Acts 19:35-40

35And when the city clerk had quieted the crowd, he said: “Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple guardian of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?

36Therefore, since these things cannot be denied, you ought to be quiet and do nothing rashly.

37For you have brought these men here who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess.

38Therefore, if Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a case against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them bring charges against one another.

39But if you have any other inquiry to make, it shall be determined in the lawful assembly.

40For we are in danger of being called in question for today’s uproar, there being no reason which we may give to account for this disorderly gathering.”
