But the unbelieving Jews, taking with them some evil men, who were loungers about the markets, and collecting a mob, set the city in an uproar; and having assaulted the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.

But not finding them, they dragged Jason and certain brethren before the rulers of the city, crying out: These men, who have thrown the world into confusion, have come hither also;

whom Jason has received into his house: and they all act in opposition to the decrees of Caesar, saying, That there is another king, Jesus.

And they took security of Jason, and of the others, and let them go.

Timothy, my fellow-workman, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen, salute you.
