36 And the keeper of the prison told these words to Paul, That the magistrates have sent, that ye be delivered; now therefore go ye out, and go ye in peace. (And the warden of the prison said to Paul, The magistrates have sent word, that ye should be released; and so now go out, and go thy way in peace.)
37 And Paul said to them, They sent us men of Rome into prison, that were beaten openly and uncondemned, and now privily they bring us out; not so (fast), but come they themselves, and deliver us out, (or no! let them come here themselves, and release us).
38 And the constables told these words to the magistrates; and they dreaded, for they heard that they were Romans, (or and they had great fear, when they learned that they were Romans).
