Acts 22:28

And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.

The commanding officer answered, "I bought my citizenship for a great price." Paul said, "But I was born a Roman."

And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this citizenship. And Paul said, But I am `a Roman' born.

and the chief captain answered, `I, with a great sum, did obtain this citizenship;' but Paul said, `But I have been even born `so'.'

“I paid a high price for my citizenship,” said the commander. “But I was born a citizen,” Paul replied.
