*
And he went into the synagogue ,
and spake boldly for the space of three months ,
disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God .
*
But when divers were hardened ,
and believed not ,
but spake evil of that way before the multitude ,
he departed from them ,
and separated the disciples ,
disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus .
*
And this continued by the space of two years ;
so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus ,
both Jews and Greeks .
*
And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul :
*
So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons ,
and the diseases departed from them ,
and the evil spirits went out of them .
*
Then certain of the vagabond Jews ,
exorcists ,
took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus ,
saying ,
We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth .
*
And there were seven sons of one Sceva ,
a Jew ,
and chief of the priests ,
which did so .
*
And the evil spirit answered and said ,
Jesus I know ,
and Paul I know ;
but who are ye ?
*
And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them ,
and overcame them ,
and prevailed against them ,
so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded .
*
And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus ;
and fear fell on them all ,
and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified .
*
And many that believed came ,
and confessed ,
and shewed their deeds .
*
Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together ,
and burned them before all men :
and they counted the price of them ,
and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver .
