Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
προαγαγεῖν αὐτὸν
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὅτε δὲ ἤμελλεν προσαγαγεῖν αὐτὸν ὁ Ἡρῴδης τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ ἦν ὁ Πέτρος κοιμώμενος μεταξὺ δύο στρατιωτῶν δεδεμένος ἁλύσεσιν δυσίν φύλακές τε πρὸ τῆς θύρας ἐτήρουν τὴν φυλακήν)
Here, the word translated to bring him out is slightly different from the word translated that same way in 12:4. It means to put someone on trial, and the implications, based on the fact that Herod saw that it pleased the Jewish leaders when he executed James, are that Herod planned to execute Peter after this trial. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [to put Peter on trial and then execute him]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
δεδεμένος ἁλύσεσιν δυσίν
/having_been/_bound ˱with˲_chains two
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [with two chains binding him]
12:6-19 God, through an angel, led Peter out, reunited him with his praying friends, and sent him out to carry on the work of spreading the Good News. The message advanced despite determined opposition.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
