Apostlenes gjerninger 21,33

31 Mens de forsøkte å drepe ham, nådde ordet kommandanten for den romerske kohorten at hele Jerusalem var i forvirring.

32 Han tok straks soldater og centurioner og løp ned til folkemengden. Da de så kommandanten og soldatene, sluttet de å slå Paulus.

Kommandanten kom opp, arresterte ham, og beordret at han skulle bindes med to lenker. Han spurte deretter hvem han var og hva han hadde gjort.

34 Noen i folkemengden ropte én ting og noen en annen. Siden kommandanten ikke kunne fastslå sannheten på grunn av oppstyret, beordret han at Paulus skulle føres inn i brakken.

35 Da Paulus nådde trappene, var volden fra mobben så stor at han måtte bæres av soldatene.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
