Acts 19:30-36

³⁰And when Paul was minded to enter in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.

³¹And certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent unto him and besought him not to adventure himself into the theatre.

³²Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was in confusion; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.

³³And they brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made a defence unto the people.

³⁴But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.

³⁵And when the townclerk had quieted the multitude, he saith, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there who knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?

³⁶Seeing then that these things cannot be gainsaid, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rash.
