1 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus and found certain disciples. Acts 19:1WEB
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.” Acts 19:2WEB
3 He said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into John’s baptism.” Acts 19:3WEB
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.” Acts 19:4WEB
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 19:5WEB
6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke with other languages and prophesied. Acts 19:6WEB
7 They were about twelve men in all. Acts 19:7WEB
8 He entered into the synagogue and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning God’s Kingdom. Acts 19:8WEB
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. Acts 19:9WEB
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. Acts 19:10WEB
11 God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul, Acts 19:11WEB
12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out. Acts 19:12WEB
13 But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to invoke over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, “We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches.” Acts 19:13WEB
14 There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this. Acts 19:14WEB
15 The evil spirit answered, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?” Acts 19:15WEB
16 The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. Acts 19:16WEB
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. Acts 19:17WEB
18 Many also of those who had believed came, confessing and declaring their deeds. Acts 19:18WEB
19 Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted their price, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver. Acts 19:19WEB
20 So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty. Acts 19:20WEB
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.” Acts 19:21WEB
22 Having sent into Macedonia two of those who served him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while. Acts 19:22WEB
23 About that time there arose no small disturbance concerning the Way. Acts 19:23WEB
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen, Acts 19:24WEB
25 whom he gathered together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, “Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth. Acts 19:25WEB
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. Acts 19:26WEB
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.” Acts 19:27WEB
28 When they heard this they were filled with anger, and cried out, saying, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!” Acts 19:28WEB
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. Acts 19:29WEB
30 When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the disciples didn’t allow him. Acts 19:30WEB
31 Certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater. Acts 19:31WEB
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. Acts 19:32WEB
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. Acts 19:33WEB
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!” Acts 19:34WEB
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? Acts 19:35WEB
36 Seeing then that these things can’t be denied, you ought to be quiet and to do nothing rash. Acts 19:36WEB
37 For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess. Acts 19:37WEB
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. Acts 19:38WEB
39 But if you seek anything about other matters, it will be settled in the regular assembly. Acts 19:39WEB
40 For indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning today’s riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we wouldn’t be able to give an account of this commotion.” Acts 19:40WEB
41 When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly. Acts 19:41WEB
