Acts 21:27-32
New King James Version
27 Now when the seven days were almost ended, (A)the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd and (B)laid hands on him, 28 crying out, “Men of Israel, help! This is the man (C)who teaches all men everywhere against the people, the law, and this place; and furthermore he also brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place.” 29 (For they had [a]previously seen (D)Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)
30 And (E)all the city was disturbed; and the people ran together, seized Paul, and dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were shut. 31 Now as they were (F)seeking to kill him, news came to the commander of the [b]garrison that all Jerusalem was in an uproar. 32 (G)He immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them. And when they saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
