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！」

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！”

保罗却说：“我们是罗马人，并没有定罪，他们竟在公众面前打了我们，又把我们下在监里；现在要私下赶我们出去吗？这不行！叫他们自己来领我们出去吧！”

保罗却说：“我们是罗马人，并没有定罪，他们竟在公众面前打了我们，又把我们下在监里；现在要私下赶我们出去吗？这不行！叫他们自己来领我们出去吧！”

保罗却说：“我们是罗马公民，他们不经审讯就当众打我们，又把我们关进牢里，现在却想偷偷打发掉我们吗？这样不行，叫他们亲自来领我们出去！”

保罗对他们说：“我们是罗马人，还没有定罪，他们就公开打我们，又放在监里；现在要私下赶我们出去吗？不行！他们应当亲自来，领我们出去！”

可是保罗对他们说：“我们是罗马公民，并没有被定罪，他们却当众打我们，把我们投进监狱。现在他们还要悄悄地把我们赶出去吗？当然不行！让他们亲自来领我们出去！”

保羅卻說：「我們是羅馬人，並沒有定罪，他們就在眾人面前打了我們，又把我們下在監裏，現在要私下攆我們出去嗎？這是不行的。叫他們自己來領我們出去吧！」

保羅卻說：「我們是羅馬人，並沒有定罪，他們竟在公眾面前打了我們，又把我們下在監裏；現在要私下趕我們出去嗎？這不行！叫他們自己來領我們出去吧！」

保羅卻說：「我們是羅馬人，並沒有定罪，他們竟在公眾面前打了我們，又把我們下在監裏；現在要私下趕我們出去嗎？這不行！叫他們自己來領我們出去吧！」

保羅對他們說：“我們是羅馬人，還沒有定罪，他們就公開打我們，又放在監裡；現在要私下趕我們出去嗎？不行！他們應當親自來，領我們出去！”

保羅卻對他們說：『我們本是羅馬人，又是沒受定罪的；他們在公眾面前打了我們，給下在監裏；如今要私下裏把我們攆出去啊？絕對不行！不，他們要親自來，領我們出去！』

可是保羅對他們說：「我們是羅馬公民，並沒有被定罪，他們卻當眾打我們，把我們投進監獄。現在他們還要悄悄地把我們趕出去嗎？當然不行！讓他們親自來領我們出去！」

保羅曰、我儕羅馬人也、未定罪、而於眾前扑之、且下獄、今欲私出我乎、必不可、宜自來、引我出也、

保羅曰、我亦羅馬赤子、未定擬、遽當眾前受僕下獄、今欲私出我乎、必不可、俟其自來引我出也、

保羅曰、我儕亦羅瑪人、未定罪、當眾前杖我、且下獄、今欲私出我乎、必不可、俟其自來引我出、

But Paul said to the officers:“ They beat us publicly without a trial, even though we are Roman citizens, and threw us into prison. And now do they want to get rid of us quietly? No! Let them come themselves and escort us out.”

But Paul replied to the officers.“ They beat us in public,” he said.“ We weren’t given a trial. And we are Roman citizens! They threw us into prison. And now do they want to get rid of us quietly? No! Let them come themselves and personally lead us out.”

But Paul said to them,“ They have beaten us publicly, 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.”

But Paul replied,“ They have publicly beaten us without a trial and put us in prison— and we are Roman citizens. So now they want us to leave secretly? Certainly not! Let them come themselves to release us!”

But Paul said to them,“ They beat us in public without a trial, although we are Roman citizens, and threw us in jail. And now are they going to send us away secretly? Certainly not! On the contrary, let them come themselves and escort us out.”

But Paul said to them,“ After beating us in public without due process— men who are Romans— they threw us into prison; and now they are releasing us secretly? No indeed! On the contrary, let them come in person and lead us out.”

But Paul said to them,“ They have beaten us openly, uncondemned 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.”

But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison; and do they now cast us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and bring us out.

But Paul said to them,“ They beat us in public without a trial, although we are Roman citizens, and threw us in jail. And now are they going to smuggle us out secretly? Certainly not! On the contrary, let them come themselves and escort us out!”

But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast[ us] into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.

But Paul said to the police officers,“ They had us beaten in public without a proper trial– even though we are Roman citizens– and they threw us in prison. And now they want to send us away secretly? Absolutely not! They themselves must come and escort us out!”

But Paul said to them,“ They have beaten us publicly without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison! Do they now release us secretly? No, most certainly, but let them come themselves and bring us out!”

他們把保羅綁起來正要鞭打，保羅問旁邊的百夫長：「未經定罪就拷打羅馬公民合法嗎？」百夫長一聽，立刻去稟告千夫長說：「你看該怎麼辦？這人是羅馬公民。」千夫長就來問保羅：「告訴我，你是羅馬公民嗎？」保羅說：「是的。」千夫長說：「我花了很多錢才當上羅馬公民！」保羅說：「我生來就是。」那些準備拷問保羅的士兵立刻退下了。千夫長也害怕起來，因為發現保羅是羅馬公民，他卻下令捆綁了保羅。

藉律例製造不幸的首領，豈能與你聯盟？

「聽著，我差你們出去，就好像使羊走進狼群一般。所以，你們要像蛇一樣機靈，像鴿子一樣馴良。

上帝站在天庭的會中，向眾神明宣佈祂的判決，說：「你們不秉公行義，偏袒惡人要到何時呢？（細拉）

他們在官長面前控告保羅和西拉，說：「這些是猶太人，竟擾亂我們的城市，宣揚我們羅馬人不可接受或實行的風俗。」於是，大家都一起攻擊他們，官長下令剝掉他們的衣服，杖打他們。他們被毒打一頓，又被關進監獄，官長命獄卒嚴密看守。獄卒接到命令後把他們關進內牢，雙腳上了枷鎖。

惡人未被追趕也逃竄，義人坦然無懼如雄獅。

王回宮後，整夜禁食，拒絕娛樂，無法入睡。次日黎明，王起來匆忙趕往獅子坑，

王說：「看啊，我見有四個人在火中走來走去，沒有被綁著，也沒有被燒傷，第四個人的面貌好像神明的兒子。」於是，尼布甲尼撒走近火窯的門，喊道：「至高上帝的僕人沙得拉、米煞、亞伯尼歌啊，出來吧，到這裡來吧。」沙得拉、米煞、亞伯尼歌便從火中出來。

你們做官長的主持公道嗎？你們的審判公正嗎？不，你們心中圖謀不義，你們在地上行兇作惡。
