Acts 16:18-24

18And this she did for manyG4183 daysG2250. But PaulG3972, being sore troubled, turnedG1994 and saidG3004 to the spiritG4151, I chargeG3853 thee in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to comeG1831 out of her. And it cameG1831 out that very hourG5610.

19But when her mastersG2962 sawG3708 that the hopeG1680 of their gain was goneG1831, they laid holdG1949 on PaulG3972 and SilasG4609, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulersG758, 20and when they had broughtG4317 them unto the magistrates, they saidG3004, These menG444, being JewsG2453, do exceedingly trouble our cityG4172, 21and set forth customsG1485 which it isG1510 not lawfulG1832 for us to receiveG3858, or to observe, beingG1510 RomansG4514. 22And the multitudeG3793 rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent their garmentsG2440 off them, and commandedG2753 to beat them with rodsG4463. 23And when they had laidG2007 manyG4183 stripes upon them, they castG906 them into prisonG5438, charging the jailor to keepG5083 them safely: 24who, having receivedG2983 such a chargeG3852, castG906 them into the inner prisonG5438, and made their feetG4228 fast in the stocks.
