19But when her mastersG2962 sawG3708 that their hopeG1680 of 1profitG2039 was 2goneG1831, they seizedG1949 3PaulG3972 and SilasG4609 and 4draggedG1670 them into the marketG58 placeG58 beforeG1909 the authoritiesG758, 20and when they had broughtG4317 them to the chiefG4755 magistratesG4755, they saidG3004, “TheseG3778 menG444 are throwingG1613 our cityG4172 into confusionG1613, beingG5225 JewsG2453, 21and 5are proclaimingG2605 customsG1485 whichG3739 it is not lawfulG1832 for us to acceptG3858 orG3761 to observeG4160, beingG1510 6RomansG4514.” 22The crowdG3793 roseG4911 up togetherG4911 againstG2596 them, and the chiefG4755 magistratesG4755 toreG4048 their 7robesG2440 offG4048 them and proceeded to orderG2753 8them to be 9beatenG4463 with rodsG4463. 23When they had struckG2007 them with manyG4183 blowsG4127, they threwG906 them into prisonG5438, commandingG3853 10the jailerG1200 to guardG5083 them securelyG806; 2411and he, having receivedG2983 suchG5108 a commandG3852, threwG906 them into the innerG2082 prisonG5438 and fastenedG805 their feetG4228 in 12the 13stocksG3586.
