Acts 16:38 in Context — Acts 16
36 E o carcereiro anunciou estas palavras a Paulo, [dizendo] : Os magistrados têm mandado vos soltar; portanto agora saí, e ide em paz.
37 Mas Paulo lhes disse: Eles nos açoitaram publicamente, e sem sermos sentenciados, sendo nós homens romanos, lançaram-nos na prisão, e agora nos lançam fora às escondidas? [Assim] não! Mas que eles mesmos venham e nos tirem.
38 E os guardas voltaram para dizer aos magistrados estas palavras; e eles temeram ao ouvirem que eram romanos.
39 E tendo vindo, rogaram-lhes; e tirando-os, pediram [-lhes] que saíssem da cidade.
40 E eles, tendo saído da prisão, entraram [na casa] de Lídia; e vendo aos irmãos, consolaram-lhes; e saíram.
