Acts 19:23-41

19:23

And
<1161> <2596>

the same
<1565>

time
<2540>

there arose
<1096> (5633)

no
<3756>

small
<3641>

stir
<5017>

about
<4012>

that way
<3598>_.

19:24

For
<1063>

a certain
<5100>

[man] named
<3686>

Demetrius
<1216>_,

a silversmith
<695>_,

which made
<4160> (5723)

silver
<693>

shrines
<3485>

for Diana
<735>_,

brought
<3930> (5710)

no
<3756>

small
<3641>

gain
<2039>

unto the craftsmen
<5079>_;

19:25

Whom
<3739>

he called together
<4867> (5660)

with the workmen
<2040>

of
<4012>

like occupation
<5108>_,

and
<2532>

said
<2036> (5627)_,

Sirs
<435>_,

ye know
<1987> (5736)

that
<3754>

by
<1537>

this
<5026>

craft
<2039>

we have
<2076> (5748)

our
<2257>

wealth
<2142>_.

19:26

Moreover
<2532>

ye see
<2334> (5719)

and
<2532>

hear
<191> (5719)_,

that
<3754>

not
<3756>

alone
<3440>

at Ephesus
<2181>_,

but
<235>

almost
<4975>

throughout all
<3956>

Asia
<773>_,

this
<3778>

Paul
<3972>

hath persuaded
<3982> (5660)

and turned away
<3179> (5656)

much
<2425>

people
<3793>_,

saying
<3004> (5723)

that
<3754>

they be
<1526> (5748)

no
<3756>

gods
<2316>_,

which
<3588>

are made
<1096> (5740)

with
<1223>

hands
<5495>_:

19:27

So
<1161>

that not
<3756>

only
<3440>

this
<5124>

our
<2254>

craft
<3313>

is in danger
<2793> (5719)

to be set
<2064> (5629)

at
<1519>

nought
<557>_;

but
<235>

also
<2532>

that the temple
<2411>

of the great
<3173>

goddess
<2299>

Diana
<735>

should be despised
<1519> <3762> <3049> (5683)_,

and
<1161> <2532>

her
<846>

magnificence
<3168>

should
<3195> (5721)

be destroyed
<2507> (5745)_,

whom
<3739>

all
<3650>

Asia
<773>

and
<2532>

the world
<3625>

worshippeth
<4576> (5736)_.

{set at nought: or, brought into disrepute, or, contempt}

19:28

And
<1161>

when they heard
<191> (5660)

[these sayings], they were
<1096> (5637)

full
<4134>

of wrath
<2372>_,

and
<2532>

cried out
<2896> (5707)_,

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

Great
<3173>

[is] Diana
<735>

of the Ephesians
<2180>_.

19:29

And
<2532>

the whole
<3650>

city
<4172>

was filled
<4130> (5681)

with confusion
<4799>_:

and
<5037>

having caught
<4884> (5660)

Gaius
<1050>

and
<2532>

Aristarchus
<708>_,

men of Macedonia
<3110>_,

Paul's
<3972>

companions in travel
<4898>_,

they rushed
<3729> (5656)

with one accord
<3661>

into
<1519>

the theatre
<2302>_.

19:30

And
<1161>

when
<1014> (0)

Paul
<3972>

would
<1014> (5740)

have entered
<1525> (5629)

in
<1519>

unto the people
<1218>_,

the disciples
<3101>

suffered
<1439> (5707)

him
<846>

not
<3756>_.

19:31

And
<1161> <2532>

certain
<5100>

of the chief of Asia
<775>_,

which were
<5607> (5752)

his
<846>

friends
<5384>_,

sent
<3992> (5660)

unto
<4314>

him
<846>_,

desiring
<3870> (5707)

[him] that he would
<1325> (0)

not
<3361>

adventure
<1325> (5629)

himself
<1438>

into
<1519>

the theatre
<2302>_.

19:32

Some
<243>

therefore
<3767> <3303>

cried
<2896> (5707)

one thing
<5100>_,

and some another
<243>_:

for
<1063>

the assembly
<1577>

was
<2258> (5713)

confused
<4797> (5772)_;

and
<2532>

the more part
<4119>

knew
<1492> (5715)

not
<3756>

wherefore
<5101> <1752>

they were come together
<4905> (5715)_.

19:33

And
<1161>

they drew
<4264> (5656)

Alexander
<223>

out of
<1537>

the multitude
<3793>_,

the Jews
<2453>

putting
<4261> (0)

him
<846>

forward
<4261> (5660) (5625) <4261> (5723)_.

And
<1161>

Alexander
<223>

beckoned
<2678> (5660)

with the hand
<5495>_,

and would
<2309> (5707)

have made his defence
<626> (5738)

unto the people
<1218>_.

19:34

But
<1161>

when they knew
<1921> (5631)

that
<3754>

he was
<2076> (5748)

a Jew
<2453>_,

all
<3956> <1096> (5633)

with
<1537>

one
<3391>

voice
<5456>

about
<5613>

the space
<1909>

of two
<1417>

hours
<5610>

cried out
<2896> (5723)_,

Great
<3173>

[is] Diana
<735>

of the Ephesians
<2180>_.

19:35

And
<1161>

when the townclerk
<1122>

had appeased
<2687> (5660)

the people
<3793>_,

he said
<5346> (5748)_,

[Ye] men
<435>

of Ephesus
<2180>_,

what
<5101> <1063>

man
<444>

is there
<2076> (5748)

that
<3739>

knoweth
<1097> (5719)

not
<3756>

how that the city
<4172>

of the Ephesians
<2180>

is
<5607> (5752)

a worshipper
<3511>

of the great
<3173>

goddess
<2299>

Diana
<735>_,

and
<2532>

of the [image] which fell down from Jupiter
<1356>_?

{a worshipper: Gr. the temple keeper}

19:36

Seeing
<5607> (5752)

then
<3767>

that these things
<5130>

cannot be spoken against
<368>_,

ye
<5209>

ought
<1163> (5752) <2076> (5748)

to be
<5225> (5721)

quiet
<2687> (5772)_,

and
<2532>

to do
<4238> (5721)

nothing
<3367>

rashly
<4312>_.

19:37

For
<1063>

ye have brought hither
<71> (5627)

these
<5128>

men
<435>_,

which are neither
<3777>

robbers of churches
<2417>_,

nor yet
<3777>

blasphemers
<987> (5723)

of your
<5216>

goddess
<2299>_.

19:38

Wherefore
<3303> <3767>

if
<1487>

Demetrius
<1216>_,

and
<2532>

the craftsmen
<5079>

which are with
<4862>

him
<846>_,

have
<2192> (5719)

a matter
<3056>

against
<4314>

any man
<5100>_,

the law
<60>

is open
<71> (5743)_,

and
<2532>

there are
<1526> (5748)

deputies
<446>_:

let them implead
<1458> (5720)

one another
<240>_.

{the law...: or, the court days are kept}

19:39

But
<1161>

if
<1487>

ye enquire
<1934> (5719)

any thing
<5100>

concerning
<4012>

other matters
<2087>_,

it shall be determined
<1956> (5701)

in
<1722>

a lawful
<1772>

assembly
<1577>_.

{lawful: or, ordinary}

19:40

For
<1063> <2532>

we are in danger
<2793> (5719)

to be called in question
<1458> (5745)

for
<4012>

this day's
<4594>

uproar
<4714>_,

there being
<5225> (5723)

no
<3367>

cause
<158>

whereby
<4012> <3739>

we may
<1410> (5695)

give
<591> (5629)

an account
<3056>

of this
<5026>

concourse
<4963>_.

19:41

And
<2532>

when he had
<2036> (0)

thus
<5023>

spoken
<2036> (5631)_,

he dismissed
<630> (5656)

the assembly
<1577>_.
