34 Y llevándolos á su casa, les puso la mesa: y se gozó de que con toda su casa había creído á Dios.

35 Y como fué de día, los magistrados enviaron los alguaciles, diciendo: Deja ir á aquellos hombres.

36 Y el carcelero hizo saber estas palabras á Pablo: Los magistrados han enviado [á decir] que seáis sueltos: así que ahora salid, é id en paz.

37 Entonces Pablo les dijo: Azotados públicamente sin ser condenados, siendo hombres Romanos, nos echaron en la cárcel; y ¿ahora nos echan encubiertamente? No, de cierto, sino vengan ellos y sáquennos.

38 Y los alguaciles volvieron á decir á los magistrados estas palabras: y tuvieron miedo, oído que eran Romanos.
