ACTS 16:37 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.”
They came and apologized to them and brought them out, and asked them to leave the city — the magistrates' apology (deomai, to beseech) and personal escort (exercises, to lead out) reverse the earlier violence, with the request to depart (chōreō ek tēs poleōs) attempting to remove the source of legal liability.
