Acts 13:6-13

6When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a 1magician, a Jewish 2false prophet whose name was Bar-Jesus, 7who was with the 3proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God. 8But Elymas the 4magician (for so his name is translated) was opposing them, seeking to turn the 5proconsul away from 6the faith. 9But Saul, who was also known as Paul, 78filled with the Holy Spirit, fixed his gaze on him, 10and said, “You who are full of all deceit and fraud, you 9son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to make crooked 10the straight ways of the Lord? 11Now, behold, 11the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and not see the sun for a time.” And immediately a mist and a darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking those who would lead him by the hand. 12Then the 12proconsul believed when he saw what had happened, being amazed at 13the teaching of the Lord.

13Now Paul and his companions put out to sea from 14Paphos and came to 15Perga in 16Pamphylia; but 17John left them and returned to Jerusalem.
