A Translation of the New Testament from the original Greek: Humbly Attempted with a View to Assist the Unlearned with Clearer and More Explicit Views of the Mind of the Spirit in the Scriptures of Truth
Haweis, Thomas
Bible. New Testament
(35)Then the recorder having quieted the multitude, said, Men of
Ephesus, who indeed is the man that doth not know that the city of the
Ephesians is wholly devoted to the great goddess Diana, and to the
image which fell down from Jupiter? (36)These things being then
incontrovertible, it becomes you to be quiet, and to do nothing with
precipitation. (37)For ye have brought hither these men, neither
robbers of the temple, nor blasphemers of your goddess. (38)If then
indeed Demetrius and the artificers that are with him have a charge
against any man, the courts are held, and there are proconsuls: let
them implead one another. (39)And if ye have any dispute about other
matters, it shall be terminated in a lawful assembly, (40)For we are
even in danger of being called to account for this day's insurrection,
there being no cause on account of which we can justify this tumultuary
concourse: (41)and so saying, he dissolved the assembly.
CHAP. XX.
THEN after the tumult was quieted, Paul called to him the disciples,
and taking his leave, departed to go into Macedonia. (2)And passing
through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he
went into Greece. (3)And after three months stay, as the Jews were
lying in wait for him, when he was just embarking for Syria, he
determined to return through Macedonia. (4)And there accompanied him as
far as Asia, Sopater a Berean; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus
and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and Tychicus and
Trophimus, Asiatics. (5)These going before tarried for us at Troas.
(6)And we sailed from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and
came to them to Troas after five days; where we stayed seven days.
(7)And on the first day of the week, when the disciples were assembled
to break bread, Paul preached unto them (ready to depart on the
morrow), and extended his discourse until midnight. (8)Now there were
many lamps in the upper room, where they were assembled. (9)And a
certain youth named Eutytchus, who sat in the window, fell into a
profound sleep: as Paul discoursed much longer than usual, quite
overpowered with sleep, he fell down from a third story, and was taken
up dead. (10)But Paul came down, and fell upon him, and taking him in
his arms, said, Trouble not yourselves, for his life is yet in him.
(11)And when he had gone up, and broken bread, and eaten, and conversed
a long time, even to the break of day, he then departed. (12)And they
brought the lad alive, and were comforted exceedingly.
