Acts 16:33-40 ▼

33 And he took them at that hour of the night, and washed the blood from their stripes; and he was immersed, himself and all his, immediately.

34 And he brought them into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced, believing in God, with all his house.

35 But when it was day, the magistrates sent the lictors, saying: Release those men.

36 And the jailer told these words to Paul: The magistrates have sent to release you. Now, therefore, come out, and go in peace.

37 But Paul said to them: Having publicly scourged us uncondemned, us who are Romans, they threw us into prison: and do they now put us out secretly? No, verily: but let them come and lead us out.

38 And the lictors told these words to the magistrates: and they were alarmed when they heard that they were Romans;

39 and they came, and entreated them, and led them out, and requested them to depart from the city.

40 And having come out of the prison, they went into the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
