Saying, zThe prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing *without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.

Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.

ESV: “We found the prison securely locked and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them we found no one inside.”
