Acts 16:37-40

37But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men who are Roman citizens, and have thrown us into prison; and do they now throw us out secretly? No! Let them come themselves and take us out."

38The police reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens.

39So they came and apologized to them. And they took them out and asked them to leave the city.

40So they went out of the prison and visited Lydia. And when they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them and departed.
