Acts 22:28 in Context — Acts 22
26 E o centurião, tendo ouvido [isto] ,foi e avisou ao comandante, dizendo: Olha o que estás a ponto de fazer, porque este homem é romano.
27 E o comandante, tendo se aproximado, disse-lhe: Dize-me, tu és romano?E ele disse: Sim.
28 E o comandante respondeu: Eu com muita soma [de dinheiro] obtive esta cidadania [romana] .E Paulo disse: E eu [a tenho] desde que nasci.
29 Então logo se afastaram dele aqueles que estavam para interrogá-lo; e até o comandante teve temor, ao entender que [Paulo] era romano, e que tinha o atado.
30 E no[dia] seguinte, querendo saber corretamente a causa de por que ele era acusado pelos judeus, ele o soltou das correntes, e mandou vir aos chefes dos sacerdotes e todo o supremo conselho deles; e tendo trazido a Paulo, apresentou [-o] diante deles.
