22And having sent two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, into Macedonia, he himself went on living in Asia for a time.
23And about that time a great outcry took place about the Way.
24For there was a certain man named Demetrius, a silver-worker, who made silver boxes for the images of Diana, and gave no small profit to the workmen;
25Whom he got together, with other workmen of the same trade, and said to them, Men, it is clear that from this business we get our wealth.
26And you see, for it has come to your ears, that not only at Ephesus, but almost all through Asia, this Paul has been teaching numbers of people and turning them away, saying that those are not gods who are made by men's hands:
27And there is danger, not only that our trade may be damaged in the opinion of men, but that the holy place of the great goddess Diana may be no longer honoured, and that she to whom all Asia and the world give worship, will be put down from her high position.
28And hearing this, they were very angry, crying out and saying, Great is Diana of Ephesus.
