* 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 ).
