Acts 19:31-33

Revised Geneva Translation

³¹ Then, some of the rulers of Asia who were his friends sent word to him, begging him not to show himself in the theatre.

³² Therefore some cried one thing, and some another. For the assembly was out of order, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

³³ And they brought Alexander out, the Jews thrusting him forward. Alexander then beckoned with his hand, wanting to make a defense to the people.
