19When her masters saw that there was no hope of further profit from her, they seized Paul and Silas, dragged them into the public square to the authorities,
20and took them before the Magistrates. “These men are causing a great disturbance in our town,” they complained;
21“They are Jews, and they are teaching customs which it is not right for us, as Romans, to sanction or adopt.”
22The mob rose as one person against them, and the Magistrates stripped them of their clothing and ordered them to be beaten with rods.
23After beating them severely, the Magistrates put them in prison, with orders to the jailer to keep them in safe custody.
