Acts 21:30-32

Modern English Version

³⁰ Then the whole city was provoked, and the people ran together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple. And immediately the doors were shut. ³¹ While they were trying to kill him, news came up to the commander^[a] of the battalion of soldiers that all Jerusalem was in an uproar. ³² He at once took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them. When they saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
