14The seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this;
15but the wicked spirit answered them, “Jesus I acknowledge, and Paul I know, but you — who are you?”
16Then the man, in whom this wicked spirit was, sprang on them, mastered both of them, and so completely overpowered them, that they fled out of the house, stripped of their clothes, and wounded.
17This incident came to the knowledge of all the Jews and Greeks living at Ephesus; they were all awe-struck, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in the highest honour.
18Many, too, of those who had become believers in Christ came with a full confession of their practices;
19while a number of people, who had practised magic, collected their books and burnt them publicly; and on reckoning up the price of these, they found it amounted to fifty thousand silver coins.
20So irresistibly did the Lord's message spread and prevail.
