Acts 21:30-36 ▼

30 All the city was also moved and there was a running together of the people, and having laid hold on Paul, they were drawing him out of the temple, and immediately were the doors shut,

31 and they seeking to kill him, a rumor came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem has been thrown into confusion,

32 who, at once, having taken soldiers and centurions, ran down on them, and they having seen the chief captain and the soldiers, left off beating Paul.

33 Then the chief captain, having come near, took him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains, and was inquiring who he may be, and what it is he has been doing,

34 and some were crying out one thing, and some another, among the multitude, and not being able to know the certainty because of the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the stronghold,

35 and when he came on the steps, it happened he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the multitude,

36 for the crowd of the people was following after, crying, “Away with him.”
