44:016:038 And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and
they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.
44:016:039 And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and
desired them to depart out of the city.
44:016:040 And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
44:017:001 Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia,
they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews:
44:017:002 And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three
sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures,
44:017:003 Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered,
and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I
preach unto you, is Christ.
44:017:004 And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas;
and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief
women not a few.
44:017:005 But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.
44:017:006 And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain
brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have
turned the world upside down are come hither also;
44:017:007 Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the
decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one
Jesus.
