使徒行傳 16:35-40
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
35 第二天早上，官長派差役來，說：「把他們放了。」 36 獄卒轉告保羅說：「官長下令釋放你們，現在你們可以平安地走了。」 37 保羅卻說：「我們是羅馬公民，他們不經審訊就當眾打我們，又把我們關進牢裡，現在卻想偷偷打發掉我們嗎？這樣不行，叫他們親自來領我們出去！」
38 差役回報官長。官長得知保羅和西拉都是羅馬公民，非常害怕， 39 連忙到獄中向他們道歉，領他們出監，又央求他們離開腓立比。 40 二人離開監獄，來到呂底亞家中，見了弟兄姊妹，勸勉一番之後，便離開了那裡。

Paul Refuses to Depart Secretly
35 And when it was day, the magistrates sent the [a]officers, saying, “Let those men go.”
36 So the keeper of the prison reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go. Now therefore depart, and go in peace.”
37 But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us openly, uncondemned (A)Romans, and have thrown us into prison. And now do they put us out secretly? No indeed! Let them come themselves and get us out.”
38 And the officers told these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans. 39 Then they came and pleaded with them and brought them out, and (B)asked them to depart from the city. 40 So they went out of the prison (C)and entered the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they encouraged them and departed.

English Standard Version
35 But when it was day, the magistrates sent the police, saying, “Let those men go.” 36 And the jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go. Therefore come out now and go in peace.” 37 But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly, (A)uncondemned, men who are Roman 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 (B)they were afraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens. 39 So they came and apologized to them. And they took them out and (C)asked them to leave the city. 40 So they went out of the prison and visited (D)Lydia. And when they had seen (E)the brothers, they encouraged them and departed.
