Acts 16:18-24
18NowG1161 she continued doingG4160 thisG3778 for manyG4183 daysG2250. But PaulG3972 was greatlyG1278 annoyedG1278, and he turnedG1994 and saidG3004 to the spiritG4151, “I commandG3853 you 1in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to comeG1831 outG1831 of her!” And it cameG1831 outG1831 at that veryG846 2momentG5610.
19But when her mastersG2962 sawG3708 that their hopeG1680 of 3profitG2039 was suddenly goneG1831, they seizedG1949 4PaulG3972 and SilasG4609 and 5draggedG1670 them into the marketplaceG58 beforeG1909 the authoritiesG758, 20and when they had broughtG4317 them to the chiefG4755 magistratesG4755, they saidG3004, “TheseG3778 menG444, JewsG2453 asG2453 theyG2453 areG2453, are causingG1613 our cityG4172 troubleG1613, 21and they 6are proclaimingG2605 customsG1485 that are not lawfulG1832 for us to acceptG3858 orG3761 to practiceG4160, since we are 7RomansG4514.” 22The crowdG3793 joinedG4911 inG4911 anG4911 attackG4911 againstG2596 them, and the chiefG4755 magistratesG4755 toreG4048 their 8robesG2440 offG4048 them and proceeded to orderG2753 9them to be 10beatenG4463 withG4463 rodsG4463. 23When they had struckG2007 them with manyG4183 blowsG4127, they threwG906 them into prisonG5438, commandingG3853 11the jailerG1200 to guardG5083 them securelyG806; 2412and he, having receivedG2983 suchG5108 a commandG3852, threwG906 them into the innerG2082 prisonG5438 and fastenedG805 their feetG4228 in 13the 14stocksG3586.
