Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:26 - “You see G2334 and hear G191 that not only G3440 in Ephesus G2181, but in almost G4975 all G3956 of [fn]Asia G773, this G3778 Paul G3972 has persuaded G3982 and turned G3179 away G3179 a considerable G2425 number G3793 of G3793 people G3793, saying G3004 that [fn]gods made G1096 by hands G5495 are not G3756 gods G2316 at all.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:27 - “Not only G3440 is G2793 there danger G2793 that this G3778 trade G3313 of ours G1473 will fall G2064 into disrepute G557, but also G2532 that the temple G2413 of the great G3173 goddess G2299 [fn]Artemis G735 will be regarded G3049 as worthless G3762, and that she whom G3739 all G3650 of [fn]Asia G773 and the [fn]world G3625 worship G4576 will even G2532 be dethroned G2507 from her magnificence G3168.”

When they heard G191 this and were filled G4134 with rage G2372, they began shouting G2896, saying G3004, “Great G3173 is [fn]Artemis G735 of the Ephesians G2180!”

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:29 - The city G4172 was filled G4130 with the confusion G4799, and they rushed G3729 together G3661 into the theater G2302, dragging G4884 along G4884 Gaius G1050 and Aristarchus G708, Paul’s G3972 Macedonian G3110 traveling G4898 companions G4898.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:32 - So G3767 then G3767, some G243 were shouting G2896 one G3303 thing and some G243 another G243, for the [fn]assembly G1577 was in G4797 confusion G4797 and the majority G4183 did not know G6063 [fn]for what G5101 reason G6025 they had come G4905 together G4905.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:33 - Some of the crowd G3793 [fn]concluded G4822 it was Alexander G223, since the Jews G2453 had put G4261 him forward G4261; and having motioned G2678 with his hand G5495, Alexander G223 was intending G2309 to make G626 a G626 defense G626 to the assembly G1218.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:34 - But when they recognized G1921 that he was a Jew G2453, a single G1520 outcry G5456 arose G1096 from them all G3956 as they shouted G2896 for about G5613 two G1417 hours G5610, “Great G3173 is [fn]Artemis G735 of the Ephesians G2180!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:35 -

After quieting G2687 the crowd G3793, the town G1122 clerk G1122 *said G5346, “Men G435 of Ephesus G2181, what G5101 person G444 is there after G1063 all G1063 who G3739 does not know G1097 that the city G4172 of the Ephesians G2180 is guardian G3511 of G3511 the G3511 temple G3511 of the great G3173 [fn]Artemis G735 and of the image which G1356 fell G1356 down G1356 from G1356 [fn]the G1356 sky G1356?

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:36 - “So G3767, since these G3778 are undeniable G368 facts, you ought G1163 to keep G5225 calm G2687 and to do G4238 nothing G3367 rash G4312.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:37 - “For you have brought G71 these G3778 men G435 here who are neither G3777 temple G2417 robbers G2417 nor G3777 blasphemers G987 of our goddess G2299.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:38 - “So G3767 then G3767, if G1487 Demetrius G1216 and the craftsmen G5079 who are with him have G2192 a complaint G3056 against G4314 anyone G5100, the courts G60 are in G71 session G71 and [fn]proconsuls G446 are available; have them bring G1458 charges G1458 against G1458 one G240 another G240.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:39 - “But if G1487 you want G1934 anything G5100 beyond G6071 this, it shall be settled G1956 in the [fn]lawful G1772 [fn]assembly G1577.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:40 - “For indeed G2532, we are G2793 in G2793 danger G2793 of being accused G1458 of a riot G4714 in G4012 connection G4012 with G4012 today’s G4594 events, since there is no G3367 real reason G159 for it, and in G4012 this G3739 connection G4012 we will be unable G3756 G1410 to account G3056 G591 for this G3778 disorderly G4963 gathering G4963.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:41 - After saying G3004 this G3778 he dismissed G630 the [fn]assembly G1577.
