Acts:19:24-32

*
For a certain man named Demetrius ,
a silversmith ,
which made (
5723 )
silver shrines for Diana ,
brought (
5710 )
no small gain unto the craftsmen ;
*
Whom he called together (
5660 )
with the workmen of like occupation ,
and said (
5627 ),
Sirs ,
ye know (
5736 )
that by this craft we have (
5748 )
our wealth .
*
Moreover ye see (
5719 )
and hear (
5719 ),
that not alone at Ephesus ,
but almost throughout all Asia ,
this Paul hath persuaded (
5660 )
and turned away (
5656 )
much people ,
saying (
5723 )
that they be (
5748 )
no gods ,
which are made (
5740 )
with hands :
*
So that not only this our craft is in danger (
5719 )
to be set (
5629 )
at nought ;
but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised (
5683 ),
and her magnificence should (
5721 )
be destroyed (
5745 ),
whom all Asia and the world worshippeth (
5736 ).
*
And when they heard (
5660 )
these sayings ,
they were (
5637 )
full of wrath ,
and cried out (
5707 ),
saying (
5723 ),
Great is Diana of the Ephesians .
*
And the whole city was filled (
5681 )
with confusion :
and having caught (
5660 )
Gaius and Aristarchus ,
men of Macedonia ,
Pauls companions in travel ,
they rushed (
5656 )
with one accord into the theatre .
*
And when Paul would (
5740 )
have entered (
5629 )
in unto the people ,
the disciples suffered (
5707 )
him not .
*
And certain of the chief of Asia ,
which were (
5752 )
his friends ,
sent (
5660 )
unto him ,
desiring (
5707 )
him that he would not adventure (
5629 )
himself into the theatre .
*
Some therefore cried (
5707 )
one thing ,
and some another :
for the assembly was (
5713 )
confused (
5772 );
and the more part knew (
5715 )
not wherefore they were come together (
5715 ).
