11 And (A)God was doing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 (B)so that even handkerchiefs or aprons that had touched his skin were carried away to the sick, and their diseases left them and (C)the evil spirits came out of them. 13 Then some of the itinerant Jewish (D)exorcists (E)undertook to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, (F)“I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul proclaims.” 14 Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this. 15 But the evil spirit answered them, (G)“Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?” 16 And the man in whom was the evil spirit leaped on them, mastered all[a] of them and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. 17 And this became known to all the residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks. And fear fell upon them all, and (H)the name of the Lord Jesus was extolled.

13 Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits(C) tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, “In the name of the Jesus(D) whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out.” 14 Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. 15 One day the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?” 16 Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding.
17 When this became known to the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus,(E) they were all seized with fear,(F) and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor.

Barnabas and Saul on Cyprus
4 So, being sent out (C)by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus. 5 When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God (D)in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had (E)John to (F)assist them. 6 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain (G)magician, (H)a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus. 7 He was with (I)the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God. 8 But Elymas the (J)magician (for that is the meaning of his name) (K)opposed them, seeking to turn (L)the proconsul away from the faith. 9 But Saul, who was also called Paul, (M)filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him 10 and said, “You (N)son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and (O)villainy, will you not stop (P)making crooked (Q)the straight paths of the Lord? 11 And now, behold, (R)the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.” Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking (S)people to lead him by the hand. 12 Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had occurred, for he was astonished at (T)the teaching of the Lord.

On Cyprus
4 The two of them, sent on their way by the Holy Spirit,(C) went down to Seleucia and sailed from there to Cyprus.(D) 5 When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God(E) in the Jewish synagogues.(F) John(G) was with them as their helper.
6 They traveled through the whole island until they came to Paphos. There they met a Jewish sorcerer(H) and false prophet(I) named Bar-Jesus, 7 who was an attendant of the proconsul,(J) Sergius Paulus. The proconsul, an intelligent man, sent for Barnabas and Saul because he wanted to hear the word of God. 8 But Elymas the sorcerer(K) (for that is what his name means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul(L) from the faith.(M) 9 Then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit,(N) looked straight at Elymas and said, 10 “You are a child of the devil(O) and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord?(P) 11 Now the hand of the Lord is against you.(Q) You are going to be blind for a time, not even able to see the light of the sun.”(R)
Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand. 12 When the proconsul(S) saw what had happened, he believed, for he was amazed at the teaching about the Lord.

Ananias and Sapphira
5 But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property, 2 and with his wife's knowledge (A)he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and (B)laid it at the apostles' feet. 3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has (C)Satan filled your heart to lie (D)to the Holy Spirit and (E)to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land? 4 While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but (F)to God.” 5 When Ananias heard these words, he (G)fell down and breathed his last. And (H)great fear came upon all who heard of it. 6 The young men rose and (I)wrapped him up and carried him out and buried him.
7 After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 And Peter said to her, “Tell me whether you[a] sold the land for so much.” And she said, “Yes, for so much.” 9 But Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together (J)to test (K)the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.” 10 Immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. When the young men came in they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 And (L)great fear came upon the whole church and upon all who heard of these things.

Ananias and Sapphira
5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself,(A) but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.(B)
3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan(C) has so filled your heart(D) that you have lied to the Holy Spirit(E) and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land?(F) 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal?(G) What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”(H)
5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died.(I) And great fear(J) seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body,(K) and carried him out and buried him.
7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”
“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”(L)
9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord?(M) Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died.(N) Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.(O) 11 Great fear(P) seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.

A Samaritan Village Rejects Jesus
51 When the days drew near for (E)him to be taken up, (F)he set his face (G)to go to Jerusalem. 52 And (H)he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of (I)the Samaritans, to make preparations for him. 53 But (J)the people did not receive him, because (K)his face was set toward Jerusalem. 54 And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, “Lord, do you want us to tell (L)fire to come down from heaven and consume them?”[a] 55 But he turned and rebuked them.[b] 56 And they went on to another village.

Samaritan Opposition
51 As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven,(C) Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.(D) 52 And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan(E) village to get things ready for him; 53 but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem. 54 When the disciples James and John(F) saw this, they asked, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them[a]?”(G) 55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them. 56 Then he and his disciples went to another village.
