But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, Let those men go.
36
And the jailor reported the words to Paul, [saying], The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore come forth, and go in peace.
37
But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison; and do they now cast us out privily? Nay verily; but let them come themselves and bring us out.
38
And the sergeants reported these words unto the magistrates: and they feared when they heard that they were Romans;
39
and they came and besought them; and when they had brought them out, they asked them to go away from the city.

And they went out of the prison, and entered into [the house] of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
