Acts 19:40

English Standard Version

40 For we really are in danger of being charged with rioting today, since there is no cause that we can give to justify this commotion.” 

New International Version

40 As it is, we are in danger of being charged with rioting because of what happened today. In that case we would not be able to account for this commotion, since there is no reason for it.’ 

New International Reader’s Version

40 As it is, we are in danger of being charged with a crime. We could be charged with causing all this trouble today. There is no reason for it. So we wouldn’t be able to explain what has happened.’ 

King James Version

40 For we are in danger to be called in question for this day's uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.
