Acts 12:18-20
New Matthew Bible
18 As soon as it was day, there was no little ado among the soldiers about what had become of Peter. 19 When Herod had called for him, but not found him, he examined the guards, and commanded them to depart. And he descended from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.
20 Now Herod had been displeased with the people of Tyre and Sidon. And they came all at once and made intercession to Blastus, the king’s chamberlain, and requested peace, because their country was supplied with food by the king’s land.
