guard him; intending after Pesach to bring him out to the
people.
5 Kepha therefore was kept in prison: but tefillah was
made without ceasing by the congregation of Yisrael to
vuvh for him.
6 And when Herod would have brought him out, the same
night Kepha was sleeping between two soldiers, bound
with two chains: and the guards in front of the door
guarded the prison.
7 And, see, the heavenly malach of the Master vuvh came
upon him, and a light shone in the prison: and he touched
Kepha on the side, and raised him up, saying, Rise up
quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 And the heavenly malach said to him, Gird yourself,
and tie your sandals. And so he did. And he said to him,
Cast your garment around you, and follow me.
9 And he went out, and followed him; and did not know
that it was real which was done by the heavenly malach;
but thought he saw a vision.
10 When they were past the first and the second guard
posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city;
which opened to them on its own accord: and they went
out, and passed on through one street; and at once the
heavenly malach departed from him.
11 And when Kepha had come to himself, he said, Now I
know for sure, that the Master vuvh has sent His heavenly
malach, and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod,
and from all the expectation of the people among the
unbelieving Yahudim.
12 And when he had realized this, he came to the bayit of
Miryam the eema of Yochanan, whose surname was
Moshe-Markus; where many were gathered together
making tefillah.
13 And as Kepha knocked at the door of the gate, a young
girl came to listen, named Rhoda.
14 And when she knew Kepha’s voice, she did not open
the gate due to uncontrollable simcha, but ran in, and told
how Kepha stood outside the gate.
15 And they said to her, You are meshugas. But she
constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then they said, It
is his heavenly malach.
16 But Kepha continued knocking: and when they had
opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.
17 But he, beckoning to them with the hand to be quiet,
declared to them how the Master vuvh had brought him
out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things to
Yaakov, and to the Yisraelite brothers. And he departed,
and went into another place.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir
among the soldiers, about what had become of Kepha.
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him
not, he questioned the guards, and commanded that they
should be put to death. And he went down from Yahudah
to Caesarea, and stayed there.
20 And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tsor
and Tzidon: but they came with one accord to him, and,
having made Blastus the melech’s officer their chaver,
desired shalom; because their country was nourished by
the melech’s country.
21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel,
sat upon his kesay, and made a verbal address to them.
22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of
a mighty one, and not of a man.

23 And immediately the heavenly malach of the Master
vuvh killed him, because he gave not vuvh the tifereth:
and he was eaten by worms, and gave up the ruach.
24 But the word of vuvh grew and multiplied.
25 And Bar-Nava and Shaul returned from
Yahrushalayim, when they had fulfilled their service, and
took with them Yochanan, whose surname was Moshe-
Markus.
13
Now there were in the congregation of Yisrael that
was at Antioch certain neviim and morim; as Bar-Nava,
and Shimeon that was called Niger, 5312 and Lucius of
Cyrene, and Manachem, who had been brought up with
Herod the tetrarch, and Shaul.
2 As they made tefillah and fasted to vuvh, the Ruach
Hakodesh said, Appoint for Me Bar-Nava and Shaul for
the work for which I have called them. 5313
3 Then having fasted and prayed, and having laid hands
on them, they sent them away.
4 So they, being sent out by the Ruach Hakodesh,
departed to Seleukia; and from there they sailed to
Cyprus.
5 And when they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the
word of vuvh in the synagogues of the Yahudim: and they
had also Yochanan-Moshe-Markus with them.
6 And when they had gone through the island to Paphos,
they found a certain sorcerer, a false navi, a Yahudi,
whose name was Bar-Yeshua: 5314
7 Who was with the deputy of the country, Sergeus
Paulus, a wise man; who called for Bar-Nava and Shaul,
and desired to hear the word of tvkt.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by
interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the
deputy from the emunah.
9 Then Shaul, who also is called Paul, filled with the
Ruach Hakodesh, set his eyes on him,
10 And said, O full of all deceit and all mischief, you
child of the devil, you enemy of all tzedakah, will you not
cease to pervert the right halachot of the Master vuvh?
11 And now, see, the hand of the Master vuvh is upon
you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a
season. 5315 And immediately there fell on him a mist and
darkness; and he went about seeking someone to lead him
by the hand.
12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done,
believed, being astonished at the Torah of the Master
vuvh.
13 Now when Shaul and his company left from Paphos,
they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and Yochanan Moshe-
Mark departed from them and returned to Yahrushalayim.
14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to
Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the
Shabbat, and sat down. 5316
15 And after the reading of the Torah parsha and the
haftarah, the rulers of the synagogue sent for them,
saying, Men and Yisraelite brothers, if you have any word
of exhortation for the people, go ahead and say it.
16 Then Shaul stood up, and beckoning with his hand
said, Men of Yisrael, and you that fear tvkt, 5317 pay
attention!
17 The tvkt of this people of Yisrael chose our ahvot,
and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the
