20 And Herod was fighting with violent animosity, with Tyrians and Sidonians: but they came unanimously to him, and having conciliated Blastus, him over the king's bed-chamber, they asked peace; for their country was nourished from the king's. 21 And upon a fixed day, Herod, having put on royal apparel, and having sat upon the judgment seat, harangued them. 22 And the people called aloud, The voice of God, and not of man. 23 And immediately the messenger of the Lord struck him, because he gave not the glory to God: and eaten by worms, he expired.
