14The Jewish high priest, whose name was Sceva, had seven sons who were doing this.
15An evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?”
16The evil spirit in the man leaped on the exorcists and overpowered them and beat them up. Then they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. They became very afraid, and the name of the Lord Jesus was honored.
18Also, many of the believers came and confessed and admitted the evil things they had done.
19Many who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of everyone. When they counted the value of them, it was fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20So the word of the Lord spread very widely in powerful ways.
21Now after Paul completed his ministry in Ephesus, he decided in the Spirit to pass through Macedonia and Achaia on his way to Jerusalem; he said, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
22Paul sent to Macedonia two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, who had helped him. But he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
23At about that time there was no small disturbance in Ephesus concerning the Way.
24A certain silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver statues of Artemis, brought in much business for the craftsmen.
