27AndG1161 whenG5613 the sevenG2033 daysG2250 were almostG3195 endedG4931, the JewsG2453 which wereG3588 ofG575 AsiaG3588G773, when they sawG2300 himG846 inG1722 the templeG3588G2411, stirred upG4797 allG3956 the peopleG3588G3793, andG2532 laidG1911 handsG3588G5495 onG1909 himG846,

28Crying outG2896, MenG435 of IsraelG2475, helpG997: ThisG3778 isG1510 the manG3588G444, that teachethG1321 allG3956 men every whereG3837 againstG2596 the peopleG3588G2992, andG2532 the lawG3588G3551, andG2532 thisG3778 placeG3588G5117: andG5037 furtherG2089 broughtG1521 GreeksG1672 alsoG2532 intoG1519 the templeG3588G2411, andG2532 hath pollutedG2840 thisG3778 holyG40 placeG5117.

29(ForG1063 they hadG1510 seen beforeG4308 withG4862 himG846 inG1722 the cityG3588G4172 TrophimusG5161 an EphesianG2180, whomG3739 they supposedG3543 thatG3754 PaulG3588G3972 had broughtG1521 intoG1519 the templeG3588G2411.)

30AndG5037 allG3650 the cityG3588G4172 wasG1096 movedG2795, andG2532 the peopleG3588G2992 ran togetherG4890: andG2532 they tookG1949 PaulG3588G3972, and drewG1670 himG846 out ofG1854 the templeG3588G2411: andG2532 forthwithG2112 the doorsG3588G2374 were shutG2808.

31AndG1161 as they went aboutG2212 to killG615 himG846, tidingsG5334 came untoG305 the chief captainG3588G5506 of the bandG3588G4686, thatG3754 allG3650 JerusalemG2419 was in an uproarG4797.

32WhoG3739 immediatelyG1824 tookG3880 soldiersG4757 andG2532 centurionsG1543, and ran downG2701 untoG1909 themG846: andG1161 when they sawG3708 the chief captainG3588G5506 andG2532 the soldiersG3588G4757, they leftG3973 beatingG5180 of PaulG3588G3972.

33ThenG5119 the chief captainG3588G5506 came nearG1448, and tookG1949 himG846, andG2532 commandedG2753 him to be boundG1210 with twoG1417 chainsG254; andG2532 demandedG4441 whoG5101 he wasG1510, andG2532 whatG5101 he hadG1510 doneG4160.

34AndG1161 someG243 criedG994 one thingG5100, some anotherG243, amongG1722 the multitudeG3588G3793: andG1161 when he couldG1410 notG3361 knowG1097 the certaintyG804 forG1223 the tumultG3588G2351, he commandedG2753 himG846 to be carriedG71 intoG1519 the castleG3588G3925.

35AndG1161 whenG3753 heG846 cameG1096 uponG1909 the stairsG3588G304, so it wasG4819, that he was borneG941 ofG5259 the soldiersG3588G4757 forG1223 the violenceG3588G970 of the peopleG3588G3793.

36ForG1063 the multitudeG3588G4128 of the peopleG3588G2992 followed afterG190, cryingG2896, Away withG142 himG846.

37AndG5037 as PaulG3588G3972 wasG3195 to be ledG1521 intoG1519 the castleG3588G3925, he saidG3004 unto the chief captainG3588G5506, MayG1832 IG1473 speakG3004 untoG4314 theeG4771? WhoG5100 saidG5346, Canst thou speakG1097 GreekG1676?

38ArtG1510 notG3756 thouG4771 thatG3588 EgyptianG124, whichG3588 beforeG4253 theseG3778 daysG3588G2250 madest an uproarG387, andG2532 leddest outG1806 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048 four thousandG5070 menG435 that were murderersG3588G4607?

39ButG1161 PaulG3588G3972 saidG3004, IG1473 amG1510 a manG444 which am a JewG2453 of TarsusG5018, a city in CiliciaG3588G2791, a citizenG4177 ofG767 noG3756 meanG767 cityG4172: andG1161, I beseechG1189 theeG4771, sufferG2010 meG1473 to speakG2980 untoG4314 the peopleG3588G2992.

40AndG1161 when he had givenG2010 himG846 licenceG2010, PaulG3588G3972 stoodG2476 onG1909 the stairsG3588G304, and beckonedG2678 with the handG3588G5495 unto the peopleG3588G2992. AndG1161 when there was madeG1096 a greatG4183 silenceG4602, he spake untoG4377 them in the HebrewG3588G1446 tongueG1258, sayingG3004,
