²⁰They brought them to the magistrates and said, “These men are Jews and are throwing our city into turmoil

²¹by promoting customs that are unlawful for us Romans to adopt or practice.”

          22The crowd joined in the attack against Paul and Silas, and the magistrates ordered that they be stripped and beaten with rods.
          23And after striking them with many blows, they threw them into prison and ordered the jailer to guard them securely.
          24On receiving this order, he placed them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks.
