22 The crowd joined in attacking them, and the magistrates tore the garments off them and gave orders to ^ebeat them with rods. 23 And when they had inflicted many blows upon them, they threw them into ^fprison, ordering the jailer to keep them safely.

37 But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men who are ^pRoman citizens, and have thrown us into prison; and do they now throw us out secretly? No! Let them come themselves and take us out.” 38 The police reported these words to the magistrates, and they were ^qafraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens. 39 So they came and apologized to them. And they took them out and ^rasked them to leave the city. 40 So they went out of the prison and visited Lydia. And when they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them and departed.
