Acts 16:35-39
16:35 At daybreak
the magistrates
sent their police officers,
saying, “Release those men.”
16:36 The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying,
“The magistrates have sent orders
to release you. So come out now and go in peace.”
16:37 But Paul said to the police officers,
“They had us beaten in public
without a proper trial
– even though we are Roman citizens
– and they threw us
in prison. And now they want to send us away
secretly? Absolutely not! They
themselves must come and escort us out!”
16:38 The police officers reported these words to the magistrates. They were frightened when they heard Paul and Silas
were Roman citizens
16:39 and came
and apologized to them. After
they brought them out, they asked them repeatedly
to leave the city.
