Acts 19:1-13-14 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. While Apollos was in the city of Corinth, Paul was visiting some places on his way to Ephesus. In Ephesus he found some other followers of the Lord.

10. He did this for two years. Because of this work, everyone in Asia, Jews and Greeks, heard the word of the Lord.

11. God used Paul to do some very special miracles.

12. Some people carried away handkerchiefs and clothes that Paul had used and put them on those who were sick. The sick people were healed, and evil spirits left them.

13-14. Some Jews also were traveling around forcing evil spirits out of people. The seven sons of Sceva, one of the leading priests, were doing this. These Jews tried to use the name of the Lord Jesus to make the evil spirits go out of people. They all said, “By the same Jesus that Paul talks about, I order you to come out!”
