Acts 19:12-27

12insomuch thatG5620 unto theG3588 sickG770 were carriedG667 awayG667 fromG575 hisG846 bodyG5559 handkerchiefsG4676 orG2228 apronsG4612, andG2532 theG3588 diseasesG3554 departed fromG575 themG846, andG2532 theG3588 evilG4190 spiritsG4151 wentG1607 outG575.

13ButG1161 certainG5100 alsoG2532 ofG4151 theG3588 strolling JewsG2453, exorcistsG1845, took uponG1909 themG3739 toG3004 nameG3686 overG1909 themG3739 whichG3739 had theG3588 evilG4190 spiritsG4151 theG3588 nameG3686 ofG4151 theG3588 LordG2962 JesusG2424, sayingG3004, IG3739 adjureG3726 youG5210 byG1909 JesusG2424 whomG3739 PaulG3972 preacheth.

14AndG1161 thereG1510 wereG1510 sevenG2033 sonsG5207 ofG5207 oneG5100 ScevaG4630, aG1510 JewG2453, aG1510 chiefG749 priestG749, which didG4160 thisG3778.

15AndG2532 theG3588 evilG4190 spiritG4151 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, JesusG2424 IG2532 knowG1097, andG2532 PaulG3972 IG2532 knowG1097; butG1161 whoG3588 areG1510 ye?

16AndG2532 theG3588 manG444 inG1722 whomG3739 theG3588 evilG4190 spiritG4151 wasG1510 leapedG2177 onG1909 themG846, andG2532 mastered bothG2532 ofG1537 themG846, andG2532 prevailed againstG2596 themG846, soG2532 thatG3739 theyG846 fledG1628 outG1537 ofG1537 thatG3739 houseG3624 nakedG1131 andG2532 woundedG5135.

17AndG2532 thisG3778 becameG1096 knownG1110 toG1909 allG3956, bothG5037 JewsG2453 andG2532 GreeksG1672, thatG3778 dwelt at EphesusG2181; andG2532 fearG5401 fellG1968 uponG1909 themG846 allG3956, andG2532 theG3956 nameG3686 ofG2962 theG3956 LordG2962 JesusG2424 was magnifiedG3170.

18ManyG4183 alsoG2532 ofG3588 themG846 thatG4100 had believedG4100 cameG2064, confessingG1843, andG2532 declaringG312 theirG846 deedsG4234.

19AndG2532 notG2532 a few ofG1799 themG846 thatG3956 practised curious arts brought theirG846 booksG976 togetherG2532, andG2532 burnedG2618 themG846 inG2532 theG3956 sightG1799 ofG1799 allG3956: andG2532 theyG846 countedG4860 theG3956 priceG5092 ofG1799 themG846, andG2532 foundG2147 itG846 fifty thousandG3461 piecesG694 ofG1799 silverG694.

20SoG2532 mightilyG2904 grewG837 theG3588 wordG3056 ofG3056 theG3588 LordG2962 andG2532 prevailed.

21NowG1161 afterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778 were ended, PaulG3972 purposedG5087 inG1722 theG3588 spiritG4151, whenG5613 heG2532 had passedG1330 throughG1722 MacedoniaG3109 andG2532 AchaiaG882, toG1519 goG4198 toG1519 JerusalemG2414, sayingG3004, AfterG3326 IG1473 have beenG1096 thereG1563, IG1473 must alsoG2532 seeG3708 RomeG4516.

22AndG2532 having sentG649 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109 twoG1417 ofG3588 themG846 thatG846 ministeredG1247 unto himG846, TimothyG5095 andG2532 ErastusG2037, heG2532 himselfG846 stayedG1907 inG1519 AsiaG773 forG1519 a whileG5550.

23AndG1161 aboutG4012 thatG1565 timeG2540 thereG1161 aroseG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 stir concerningG4012 theG3588 WayG3598.

24ForG1063 a certainG5100 manG5100 namedG3686 DemetriusG1216, a silversmithG695, whichG3588 madeG4160 silverG693 shrinesG3485 ofG3686 Diana, broughtG3930 noG3756 littleG3641 businessG2039 unto theG3588 craftsmenG5079;

25whomG3739 heG2532 gatheredG4867 togetherG4867, withG1537 theG3588 workmenG2040 ofG1537 likeG5108 occupation, andG2532 saidG3004, Sirs, ye knowG1987 thatG3754 byG1537 thisG3778 businessG2039 weG2249 haveG1510 ourG2532 wealth.

26AndG2532 ye seeG2334 andG2532 hearG191, thatG3754 notG3756 aloneG3441 at EphesusG2181, butG235 almostG4975 throughout allG3956 AsiaG773, thisG3778 PaulG3972 hath persuadedG3982 andG2532 turnedG3179 awayG3179 much peopleG3793, sayingG3004 thatG3754 theyG2532 beG1510 noG3756 godsG2316, whichG3748 areG1510 madeG1096 withG1223 handsG5495:

27andG2532 notG3756 onlyG3440 is thereG1161 dangerG2793 thatG3739 thisG3778 ourG2532 tradeG3313 comeG2064 intoG1519 disreputeG557; butG1161 alsoG2532 thatG3739 theG3588 templeG846 ofG3313 theG3588 greatG3173 goddessG2299 Diana beG2532 made ofG3313 noG3756 accountG3049, andG2532 thatG3739 sheG846 shouldG3778 evenG2532 beG2532 deposed fromG2064 herG846 magnificenceG3168, whomG3739 allG3650 AsiaG773 andG2532 theG3588 worldG3625 worshippeth.
