“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 openly and condemned being Romans and have cast us into prison and now they trust us out privily. Nay, verily. But let them come themselves and fetch us out.”
