'Captain' in the Bible

And as they spake unto the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,

Now when the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were much perplexed concerning them whereunto this would grow.

Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them, but without violence; for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.

And as they were seeking to kill him, tidings came up to the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in confusion.

And forthwith he took soldiers and centurions, and ran down upon them: and they, when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, left off beating Paul.

Then the chief captain came near, and laid hold on him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and inquired who he was, and what he had done.

And as Paul was about to be brought into the castle, he saith unto the chief captain, May I say something unto thee? And he said, Dost thou know Greek?

the chief captain commanded him be brought into the castle, bidding that he should be examined by scourging, that he might know for what cause they so shouted against him.

And when the centurion heard it, he went to the chief captain and told him, saying, What art thou about to do? for this man is a Roman.

And the chief captain came and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? And he said, Yea.

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

They then that were about to examine him straightway departed from him: and the chief captain also was afraid when he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.

And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the castle.

Now therefore do ye with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you, as though ye would judge of his case more exactly: and we, before he comes near, are ready to slay him.

And Paul called unto him one of the centurions, and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain; for he hath something to tell him.

So he took him, and brought him to the chief captain, and saith, Paul the prisoner called me unto him, and asked me to bring this young man unto thee, who hath something to say to thee.

And the chief captain took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, What is it that thou hast to tell me?

So the chief captain let the young man go, charging him, Tell no man that thou hast signified these things to me.

But the chief captain Lysias came, and with great violence took him away out of our hands,

But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, I will determine your matter.
