Acts 19:15 (WEB) World English Bible

1 It happened that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus, and found certain disciples.
2 He said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" They said to him, "No, we haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."
3 He said, "Into what then were you baptized?" They said, "Into John's baptism."
4 Paul said, "John indeed baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Jesus."
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke with other languages and prophesied.
7 They were about twelve men in all.
8 He entered into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning the Kingdom of God.
9 But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
10 This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
11 God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul,
12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the evil spirits went out.
13 But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to name over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches."
14 There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.
15 The evil spirit answered, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you ?"
16 The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17 This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. Fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18 Many also of those who had believed came, confessing, and declaring their deeds.
19 Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted the price of them, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20 So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.
21 Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."
22 Having sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
23 About that time there arose no small stir concerning the Way.
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen,
25 whom he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, "Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth.
26 You see and hear, that not at Ephesus alone, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods, that are made with hands.
27 Not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted as nothing, and her majesty destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships."
28 When they heard this they were filled with anger, and cried out, saying, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"
29 The whole city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel.
30 When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the disciples didn't allow him.
31 Certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another, for the assembly was in confusion. Most of them didn't know why they had come together.
33 They brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. Alexander beckoned with his hand, and would have made a defense to the people.
34 But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice for a time of about two hours cried out, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"
35 When the town clerk had quieted the multitude, he said, "You men of Ephesus, what man is there who doesn't know that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great goddess Artemis, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?
36 Seeing then that these things can't be denied, you ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rash.
37 For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess.
38 If therefore Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a matter against anyone, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls. Let them press charges against one another.
39 But if you seek anything about other matters, it will be settled in the regular assembly.
40 For indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning this day's riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we wouldn't be able to give an account of this commotion."
41 When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
1 And G1161 it came to pass, G1096 that , while Apollos G625 was G1511 at G1722 Corinth, G2882 Paul G3972 having passed through G1330 the G3588 upper G510 coasts G3313 came G2064 to G1519 Ephesus: G2181 and G2532 finding G2147 certain G5100 disciples, G3101
2 He said G2036 unto G4314 them, G846 Have G1487 ye received G2983 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 since ye believed G4100 ? And G1161 they G3588 said G2036 unto G4314 him, G846 We have not so much as G235 G3761 heard G191 whether G1487 there be G2076 any Holy G40 Ghost. G4151
3 And G5037 he said G2036 unto G4314 them, G846 Unto G1519 what G5101 then G3767 were ye baptized G907 ? And G1161 they G3588 said, G2036 Unto G1519 John's G2491 baptism. G908
4 Then G1161 said G2036 Paul, G3972 John G2491 verily G3303 baptized G907 with the baptism G908 of repentance, G3341 saying G3004 unto the G3588 people, G2992 that G2443 they should believe G4100 on G1519 him which should come G2064 after G3326 him, G846 that is, G5123 on G1519 Christ G5547 Jesus. G2424
5 When G1161 they heard G191 this, they were baptized G907 in G1519 the G3588 name G3686 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus. G2424
6 And G2532 when Paul G3972 had laid G2007 his hands G5495 upon them, G846 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 came G2064 on G1909 them; G846 and G5037 they spake G2980 with tongues, G1100 and G2532 prophesied. G4395
7 And G1161 all G3956 the men G435 were G2258 about G5616 twelve. G1177
8 And G1161 he went G1525 into G1519 the G3588 synagogue, G4864 and spake boldly G3955 for the space of G1909 three G5140 months, G3376 disputing G1256 and G2532 persuading G3982 the things G3588 concerning G4012 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God. G2316
9 But G1161 when G5613 divers G5100 were hardened, G4645 and G2532 believed not, G544 but spake evil G2551 of that way G3598 before G1799 the G3588 multitude, G4128 he departed G868 from G575 them, G846 and separated G873 the G3588 disciples, G3101 disputing G1256 daily G2596 G2250 in G1722 the G3588 school G4981 of one G5100 Tyrannus. G5181
10 And G1161 this G5124 continued G1096 by the space of G1909 two G1417 years; G2094 so that G5620 all G3956 they which dwelt G2730 in Asia G773 heard G191 the G3588 word G3056 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus, G2424 both G5037 Jews G2453 and G2532 Greeks. G1672
11 And G5037 God G2316 wrought G4160 special G3756 G5177 miracles G1411 by G1223 the G3588 hands G5495 of Paul: G3972
12 So that G5620 G2532 from G575 his G846 body G5559 were brought G2018 unto G1909 the G3588 sick G770 handkerchiefs G4676 or G2228 aprons, G4612 and G2532 the G3588 diseases G3554 departed G525 from G575 them, G846 and G5037 the G3588 evil G4190 spirits G4151 went G1831 out of G575 them. G846
13 Then G1161 certain G5100 of G575 the G3588 vagabond G4022 Jews, G2453 exorcists, G1845 took upon G2021 them to call G3687 over G1909 them which had G2192 evil G4190 spirits G4151 the G3588 name G3686 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus, G2424 saying, G3004 We adjure G3726 you G5209 by Jesus G2424 whom G3739 Paul G3972 preacheth. G2784
14 And G1161 there were G2258 seven G2033 sons G5207 of one Sceva, G4630 a Jew, G2453 and chief of the priests, G749 which did G4160 so. G5124
15 And G1161 the G3588 evil G4190 spirit G4151 answered G611 and said, G2036 Jesus G2424 I know, G1097 and G2532 Paul G3972 I know; G1987 but G1161 who G5101 are G2075 ye G5210 ?
16 And G2532 the G3588 man G444 in G1722 whom G3739 the G3588 evil G4190 spirit G4151 was G2258 leaped G2177 on G1909 them, G846 and G2532 overcame G2634 them, G846 and prevailed G2480 against G2596 them, G846 so that G5620 they fled G1628 out of G1537 that G1565 house G3624 naked G1131 and G2532 wounded. G5135
17 And G1161 this G5124 was G1096 known G1110 to all G3956 the Jews G2453 and G2532 Greeks G1672 also G5037 dwelling G2730 at Ephesus; G2181 and G2532 fear G5401 fell G1968 on G1909 them G846 all, G3956 and G2532 the G3588 name G3686 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 was magnified. G3170
18 And G5037 many G4183 that believed G4100 came, G2064 and confessed, G1843 and G2532 showed G312 their G848 deeds. G4234
19 G1161 Many G2425 of them also which used G4238 curious arts G4021 brought their books together G4851 G976 , and burned G2618 them before G1799 all G3956 men : and G2532 they counted G4860 the G3588 price G5092 of them, G846 and G2532 found G2147 it fifty thousand G4002 G3461 pieces of silver. G694
20 So G3779 mightily G2596 G2904 grew G837 the G3588 word G3056 of God G2962 and G2532 prevailed. G2480
21 G1161 After G5613 these things G5023 were ended, G4137 Paul G3972 purposed G5087 in G1722 the G3588 spirit, G4151 when he had passed through G1330 Macedonia G3109 and G2532 Achaia, G882 to go G4198 to G1519 Jerusalem, G2419 saying, G2036 After I G3165 have been G1096 there, G1563 I G3165 must G1163 also G2532 see G1492 Rome. G4516
22 So G1161 he sent G649 into G1519 Macedonia G3109 two G1417 of them that ministered G1247 unto him, G846 Timothy G5095 and G2532 Erastus; G2037 but he G846 himself stayed G1907 in G1519 Asia G773 for a season. G5550
23 And G1161 the same G2596 G1565 time G2540 there arose G1096 no G3756 small G3641 stir G5017 about G4012 that way. G3598
24 For G1063 a certain G5100 man named G3686 Demetrius, G1216 a silversmith, G695 which made G4160 silver G693 shrines G3485 for Diana, G735 brought G3930 no G3756 small G3641 gain G2039 unto the G3588 craftsmen; G5079
25 Whom G3739 he called together G4867 with G2532 the G3588 workmen G2040 of G4012 like occupation, G5108 and said, G2036 Sirs, G435 ye know G1987 that G3754 by G1537 this G5026 craft G2039 we have G2076 our G2257 wealth. G2142
26 Moreover G2532 ye see G2334 and G2532 hear, G191 that G3754 not G3756 alone G3440 at Ephesus, G2181 but G235 almost G4975 throughout all G3956 Asia, G773 this G3778 Paul G3972 hath persuaded G3982 and turned away G3179 much G2425 people, G3793 saying G3004 that G3754 they be G1526 no G3756 gods, G2316 which G3588 are made G1096 with G1223 hands: G5495
27 So that G1161 not G3756 only G3440 this G5124 our G2254 craft G3313 is in danger G2793 to be set at naught G2064 G1519; G557 but G235 also G2532 that the G3588 temple G2411 of the G3588 great G3173 goddess G2299 Diana G735 should be despised G1519 G3762, G3049 and G1161 her G848 magnificence G3168 should G3195 be G2532 destroyed, G2507 whom G3739 all G3650 Asia G773 and G2532 the G3588 world G3625 worshippeth. G4576
28 And G1161 when they heard G191 these sayings, they were G1096 full G4134 of wrath, G2372 and G2532 cried out, G2896 saying, G3004 Great G3173 is Diana G735 of the Ephesians. G2180
29 And G2532 the G3588 whole G3650 city G4172 was filled G4130 with confusion: G4799 and G5037 having caught G4884 Gaius G1050 and G2532 Aristarchus, G708 men of Macedonia, G3110 Paul's G3972 companions in travel, G4898 they rushed G3729 with one accord G3661 into G1519 the G3588 theater. G2302
30 And G1161 when Paul G3972 would G1014 have entered in G1525 unto G1519 the G3588 people, G1218 the G3588 disciples G3101 suffered G1439 him G846 not. G3756
31 And G1161 certain G5100 of G2532 the G3588 chief of Asia, G775 which were G5607 his G846 friends, G5384 sent G3992 unto G4314 him, G846 desiring G3870 him that he would not G3361 adventure G1325 himself G1438 into G1519 the G3588 theater. G2302
32 Some therefore cried one thing G243 G3303 G3767 , G2896 and some G243 another: G5100 for G1063 the G3588 assembly G1577 was G2258 confused; G4797 and G2532 the G3588 more part G4119 knew G1492 not G3756 wherefore G5101 G1752 they were come together. G4905
33 And G1161 they drew G4264 Alexander G223 out of G1537 the G3588 multitude, G3793 the G3588 Jews G2453 putting him forward G4261 G846 . And G1161 Alexander G223 beckoned G2678 with the G3588 hand, G5495 and would G2309 have made his defense G626 unto the G3588 people. G1218
34 But G1161 when they knew G1921 that G3754 he was G2076 a Jew, G2453 all with one voice G1096 G5456 G3391 G1537 G3956 about the space of G5613 G1909 two G1417 hours G5610 cried out, G2896 Great G3173 is Diana G735 of the Ephesians. G2180
35 And G1161 when the G3588 town clerk G1122 had appeased G2687 the G3588 people, G3793 he said, G5346 Ye men G435 of Ephesus G2180 G1063 , what G5101 man G444 is G2076 there that G3739 knoweth G1097 not G3756 how that the G3588 city G4172 of the Ephesians G2180 is G5607 a worshiper G3511 of the G3588 great G3173 goddess G2299 Diana, G735 and G2532 of the image which fell down from Jupiter G1356 ?
36 Seeing then G3767 that these things G5130 cannot be spoken against G5607 G368 , ye G5209 G2076 ought G1163 to be G5225 quiet, G2687 and G2532 to do G4238 nothing G3367 rashly. G4312
37 For G1063 ye have brought G71 hither these G5128 men, G435 which are neither G3777 robbers of churches, G2417 nor G3777 yet blasphemers G987 of your G5216 goddess. G2299
38 Wherefore G3767 if G1487 G3303 Demetrius, G1216 and G2532 the G3588 craftsmen G5079 which are with G4862 him, G846 have G2192 a matter G3056 against G4314 any man, G5100 the law is open G60 G71 , and G2532 there are G1526 deputies: G446 let them implead G1458 one another. G240
39 But G1161 if G1487 ye inquire G1934 any thing G5100 concerning G4012 other matters, G2087 it shall be determined G1956 in G1722 a lawful G1772 assembly. G1577
40 For G1063 we are in danger G2793 to G2532 be called in question G1458 for G4012 this day's G4594 uproar, G4714 there being G5225 no G3367 cause G158 whereby G4012 G3739 we may G1410 give G591 an account G3056 of this G5026 concourse. G4963
41 And G2532 when he had thus G5023 spoken, G2036 he dismissed G630 the G3588 assembly. G1577
