31And while they were attempting to put him to death, news came to the chief captain of the band that all Jerusalem was out of control.
32And straight away he took some armed men and went quickly down to them: and the Jews, seeing them, gave no more blows to Paul.
33Then the chief captain came near and took him, and gave orders for him to be put in chains, questioning them as to who he was and what he had done.
34And some said one thing and some another, among the people: and as he was not able to get a knowledge of the facts because of the noise, he gave orders for Paul to be taken into the army building.
35And when he came on to the steps, he was lifted up by the armed men, because of the force of the people;
36For a great mass of people came after them, crying out, Away with him!
37And when Paul was about to be taken into the building, he said to the chief captain, May I say something to you? And he said, Have you a knowledge of Greek?
