Acts of the Apostles 19:30

In context

28When they heard this they were filled with rage and began shouting, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!” 29The city was thrown into confusion, and they rushed as one into the theater, dragging along Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians who were Paul’s traveling companions. 30Paul wanted to go before the crowd, but the disciples would not let him; 31and some of the officials of Asia who were his friends sent word urging him not to venture into the theater. 32Meanwhile some were shouting one thing and some another, for the assembly was in chaos and most of them did not know why they had come together.
