24 someone named Demetrius - a silversmith who makes silver naves for Artemis, presents no small work to the technicians;
25 whom he gathers together with the workers of such occupation, and says, Men, you understand that by this work we prosper:
26 moreover you observe and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but throughout nearly all Asia, this Paulos convinces and removes a vast multitude; wording that no elohim becomes through hands:
27 so that not only this our part comes in peril to disrepute; but also that the priestal precinct of the mega goddess Artemis is reckoned as naught, and her majesty is about to be taken down - whom all Asia and the world venerates.
28 And hearing these, they become full of fury, they cry out, wording, Mega! Artemis of the Ephesians!
29 And the whole city fills/shalams with confusion: and catching Gaius and Aristarchus, men - Macedonians, co-travellers of Paulos, they run violently in unanimity into the theatre.
30 And Paulos wills to enter to the public, and the disciples allow him not:
31 and some of the Asiarchs - his friends, send to him, entreating him to not give himself into the theatre.
32 So others indeed cry out one, and some another; for the ecclesia is confused: and most of them know not for what cause they come together.
