⁵ So, when those men heard that, they were baptized to affirm that they believed MTY in the Lord Jesus.

⁶ After that, Paul placed his hands on their heads one by one, and the power of the Holy Spirit came upon each of them. The Holy Spirit enabled them to speak in various languages MTY that they had not learned, and they also spoke messages that the Holy Spirit revealed to them.

⁷ There were about twelve men whom Paul baptized and who received the power of the Holy Spirit.

⁸ For three months after that, Paul entered the Jewish meeting place in Ephesus on each Sabbath/Jewish day of rest, and he spoke boldly. He convincingly taught the people about how God wanted to rule MET their lives.

⁹ A few of the people in the meeting house believed the message about Jesus. But some of the people would not believe that message and did not want to continue to hear it. While many people were listening, they said many bad things about the way for people to receive eternal life about which Paul was preaching.

⁸ Paul went to the synagogue and over the course of the next three months spoke boldly to those who were there, discussing with them and trying to convince them about the kingdom of God.

⁹ But some of them were stubborn, and refused to accept. They denounced the Way to the crowd. So Paul gave up on them and left the synagogue, taking the believers with him. Then he had discussions every day at the hall of Tyrannus.

³ And he said vnto them, Vnto what were ye then baptized? And they saide, Vnto Iohns baptisme.

⁵ After those men heard that story they believed in Jesus too, and the Christians baptised them to show that they were following our leader Jesus.

⁶ Then Paul put his hands on their heads, and the Holy Spirit came into each one of them. The Holy Spirit gave them the power to talk in different languages, and they also told everyone the messages that the Holy Spirit gave them.

⁷ There were about 12 men in that mob.

⁸ For the next 3 months, on every Saturday Paul went to the Jewish meeting house in Ephesus, and he talked strongly to the people there. He tried to get them to believe in Jesus and understand the way God takes people into his family.

⁹ A few of those people believed the message about Jesus. But some of them didn’t believe it, and they didn’t want to keep hearing it, so they stood up in front of everybody and said bad things about the Christian people. (Another name for the Christians was the Jesus Way mob.) After that Paul left the Jewish meeting house and he took the Christians with him. They didn’t go the Jewish meeting house any more, but they had their meetings in a house called Tyrannus Hall. Every day Paul talked with people there about Jesus.
