44:019:033 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting
him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would
have made his defence unto the people.
44:019:034 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about
the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the
Ephesians.
44:019:035 And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye
men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that
the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess
Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
44:019:036 Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye
ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
44:019:037 For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither
robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
44:019:038 Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him,
have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are
deputies: let them implead one another.
44:019:039 But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall
be determined in a lawful assembly.
44:019:040 For we are in danger to be called in question for this day's
uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of
this concourse.
44:019:041 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
44:020:001 And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the
disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into
Macedonia.
44:020:002 And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much
exhortation, he came into Greece,
44:020:003 And there abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for
him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return
through Macedonia.
44:020:004 And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of
the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of
Derbe, and Timotheus; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
44:020:005 These going before tarried for us at Troas.
44:020:006 And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened
bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we
abode seven days.
44:020:007 And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came
together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to
depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
44:020:008 And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they
were gathered together.
44:020:009 And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus,
being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long
preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the
third loft, and was taken up dead.
