Acts 22:27-29

21st Century King James Version

²⁷ Then the chief captain came and said unto him, “Tell me, art thou a Roman?” And he said, “Yea.”

²⁸ And the chief captain answered, “With a great sum I obtained this freedom.” And Paul said, “But I was free born.”

²⁹ Then straightway those who should have examined him departed from him, and the chief captain also was afraid after he found out that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.
