1599 Geneva Bible
3 [a]And when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further, to take Peter also (then were the days of unleavened bread.)
4 [b]And when he had caught him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to be kept, intending after the Passover to bring him forth to the people.
5 [c]So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer was made of the Church unto God for him.
