Acts 16:37-40

37ButG1161 PaulG3972 saidG5346 toG4314 the officers, “They beatG1194 usG1473 publiclyG1219 without a trialG178G444 and threwG906 us intoG1519 prisonG5438, even though we areG5225 Roman citizensG4514. AndG2532 nowG3568 do they want to send us awayG1544G1473 secretlyG2977? Absolutely notG3756G1063G235! Let them comeG2064 themselvesG846 and escort us outG1806G1473!”

38So theG3588 officersG4465 relayedG518 thisG3778 messageG4487 to theG3588 magistratesG4755, who were alarmedG5399 to hearG191 thatG3754 Paul and Silas wereG1510 Roman citizensG4514. 39They cameG2064 to appeaseG3870 themG846 andG2532 led them outG1806, requestingG2065 that they leaveG565G575 theG3588 cityG4172. 40After Paul and Silas cameG1831 out ofG575 theG3588 prisonG5438, they wentG1525 toG4314 Lydia’s houseG3588G3070 to seeG3708 theG3588 brothersG80 and encourageG3870 them. ThenG2532 they leftG1831 the city.
