8 “Get dressed,” the angel told him, “and put on your sandals.” And he did so. “Wrap your cloak around you,” he told him, “and follow me.”
9 So he went out and followed, and he did not know that what took place through the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.
10 After they passed the first and second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went outside and passed one street, and immediately the angel left him.
11 Then Peter came to himself and said, “Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent His angel and rescued me from Herod’s grasp and from all that the Jewish people expected.”
12 When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John Mark, where many had assembled and were praying.
13 He knocked at the door in the gateway, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer.
14 She recognized Peter’s voice, and because of her joy, she did not open the gate but ran in and announced that Peter was standing at the gateway.
