Acts 19:38-40

International Children’s Bible

³⁸ We have courts of law, and there are judges. Do Demetrius and the men who work with him have a charge against anyone? They should go to the courts! That is where they can argue with each other! ³⁹ Is there something else you want to talk about? It can be decided at the regular town meeting of the people. ⁴⁰ I say this because some people might see this trouble today and say that we are rioting. We could not explain this because there is no real reason for this meeting.”
