28 And when they heard these things they were filled with wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Ar’te-mis of the E-phe’si-ans. 29 And the whole city was in tumult: and they rushed together to the theatre, and there seized and carried along with them Ga’ius and Ar-is-tar’chus, Mac-e-do’ni-ans, members of Paul’s escort. 30 And Paul wanted to go into the theatre, but the disciples stopped him. 31 And likewise some of the chiefs of Asia Minor, because they were his friends, sent to him, begging him not to risk his life by entering the theatre. 32 Now the multitude in the theatre was greatly confused; some cried one thing, and some another; and many of them did not know why they had assembled together. 33 And the Jews who were there appointed a Jew named Al-ex-an’der. And when he rose up, he gestured with his hand and would have addressed the people. 34 But when they knew he was a Jew, all of them cried out with one voice for about two hours, Great is Ar’te-mis of the E-phe’si-ans.
