A great earthquake at midnight; the jailer and his household are baptized

밤중에 큰 지진이 나고 간수와 그 권속이 세례를 받음

Acts 16:25–34: about midnight Paul and Silas are praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners are listening to them. Suddenly there is a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison are shaken; immediately all the doors are opened, and everyone’s bonds are loosened. The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, draws his sword and is about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped. But Paul cries with a loud voice, saying, “Don’t harm yourself, for we are all here!” The jailer calls for lights, springs in, falls down trembling before Paul and Silas, brings them out, and says, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They say, “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” They speak the word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his house. The jailer takes them the same hour of the night and washes their stripes, and is immediately baptized, he and all his household. He brings them up into his house and sets food before them, and rejoices greatly with all his household, having believed in God.
