27 The jailer woke up. He saw that the prison doors were open. He pulled out his sword and was going to kill himself. He thought the prisoners had escaped.
28 "Don't harm yourself!" Paul shouted. "We are all here!"
29 The jailer called out for some lights. He rushed in, shaking with fear. He fell down in front of Paul and Silas.
30 Then he brought them out. He asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"
31 They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus. Then you and your family will be saved."
32 They spoke the word of the Lord to him. They also spoke to all the others in his house.
33 At that hour of the night, the jailer took Paul and Silas and washed their wounds. Right away he and his whole family were baptized.
