Acts 13:5-16

⁵And being in Salamis, they announced the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also as their attendant.

⁶And having passed through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain man a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus,

⁷who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. He, having called Barnabas and Saul to him, desired to hear the word of God.

⁸But Elymas the magician (for so his name is by interpretation) opposed them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.

⁹But Saul, who also is Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fixing his eyes upon him,

¹⁰said, O full of all deceit and all craft: son of the devil, enemy of all righteousness; wilt thou not cease perverting the right paths of the Lord?

¹¹And now behold, the Lord's hand is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell upon him a mist and darkness; and going about he sought persons who should lead him by the hand.

¹²Then the proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being amazed at the teaching of the Lord.

¹³And having sailed from Paphos, Paul and his company came to Perga of Pamphylia; and John separated from them and returned to Jerusalem.

¹⁴But they, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia; and entering into the synagogue on the sabbath day they sat down.

¹⁵And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation to the people, speak.

¹⁶And Paul, rising up and making a sign with the hand, said, Israelites, and ye that fear God, hearken.
