Acts 22:28-30
New Matthew Bible
28 And the captain answered, With a great sum I obtained this freedom. And Paul said, I was free born.
29 Then the soldiers who were to have examined him straightaway drew back from him. And the high captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, because he had bound him.
30 On the day following, because he wanted to know exactly what Paul was accused of by the Jews, the captain released him from his bonds, and commanded the high priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul and set him before them.
