THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Acts (Author Luke)

16:37But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.

16:38And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.

22:25And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?

22:26When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.

22:27Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.

22:28And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.

22:29Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.
