27 And
when the seven days were almost ended,
the Jews which were of Asia, when they
saw him in the temple, stirred up all
the people, and laid hands on him,
28 Crying
out, Men of Israel, help: This is the
man, that teacheth all men every
where against the people, and the law,
and this place: and further brought
Greeks also into the temple, and hath
polluted this holy place.
29 (For
they had seen before with him in the
city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they
supposed that Paul had brought into the
temple.)
30 And
all the city was moved, and the people
ran together: and they took Paul, and
drew him out of the temple: and
forthwith the doors were shut.
31 And
as they went about to kill him, tidings
came unto the chief captain of the band,
that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.
32 Who
immediately took soldiers and
centurions, and ran down unto them: and
when they saw the chief captain and the
soldiers, they left beating of Paul.
33 Then
the chief captain came near, and took
him, and commanded him to be
bound with two chains; and demanded who
he was, and what he had done.
34 And
some cried one thing, some another,
among the multitude: and when he could
not know the certainty for the tumult,
he commanded him to be carried into the
castle.
35 And
when he came upon the stairs, so it was,
that he was borne of the soldiers for
the violence of the people.
36 For
the multitude of the people followed
after, crying, Away with him.
