Acts 22:24-29

24The chief captainG3588G5506 commandedG2753 himG846 to be broughtG71 intoG1519 the castleG3588G3925, and bade thatG3004 heG846 should be examinedG426 by scourgingG3148; thatG2443 he might knowG1921 whereforeG1223 they criedG2019 soG3779 against himG846.

25AndG1161 asG5613 they boundG4385 himG846 with thongsG3588G2438, PaulG3588G3972 saidG3004 untoG4314 the centurionG1543 thatG3588 stood byG2476, Is it lawfulG1832 for youG4771 to scourgeG3147 a manG444 that is a RomanG4514, andG2532 uncondemnedG178?

26WhenG1161 the centurionG3588G1543 heardG191 that, he wentG4334 and toldG518 the chief captainG3588G5506, sayingG3004, Take heedG3708 whatG5101 thou doestG4160: forG1063 thisG3778 manG444 isG1510 a RomanG4514.

27ThenG1161 the chief captainG3588G5506 cameG4334, and saidG3004 unto himG846, TellG3004 meG1473, artG1510 thouG4771 a RomanG4514? He saidG5346, YeaG3483.

28AndG5037 the chief captainG3588G5506 answeredG611, With a greatG4183 sumG2774 obtainedG2932 IG1473 thisG3778 freedomG3588G4174. AndG1161 PaulG3972 saidG5346, ButG1161 IG1473 wasG1080 free bornG1080.

29ThenG3767 straightwayG2112 they departedG868 fromG575 himG846 whichG3588 shouldG3195 have examinedG426 himG846: andG2532 the chief captainG3588G5506 alsoG1161 was afraidG5399, after he knewG1921 thatG3754 he wasG1510 a RomanG4514, andG2532 becauseG3754 he hadG1510 boundG1210 himG846.
