)If therefore Demetrius, and the craftsmen with him, have
a matter against any man, the law is open[19:38], and there are
proconsuls; let them implead one another. (39)But if ye make any
demand concerning other matters, it shall be determined in the lawful
assembly. (40)For we are in danger of being called in question for

AND after the tumult ceased, Paul called to him the disciples, and
having embraced them, departed to go into Macedonia. (2)And having
gone through those regions, and given them much exhortation, he came
into Greece. (3)And after he had stayed three months, a plot being
