Acts:22:22-30
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And they gave him audience (
5707 )
unto this word ,
and then lifted up (
5656 )
their voices ,
and said (
5723 ),
Away with (
5720 )
such a fellow from the earth :
for it is not fit (
5723 )
that he should live (
5721 ).
*
And as they cried out (
5723 ),
and cast off (
5723 )
their clothes ,
and threw (
5723 )
dust into the air ,
*
The chief captain commanded (
5656 )
him to be brought (
5745 )
into the castle ,
and bade (
5631 )
that he should be examined (
5745 )
by scourging ;
that he might know (
5632 )
wherefore they cried so against (
5707 )
him .
*
And as they bound (
5656 ) (
5625 ) (
5656 )
him with thongs ,
Paul said (
5627 )
unto the centurion that stood by (
5761 ),
Is it lawful (
5748 )
for you to scourge (
5721 )
a man that is a Roman ,
and uncondemned ?
*
When the centurion heard (
5660 )
that ,
he went (
5631 )
and told (
5656 )
the chief captain ,
saying (
5723 ),
Take heed (
5720 )
what thou doest (
5719 ) (
5721 ):
for this man is (
5748 )
a Roman .
*
Then the chief captain came (
5631 ),
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Tell (
5720 )
me ,
art (
5748 )
thou a Roman ?
He said (
5713 ),
Yea .
*
And the chief captain answered (
5662 ),
With a great sum obtained (
5662 )
I this freedom .
And Paul said (
5713 ),
But I was free born (
5769 ).
*
Then straightway they departed (
5627 )
from him which should (
5723 )
have examined (
5721 )
him :
and the chief captain also was afraid (
5675 ),
after he knew (
5631 )
that he was (
5748 )
a Roman ,
and because he had (
5713 )
bound (
5761 )
him .
*
On the morrow ,
because he would (
5740 )
have known (
5629 )
the certainty wherefore he was accused (
5743 )
of the Jews ,
he loosed (
5656 )
him from his bands ,
and commanded (
5656 )
the chief priests and all their council to appear (
5629 ),
and brought Paul down (
5631 ),
and set him (
5656 )
before them .
