37 As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he said to the commanding officer, |May I say something to you?| The officer replied, |Do you know Greek?

38 Then you're not that Egyptian who started a rebellion and led the four thousand men of the 'Assassins' into the wilderness some time ago?|

39 Paul answered, |I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of an important city. Please allow me to speak to the people.|
