Acts 13:2-12

2And as they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, Separate me now Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.

3Then, having fasted and prayed, and having laid [their] hands on them, they let [them] go.

4They therefore, having been sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia, and thence sailed away to Cyprus.

5And being in Salamis, they announced the word of 1God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also as [their] attendant.

6And having passed through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain man a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus,

7who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. He, having called Barnabas and Saul to [him], desired to hear the word of 2God.

8But Elymas the magician (for so his name is by interpretation) opposed them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.

9But Saul, who also [is] Paul, filled with [the] Holy Spirit, fixing his eyes upon him,

10said, O full of all deceit and all craft: son of [the] devil, enemy of all righteousness; wilt thou not cease perverting the right paths of [the] Lord?

11And now behold, [the] Lord's hand [is] upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell upon him a mist and darkness; and going about he sought persons who should lead him by the hand.

12Then the proconsul, seeing what had happened, believed, being amazed at the teaching of the Lord.
