And they said to him, We have not even heard whether there is any Holy Spirit. 3 And he said to them, Into what then were you baptized? And they said, Into John's baptism. 4 Then said Paul, John truly baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spoke with tongues and prophesied. 7 And all the men were about twelve. 8 And he went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, disputing and persuading concerning the kingdom of God. 9 But when some were hardened and did not believe, but spoke evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of Tyrannus. 10 And this continued for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks. 11 And God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 So that handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them, and the evil spirits went out of them. 13 Then certain of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call on those who had evil spirits in the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We command you by Jesus whom Paul preaches. 14 There were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so. 15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you? 16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. 17 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also living in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. 18 And many who believed came confessing and disclosing their deeds. 19 Many of those who practiced magic brought their books together and burned them before all; and they counted up the price of them, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver. 20 So the word of God grew mightily and prevailed. 21 After these things ended, Paul purposed 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 So he sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, but he stayed in Asia for a while. 23 And at that time, there arose no small commotion about the Way. 24 A certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no small gain to the craftsmen; 25 Whom he called together with the workmen of similar occupation, and said, Sirs, you know that by this trade we have our wealth. 26 Moreover, you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are not gods which are made with hands; 27 So that not only is this our craft in danger of being discredited, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana might be despised, and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship. 28 And when they heard this, they were full of wrath and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. 29 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theater. 30 And when Paul wanted to go in to the people, the disciples would not allow him. 31 And certain chiefs of Asia, who were his friends, sent to him, urging him not to adventure himself into the theater. 32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and most did not know why they had come together. 33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander motioned with the hand, and wanted to make his defense to the people. 34 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice cried out for about two hours, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. 35 And when the town clerk had quieted the people, he said, Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is the temple keeper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter? 36 Seeing then that these things cannot be denied, you ought to be quiet, and do nothing rashly. 37 For you have brought here these men, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess. 38 Therefore, if Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a complaint against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls; let them bring charges against one another. 39 But if you seek anything concerning other matters, it shall be settled in a lawful assembly. 40 For we are in danger of being called in question for today's uproar, there being no reason which we may give to account for this disturbance. 41 And when he had spoken these things, he dismissed the assembly.
