20 Y presentándolos á los magistrados, dijeron: Estos hombres, siendo Judíos, alborotan nuestra ciudad,

21 Y predican ritos, los cuales no nos es lícito recibir ni hacer, pues somos Romanos.

22 Y agolpóse el pueblo contra ellos: y los magistrados rompiéndoles sus ropas, les mandaron azotar con varas.

23 Y después que los hubieron herido de muchos azotes, los echaron en la cárcel, mandando al carcelero que los guardase con diligencia:

24 El cual, recibido este mandamiento, los metió en la cárcel de más adentro; y les apretó los pies en el cepo.
