Acts 16:23-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ The soldiers hit Paul and Silas many times. Then they took hold of them and they pushed them into the prison. The officers said to the prison guard, ‘Lock the prison door carefully so that these men cannot get free.’

²⁴ The prison guard did what he had been told to do. He put Paul and Silas in a room in the middle of the prison. He put their feet between big heavy pieces of wood so that they could not move their legs.

²⁵ At midnight, Paul and Silas were praying. They were also singing songs to praise God. The other people in the prison were listening to them.
