10 And this continued for two years, so that all those inhabiting Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
11 And God was performing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul,
12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons from his skin were brought to the ailing, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits left.
13 Now some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, also attempted to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those having evil spirits, saying, “I adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul proclaims.”
14 And seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish high priest, were doing this.
15 But the evil spirit answering, said to them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; but you, who are you?”
16 And the man in whom was the evil spirit, having leapt on them, having overpowered them all, prevailed against them so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17 Now this became known to all those inhabiting Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks. And fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified.
18 And many of those having believed were coming, confessing and declaring their deeds,
19 and many of those having practiced the magic arts, having brought the books, burned them before all. And they counted up the prices of them and found it five myriads of silverlings.
20 Thus the word of the Lord continued to increase and prevail with might.
