Acts 13:6-13

Revised Geneva Translation

⁶ So after they had gone through the island, to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer (a false prophet, a Jew) named Bar-Jesus,

⁷ who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He called Barnabas and Saul to him and asked to hear the Word of God.

⁸ But Elymas the sorcerer (for such is the meaning of his name) opposed them and sought to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

⁹ Then Saul (who is also called Paul) being full of the Holy Ghost, stared at him,

¹⁰ and said, “O, child of the devil, the enemy of all righteousness, full of all subtlety and all mischief! Will you not cease to pervert the straight ways of the Lord?!

¹¹ “Now, therefore, behold the hand of the Lord upon you! And you shall be blind, not seeing the Sun for a time!” And immediately a mist and a darkness fell on him. And he went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.

¹² Then the proconsul, when he saw what had been done, believed, and was astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

¹³ Now when Paul and those who were with him had departed by ship from Paphos, they came to Perga of Pamphylia. Then John left them and returned to Jerusalem.
