Fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. 18 Many who had believed came confessing and disclosing their practices. 19 A large number of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in front of everyone. They calculated the value of the books and found it to be fifty thousand silver coins. 20 So the word of the Lord continued to grow and prevail mightily.
