Acts 19:24 Context
22So hee sent into Macedonia two of them that ministred vnto him, Timotheus and Erastus, but he himselfe stayed in Asia for a season. 23And the same time there arose no small stirre about that way. 24For a certaine man named Demetrius, a siluer smith, which made siluer shrines for Diana, brought no small gaine vnto the craftsmen: 25Whom he called together, with the workemen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we haue our wealth. 26Moreouer, ye see & heare, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath perswaded and turned away much people, saying, that they bee no gods, which are made with hands.
