30 So the whole city was in a tumult, and all the people ran together; they seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple; and the doors were immediately shut. 31 And as the mob sought to kill him, the news reached the captain of the company, that all the city was in an uproar. 32 He immediately took a centurion and many soldiers, and ran down to them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they ceased beating Paul. 33 Then the chief captain came near him and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains. Then he inquired, Who is he and what has he done? 34 And some of the mob cried against him one thing, some another: and because of their confusion he was unable to know what was true, so he commanded him to be taken to headquarters. 35 And when Paul reached the stairs, the soldiers bore him because of the violence of the people. 36 For a great many people followed after, crying, and saying, Away with him.
