Acts 13:2-12

2And as they ministered to the LordG2962, and fastedG3522, the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 saidG3004, SeparateG873 me BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 for the workG2041 whereunto I have called them. 3Then, when they had fastedG3522 and prayedG4336 and laidG2007 their handsG5495 on them, they sentG630 them awayG630.

4So they, being sent forth by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, went downG2718 to Seleucia; and from thence they sailedG636 to CyprusG2954. 5And when they were at Salamis, they proclaimedG2605 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 in the synagoguesG4864 of the JewsG2453: and they had alsoG2532 JohnG2491 as their attendant. 6And when they had goneG1330 through the wholeG3650 islandG3520 unto PaphosG3974, they foundG2147 a certainG5100 sorcerer, a falseG5578 prophetG5578, a JewG2453, whose nameG3686 was Bar-Jesus; 7who wasG1510 with the proconsulG446, Sergius Paulus, a manG435 of understanding. The same calledG4341 unto him BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569, and soughtG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316. 8But Elymas the sorcerer (for soG3779 is his nameG3686 by interpretation) withstood them, seekingG2212 to turn aside the proconsulG446 from the faithG4102. 9But SaulG4569, who is alsoG2532 called PaulG3972, filledG4130 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, fastened his eyes on him, 10and saidG3004, O fullG4134 of all guile and all villany, thou sonG5207 of the devilG1228, thou enemyG2190 of all righteousnessG1343, wilt thou not ceaseG3973 to pervert the right waysG3598 of the LordG2962? 11And nowG1161, beholdG2400, the handG5495 of the LordG2962 isG1510 upon thee, and thou shalt beG1510 blindG5185, not seeingG3708 the sunG2246 for a seasonG2540. And immediatelyG3916 there fellG4098 on him a mist and a darknessG4655; and he went about seekingG2212 some to lead him by the handG5495. 12ThenG5119 the proconsulG446, whenG1096 he sawG3708 what was done, believedG4100, being astonishedG1605 at the teachingG1322 of the LordG2962.
