The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying,<n id="1" /> &#8220;The magistrates have sent orders<n id="2" /> to release you. So come out now and go in peace.&#8221;<n id="3" />

When the centurion<n id="1" /> heard this,<n id="2" /> he went to the commanding officer<n id="3" /> and reported it,<n id="4" /> saying, &#8220;What are you about to do?<n id="5" /> For this man is a Roman citizen.&#8221;<n id="6" />

<p class="bodytext">But when the son of Paul&#8217;s sister heard about the ambush,<n id="1" /> he came and entered<n id="2" /> the barracks<n id="3" /> and told Paul.

But someone came and reported to them, &#8220;Look! The men you put in prison are standing in the temple courts<n id="1" /> and teaching<n id="2" /> the people!&#8221;

When she recognized Peter&#8217;s voice, she was so overjoyed she did not open the gate, but ran back in and told<n id="1" /> them<n id="2" /> that Peter was standing at the gate.

They replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;We have received no letters from Judea about you, nor have any of the brothers come from there<n id="2" /> and reported or said anything bad about you.
