Acts 17:6-10 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

6. When they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the other believers to the city leaders. The people shouted, “These men have made trouble everywhere in the world, and now they have come here too!

7. Jason is keeping them in his house. They all do things against the laws of Caesar. They say there is another king called Jesus.”

8. When the city leaders and the other people heard this, they became very upset.

9. They made Jason and the other believers deposit money to guarantee that there would be no more trouble. Then they let them go.

10. That same night the believers sent Paul and Silas to another city named Berea. When they arrived there, they went to the Jewish synagogue.
