow street, and at once the angel departed from him.

¹¹And when^* Peter came to himself, he said, “Now I know truly that the Lord has sent out his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and all that the Jewish people expected!”^e ¹²And when he^* realized this,^* he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John (who is also called Mark), where many people were gathered together and were praying. ¹³And when^* he knocked at the door of the gateway, a female slave named^f Rhoda came up to answer. ¹⁴And recognizing Peter’s voice, because of her^* joy she did not open the gate, but ran in and^* announced that Peter was standing at the gate. ¹⁵But they said to her, “You are out of your mind!” But she kept insisting^* it was so. And they kept saying,^* “It is his angel!” ¹⁶But Peter was continuing to knock, and when they^* opened the door^* they saw him and were astonished. ¹⁷But motioning to them with his^* hand to be silent, he related to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, “Report these things to James and to the brothers,” and he departed and^* went to another place.
