For a person named Demetrius, a silversmith who made silver shrines of Artemis, provided a great deal of business for the craftsmen.When he had assembled them, as well as the workers engaged in this type of business, he said:“ Men, you know that our prosperity is derived from this business.You both see and hear that not only in Ephesus, but in almost all of Asia, this man Paul has persuaded and misled a considerable number of people by saying that gods made by hand are not gods!So not only do we run a risk that our business may be discredited, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis may be despised and her magnificence come to the verge of ruin— the very one all of Asia and the world adore.”When they had heard this, they were filled with rage and began to cry out,“ Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”So the city was filled with confusion, and they rushed all together into the amphitheater, dragging along Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians who were Paul’s traveling companions.Though Paul wanted to go in before the people, the disciples did not let him.Even some of the provincial officials of Asia, who were his friends, sent word to him, pleading with him not to take a chance by going into the amphitheater.Meanwhile, some were shouting one thing and some another, because the assembly was in confusion, and most of them did not know why they had come together.Then some of the crowd gave Alexander advice when the Jews pushed him to the front. So motioning with his hand, Alexander wanted to make his defense to the people.But when they recognized that he was a Jew, a united cry went up from all of them for about two hours:“ Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”

Job 30:1-10
But now they mock me, men younger than I am, whose fathers I would have refused to put with my sheep dogs.What use to me was the strength of their hands? Their vigor had left them.Emaciated from poverty and hunger, they gnawed the dry land, the desolate wasteland by night.They plucked mallow among the shrubs, and the roots of the broom tree were their food.They were expelled from human society; people shouted at them as if they were thieves.They are living on the slopes of the wadis, among the rocks and in holes in the ground.They bray among the shrubs; they huddle beneath the thistles.Foolish men, without even a name. They were forced to leave the land.Now I am mocked by their songs; I have become an object of scorn to them.They despise me and keep their distance from me; they do not hesitate to spit in my face.
