12 Around that time, King Herod Agrippa used his power to mistreat some of the believers from the assembly, 2 and he had Yacob, the brother of Yohan, executed by the sword. 3 Then when he saw that it pleased the Jewish religious leaders, he went on to seize Peter during the Festival of Flat Bread. 4 After being arrested, Peter was put in prison where he was guarded by four squads of four soldiers each. After the Passover Feast, Herod planned to display Peter to the people, 5 but while he was being held in prison, those in the assembly were earnestly asking God to help him.
