And attacking Jason’s house, they were looking for them to bring them* out to the popular assembly. 6 And when they* did not find them, they dragged Jason and some brothers before the city officials, shouting, “These people who have stirred up trouble throughout the worldd have come here also, 7 whom Jason has entertained as guests! And these people are all acting contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying there is another king, Jesus!” 8 And they threw the crowd into confusion, and the city officials who heard these things. 9 And after* taking money as security from Jason and the rest, they released them.
