Acts 17:2-5
New International Version
2 As was his custom, Paul went into the synagogue,(A) and on three Sabbath(B) days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,(C) 3 explaining and proving that the Messiah had to suffer(D) and rise from the dead.(E) “This Jesus I am proclaiming to you is the Messiah,”(F) he said. 4 Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas,(G) as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few prominent women.
5 But other Jews were jealous; so they rounded up some bad characters from the marketplace, formed a mob and started a riot in the city.(H) They rushed to Jason’s(I) house in search of Paul and Silas in order to bring them out to the crowd.[a]

Acts 17:2-5
King James Version
2 And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures,
3 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.
4 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.
5 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.
