Acts 13:5-13

5When they reachedG1096 SalamisG4529, they began to proclaimG2605 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 in 1the synagoguesG4864 of the JewsG2453; and they alsoG2532 hadG2192 2JohnG2491 as their helperG5257. 6When they had goneG1330 throughG1330 the wholeG3650 islandG3520 as farG891 as PaphosG3974, they foundG2147 a 3magicianG3097, a JewishG2453 4falseG5578 prophetG5578 whoseG3739 nameG3686 was Bar-JesusG919, 7whoG3739 was with the 5proconsulG446, SergiusG4588 PaulusG3972, a manG435 of intelligenceG4908. ThisG3778 manG3778 summonedG4341 BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 and soughtG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316. 8But ElymasG1681 the 6magicianG3097 (for soG3779 his nameG3686 is translatedG3177) was opposingG436 them, seekingG2212 to turnG1294 the 7proconsulG446 awayG1294 from 8the faithG4102. 9But SaulG4569, whoG3588 was alsoG2532 known as PaulG3972, 910filledG4092 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, staredG816 at him, 10and saidG3004, “11You who are fullG4134 of allG3956 deceitG1388 and fraudG4468, you 12sonG5207 of the devilG1228, you enemyG2190 of allG3956 righteousnessG1343, will you not stopG3973 makingG1294 crookedG1294 13the straightG2117 waysG3598 of the LordG2962? 11NowG3568, beholdG2400, 14the 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 15proconsulG446 believedG4100 when he sawG3708 what had happenedG1096, being amazedG1605 at 16the teachingG1322 of the LordG2962.

13NowG1161 PaulG3972 and his companionsG3588G4012 putG321 outG321 toG321 seaG321 from 17PaphosG3974 and cameG2064 to 18PergaG4011 in 19PamphyliaG3828; but 20JohnG2491 leftG672 them and returnedG5290 to JerusalemG2414.
