Deeds (Act) of Apostles 16:18-25

¹⁸And this she did in many days. And Paul sorrowed, and turned, and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ, that thou go out of her. And he went out in the same hour.

¹⁹And the lords of her saw, that the hope of their winning went away, and they took Paul and Silas, and led them into the chapping, either doom place, to the princes.

²⁰And they brought them to the magistrates, and said, These men disturb or distrouble our city, for they be Jews,

²¹and show a custom, which it is not leaveful to us to receive, neither do, since we be Romans.

²²And the people and magistrates ran against them, and when they had rent to pieces the coats of them, they commanded them to be beaten with rods.

²³And when they had given to them many wounds, they sent them into prison, and commanded to the keeper, that he should keep them diligently.

²⁴And when he had taken such a precept, he put them into the inner prison, and restrained the feet of them in a tree.

²⁵And at midnight Paul and Silas worshipped, and praised God; and they that were in the keeping, heard them.
