44:021:024 Them take, and purify thyself with them,
and be at charges
with
them, that they may shave their heads: and all
may know
that
those things, whereof they were informed concerning
thee,
are
nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly,
and
keepest
the law.
44:021:025 As touching the Gentiles which believe,
we have written and
concluded
that they observe no such thing, save only that they
keep
themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood,
and
from strangled, and from fornication.
44:021:026 Then Paul took the men, and the next day
purifying himself
with
them entered into the temple, to signify the
accomplishment
of the days of purification, until that an
offering
should be offered for every one of them.
44:021:027 And when the seven days were almost ended,
the Jews which were
of
Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all
the
people,
and laid hands on him,
44:021:028 Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This
is the man, that
teacheth
all men every where against the people, and the law,
and
this place: and further brought Greeks also into
the
temple,
and hath polluted this holy place.
44:021:029 (For they had seen before with him in the
city Trophimus an
Ephesian,
whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the
temple.)
44:021:030 And all the city was moved, and the people
ran together: and
they
took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and
forthwith
the
doors were shut.
44:021:031 And as they went about to kill him, tidings
came unto the
chief
captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an
uproar.
44:021:032 Who immediately took soldiers and centurions,
and ran down
unto
them: and when they saw the chief captain and
the
soldiers,
they left beating of Paul.
44:021:033 Then the chief captain came near, and took
him, and commanded
him
to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was,
and
what
he had done.
44:021:034 And some cried one thing, some another,
among the multitude:
and
when he could not know the certainty for the tumult,
he
commanded
him to be carried into the castle.
44:021:035 And when he came upon the stairs, so it
was, that he was borne
of
the soldiers for the violence of the people.
44:021:036 For the multitude of the people followed
after, crying, Away
with
him.
44:021:037 And as Paul was to be led into the castle,
he said unto the
chief
captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst
thou
speak
Greek?
