Deeds (Act) of Apostles 16:19-23

¹⁹And the lords of her saw, that the hope of their winning went away, and they took (hold of) Paul and Silas, and led them into the chapping, either doom place, to the princes. (And her masters saw, that their hope for more profit went away, and they took hold of Paul and Silas, and led (them) to the market, (or to the seat of judgement), that is, the city square, to the city leaders.)

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 (or which it is not lawful for us to accept), 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 (or and when they had torn their coats to pieces), 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. (And after they had given them many wounds, they threw them into prison, and commanded the warden of the prison, that he should guard them carefully.)
