Acts 19:33-41
33TheG3588 JewsG2453 inG1537 theG3588 crowdG3793 pushedG4261 AlexanderG223 forward to explain himselfG4822, andG1161 he motioned for silenceG2678G3588G5495 so heG2309 could make his defenseG626 to theG3588 peopleG1218. 34ButG1161 when they realizedG1921 thatG3754 he wasG1510 a JewG2453, they all shouted in unisonG5456G1096G1520G1537G3956 forG1909 aboutG5613 twoG1417 hoursG5610: “GreatG3173 is ArtemisG735 of the EphesiansG2180!”
35FinallyG1161 theG3588 city clerkG1122 quietedG2687 theG3588 crowdG3793 and declaredG5346, “MenG435 of EphesusG2180, doesn’tG3756G1510 everyone knowG1097 thatG5101 theG3588 cityG4172 of EphesusG2180 isG1510 guardian of the templeG3511 of theG3588 greatG3173 ArtemisG735 andG2532 ofG3588 her image, which fell from heavenG1356? 36SinceG3767 these thingsG3778 areG1510 undeniableG368, youG4771 oughtG1510G1163 to beG5225 calmG2687 andG2532 not do anythingG3367G4238 rashG4312. 37ForG1063 you have broughtG71 theseG3778 men hereG435, though they have neitherG3777 robbed our templeG2417 norG3777 blasphemedG987 ourG1473 goddessG2316.
38SoG3767 ifG1487 DemetriusG1216 andG2532 his fellowG3588G4862G846 craftsmenG5079 haveG2192 a complaintG3056 againstG4314 anyoneG5100, the courtsG60 are openG71 andG2532 proconsulsG446 are availableG1510. Let them bring charges againstG1458 one anotherG240 there. 39ButG1161 ifG1487 you are seekingG1934 anythingG5100 beyond thisG4008, it must be settledG1956 inG1722 aG3588 legalG1772 assemblyG1577. 40ForG2532 we are in jeopardy ofG1063G2793 being chargedG1458 with riotingG4714 forG4012 today’sG4594 events, and we haveG5225G3739G3756G1410G591 noG3367 justificationG159G4012 to accountG3056 forG4012 thisG3778 commotionG4963.”
41After he had saidG2036 this, he dismissedG630 theG3588 assemblyG1577.
