Acts 12:19-21

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁹ When Herod had searched for him and could not find him, he examined the guards and ordered them to be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and stayed there.

The Death of Herod

²⁰ Now Herod^[a] was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. So they came to him in a body; and after winning over Blastus, the king’s chamberlain, they asked for a reconciliation, because their country depended on the king’s country for food. ²¹ On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat on the platform, and delivered a public address to them.
