Acts 13:2-12
2While they were 1servingG3008 the LordG2962 and fastingG3522, 2the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 saidG3004, “SetG873 3BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 apartG873 for Me for 4the workG2041 to whichG3739 I have calledG4341 them.” 3ThenG5119, when they had fastedG3522, 5prayedG4336, and 6laidG2007 their handsG5495 onG2007 them, 7they sentG630 them awayG630.
4SoG3767, being 8sentG1599 outG1599 by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, they wentG2718 downG2718 to SeleuciaG4581 and fromG1564 thereG1564 they sailedG636 to 9CyprusG2954. 5When they reachedG1096 SalamisG4529, they began to proclaimG2605 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 in 10the synagoguesG4864 of the JewsG2453; and they alsoG2532 hadG2192 11JohnG2491 as their helperG5257. 6When they had goneG1330 throughG1330 the wholeG3650 islandG3520 as farG891 as PaphosG3974, they foundG2147 a 12magicianG3097, a JewishG2453 13falseG5578 prophetG5578 whoseG3739 nameG3686 was Bar-JesusG919, 7whoG3739 was with the 14proconsulG446, SergiusG4588 PaulusG3972, a manG435 of intelligenceG4908. ThisG3778 manG3778 summonedG4341 BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 and soughtG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316. 8But ElymasG1681 the 15magicianG3097 (for soG3779 his nameG3686 is translatedG3177) was opposingG436 them, seekingG2212 to turnG1294 the 16proconsulG446 awayG1294 from 17the faithG4102. 9But SaulG4569, whoG3588 was alsoG2532 known as PaulG3972, 1819filledG4092 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, staredG816 at him, 10and saidG3004, “20You who are fullG4134 of allG3956 deceitG1388 and fraudG4468, you 21sonG5207 of the devilG1228, you enemyG2190 of allG3956 righteousnessG1343, will you not stopG3973 makingG1294 crookedG1294 22the straightG2117 waysG3598 of the LordG2962? 11NowG3568, beholdG2400, 23the handG5495 of the LordG2962 is upon you, and you will be blindG5185 and not seeG991 the sunG2246 for a timeG2540.” And immediatelyG3916 a mistG887 and a darknessG4655 fellG4098 upon him, and he wentG4013 aboutG4013 seekingG2212 those whoG5497 would leadG5497 him byG5497 theG5497 handG5497. 12ThenG5119 the 24proconsulG446 believedG4100 when he sawG3708 what had happenedG1096, being amazedG1605 at 25the teachingG1322 of the LordG2962.
