Acts 22:24-28

Murdock(i) 24 the Chiliarch gave orders, to carry him into the castle: and he commanded, that he should be examined with stripes; that he might know, for what cause they cried out against him. 25 And as they were stretching him with ropes, Paul said to the centurion who stood over him: Is it lawful for you to scourge a man, who is a Roman, and not yet found guilty? 26 And when the centurion heard it, he went to the Chiliarch, and said to him: What doest thou? For this man is a Roman. 27 And the Chiliarch came to him, and said to him: Tell me; Art thou a Roman? And he said to him: Yes. 28 The Chiliarch replied and said to him: With much money I acquired Roman citizenship. Paul said to him: And I was born in it.
