Acts 19:13-19
13But alsoG2532 someG5100 of the JewishG2453 1exorcistsG1845, who wentG4022 from placeG4022 to placeG4022, attemptedG2021 to nameG3687 overG1909 thoseG3588 who hadG2192 the evilG4190 spiritsG4151 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, sayingG3004, “I adjureG3726 you by JesusG2424 whomG3739 PaulG3972 preachesG2784.”
14SevenG2033 sonsG5207 of oneG5100 ScevaG4630, a JewishG2453 chiefG749 priestG749, were doingG4160 thisG3778.
15And the evilG4190 spiritG4151 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, “I recognizeG1097 JesusG2424, and I knowG1987 aboutG1987 PaulG3972, but whoG5101 are you?”
16And the manG444, in whomG3739 was the evilG4190 spiritG4151, leapedG2177 on them and subduedG2634 allG297 of them and overpoweredG2480 them, soG5620 that they fledG1628 out of that houseG3624 nakedG1131 and woundedG5135.
17ThisG3778 becameG1096 knownG1110 to allG3956, bothG5037 JewsG2453 and GreeksG1672, who livedG2730 in 2EphesusG2181; and fearG5401 fellG1968 upon them allG3956 and the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424 was being magnifiedG3170.
18ManyG4183 alsoG5037 of thoseG3588 who had believedG4100 kept comingG2064, confessingG1843 and disclosingG312 their practicesG4234.
19And manyG2425 of thoseG3588 who practicedG4238 magicG4021 broughtG4851 their booksG976 togetherG4851 and began burningG2618 them in the sightG1799 of everyoneG3956; and they countedG4860 up the priceG5092 of them and foundG2147 it 3fiftyG3461G4002 thousandG3461 4piecesG694 of silverG694.
