Deeds (Act) of Apostles 19:3-21

³And he said, Therefore in what thing be ye baptized? And they said, In the baptism of John.

⁴And Paul said, John baptized the people in the baptism of penance, and taught, that they should believe in him that was to coming or to come after him, that is, in Jesus.

⁵When they heard these things, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

⁶And when Paul had laid on them his hands, the Holy Ghost came into them or on them, and they spake with languages, and prophesied.

⁷And all were almost twelve men.

⁸And he went into the synagogue, and spake with trust three months, disputing and treating or softly moving of the kingdom of God.

⁹But when some were harded or were made hard, and believed not, and cursed the way of the Lord before the multitude, he went away from them, and separated the disciples, and disputed in the school of a mighty man each day.

¹⁰This was done by two years, so that all that dwelled in Asia heard the word of the Lord, Jews and heathen men.

¹¹And God did virtues not small or little by the hand of Paul,

¹²so that on sick men the sudaria, or sweating clothes, were borne from his body, and sicknesses departed from them, and wicked spirits went out.

¹³But also some of the Jewish exorcists went about, and assayed or attempted to in-call the name of the Lord Jesus Christ on them that had evil spirits, and said, I conjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preacheth.

¹⁴And there were seven sons of a Jew, Sceva, a prince of priests, that did this thing.

¹⁵But the evil spirit answered, and said to them, I know Jesus, and I know Paul; but who be ye?

¹⁶And the man in which was the worst devil, leaped on them, and had victory or lordship on both, and was strong against them, that they naked and wounded fled away from that house.

¹⁷And this thing was made known to all the Jews and heathen men, that dwelled at Ephesus; and dread fell down on them all, and they magnified the name of the Lord Jesus.

¹⁸And many men believed, and came, acknowledging and telling their deeds.

¹⁹And many of them that pursued curious things, brought together books, and burned them before all men; and when the prices of those were acounted, they found money of fifty thousand pence;

²⁰so strongly the word of God waxed, and was confirmed.

²¹And when these things were ful filled, Paul purposed in spirit, after that Macedonia was passed and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, and said, For after that I shall be there, it behooveth me also to see Rome or to see also Rome.
