Bound to be scourged, Paul says he was born a Roman; the commanding officer is afraid
가죽줄로 매인 바울이 로마 사람이라 하니 천부장이 두려워함
Acts 22:22–29: they listen to Paul until he says that; then they lift up their voice and say, “Rid the earth of this fellow, for he isn’t fit to live!” As they cry out, throw off their cloaks, and throw dust into the air, the commanding officer commands Paul to be brought into the barracks, ordering him to be examined by scourging, that he might know for what crime they shouted against him like that. When they have tied him up with straps, Paul asks the centurion who stands by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and not found guilty?” When the centurion hears it, he goes to the commanding officer and tells him, “Watch what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman!” The commanding officer comes and asks Paul, “Tell me, are you a Roman?” Paul says, “Yes.” The commanding officer answers, “I bought my citizenship for a great price.” Paul says, “But I was born a Roman.” Immediately those who were about to examine Paul depart from him, and the commanding officer also is afraid when he realizes that Paul is a Roman, because he had bound him.

23As they cried out, threw off their cloaks, and threw dust into the air,
24the commanding officer commanded him to be brought into the barracks, ordering him to be examined by scourging, that he might know for what crime they shouted against him like that.
25When they had tied him up with straps, Paul asked the centurion who stood by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and not found guilty?”
26When the centurion heard it, he went to the commanding officer and told him, “Watch what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman!”
