16:37 保罗却说，我们是罗马人，并没有定罪，他们就在众人面前打了我们，又把我们下在监里。现在要私下撵我们出去吗？这是不行的。叫他们自己来领我们出去吧。
16:38 And the police gave an account of these words to the authorities, and they were full of fear on hearing that they were Romans;
16:38 差役把这话回禀官长。官长听见他们是罗马人，就害怕了。
16:39 Then they came and made prayers to them, requesting them, when they had taken them out, to go away from the town.
