28cryingG2896 out, “MenG435 of IsraelG2475, comeG997 to our aidG997! 1ThisG3778 is the manG444 who preachesG1321 to allG3956 menG3956 everywhereG3836 againstG2596 our peopleG2992 and the LawG3551 and thisG3778 placeG5117; and besidesG2089 he has evenG2532 broughtG1521 GreeksG1672 into the templeG2413 and has 2defiledG2840 thisG3778 holyG40 placeG5117.”

29For they had previouslyG4308 seenG4308 3TrophimusG5161 the 4EphesianG2180 in the cityG4172 with him, and they supposedG3543 that PaulG3972 had broughtG1521 him into the templeG2413.

30ThenG2532 allG3650 the cityG4172 was provokedG2795, and 5the peopleG2992 rushedG4890 togetherG4890, and takingG1949 holdG1949 of PaulG3972 they 6draggedG1670 him out of the templeG2413, and immediatelyG2112 the doorsG2374 were shutG2808.

31While they were seekingG2212 to killG615 him, a reportG5334 cameG305 up to the 7commanderG5506 of the 8Roman 9cohortG4686 that allG3650 JerusalemG2419 was in confusionG4797.
