δεσμώτης in Scripture

Acts 27:1 And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus’ band. Acts 27:42 And the soldiers’ counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.
