| 30 | Then all the city was stirred, and the people rushed together, and taking hold of Paul they dragged him out of the temple, and immediately the doors were shut. | Then all the city was stirred up, and the people ran together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple, and at once the gates were shut. | The whole city was aroused, and the people came running from all directions. Seizing Paul, they dragged him from the temple, and immediately the gates were shut. | |
| 31 | While they were seeking to kill him, a report came up to the commander of the Roman cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion. | And as they were seeking to kill him, word came to the tribune of the cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion. | While they were trying to kill him, news reached the commander of the Roman troops that the whole city of Jerusalem was in an uproar. | |
| 32 | At once he took along soldiers and centurions and ran down to them; and when they saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul. | He at once took soldiers and centurions and ran down to them. And when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul. | He at once took some officers and soldiers and ran down to the crowd. When the rioters saw the commander and his soldiers, they stopped beating Paul. | |
| 33 | Then the commander came up and took hold of him, and ordered him to be bound with two chains; and he began asking who he was and what he had done. | Then the tribune came up and arrested him and ordered him to be bound with two chains. He inquired who he was and what he had done. | The commander came up and arrested him and ordered him to be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done. | |
| 34 | But among the crowd some were shouting one thing and some another, and when he could not find out the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks. | Some in the crowd were shouting one thing, some another. And as he could not learn the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks. | Some in the crowd shouted one thing and some another, and since the commander could not get at the truth because of the uproar, he ordered that Paul be taken into the barracks. | |
| 35 | And when he got to the stairs, he actually was carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd; | And when he came to the steps, he was actually carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd, | When Paul reached the steps, the violence of the mob was so great he had to be carried by the soldiers. | |
| 36 | for the multitude of the people kept following them, shouting, “Away with him!” | for the mob of the people followed, crying out, “Away with him!” | The crowd that followed kept shouting, “Get rid of him!” | |
