5 Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.
6 The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.
7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side, and woke him up, saying, 'Stand up quickly!' His chains fell off from his hands.
8 The angel said to him, 'Get dressed and put on your sandals.' He did so. He said to him, 'Put on your cloak, and follow me.'
9 And he went out and followed him. He didn't know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
