Acts 16:19-24

19And her masters, seeing that the hope of their gains was gone, having seized Paul and Silas, dragged [them] into the market before the magistrates;

20and having brought them up to the praetors, said, These men utterly trouble our city, being Jews,

21and announce customs which it is not lawful for us to receive nor practise, being Romans.

22And the crowd rose up too against them; and the praetors, having torn off their clothes, commanded to scourge [them].

23And having laid many stripes upon them they cast [them] into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely;

24who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and secured their feet to the stocks.
