Barnabas and Saul on Cyprus

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

16 The plans of the heart belong to man,
    but (A)the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
(B)All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
    but the Lord (C)weighs the spirit.[a]
(D)Commit your work to the Lord,
    and your plans will be established.
(E)The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
    even (F)the wicked for the day of trouble.
Everyone who is arrogant in heart is (G)an abomination to the Lord;
    (H)be assured, he will not go unpunished.
By (I)steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for,
    and by (J)the fear of the Lord one (K)turns away from evil.
When a man's ways please the Lord,
    (L)he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
(M)Better is a little with righteousness
    than great revenues with injustice.
(N)The heart of man plans his way,
    but (O)the Lord establishes his steps.
