30. Then, leading them outside, the soher said, "Rabbotai, what is it necessary for me to do that I may come to Yeshu'at Eloheinu?"
31. And Moshiach's Shlichim said, "Have emunah in the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu Yehoshua, and you will come to Yeshu'at Eloheinu, you and your bais."
32. And they spoke to him the dvar Hashem together with all the ones in his bais.

34. After that he led them to tish in his bais, and he set before them okhel, and he with his whole bais had simcha gedolah that they had come to emunah in Hashem.
35. And in the boker, the magistrates sent the soterim (policemen), saying, "Release those men."
36. And the soher reported these words to Rav Sha'ul, saying, "The magistrates sent word that you may be released; now, therefore, go and depart in shalom." [SHOFETIM 18:6]

38. And the soterim reported these words to the magistrates, and the magistrates were afraid, hearing that Rav Sha'ul and Sila were both Roman citizens.
39. So the magistrates came, and entreated Rav Sha'ul and Sila, and brought them out, asking them to depart from the city.
