Acts of the Apostles 19:38

In context

36Since these things cannot be denied, you ought to keep calm and do nothing rash. 37You have brought these men here though they have neither robbed temples nor blasphemed our goddess. 38So if Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a case against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls: let them bring their charges there. 39And if you are after anything further, it must be settled in the lawful assembly. 40As it is, we are in danger of being charged with rioting over today’s events, since there is no cause we could give to account for this commotion.”
