Acts 16:19-24

19But when her masters saw that their hope of 1profit was 2gone, they seized 3Paul and Silas and 4dragged them into the market place before the authorities, 20and when they had brought them to the chief magistrates, they said, “These men are throwing our city into confusion, being Jews, 21and 5are proclaiming customs which it is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, being 6Romans.” 22The crowd rose up together against them, and the chief magistrates tore their 7robes off them and proceeded to order 8them to be 9beaten with rods. 23When they had struck them with many blows, they threw them into prison, commanding 10the jailer to guard them securely; 2411and he, having received such a command, threw them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in 12the 13stocks.
