Acts 12:18-20
New American Standard Bible 1995
18 Now when day came, there was no small disturbance among the soldiers as to [a]what could have become of Peter. 19 When Herod had searched for him and had not found him, he examined the guards and ordered that they (A)be led away to execution. Then he went down from Judea to (B)Caesarea and was spending time there.
Death of Herod
20 Now he was very angry with the people of (C)Tyre and Sidon; and with one accord they came to him, and having won over Blastus the king’s chamberlain, they were asking for peace, because (D)their country was fed by the king’s country.
