Acts 使徒行传_Ac_19


1While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus. There he found some disciples 1


2and asked them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" They answered, "No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."


3So Paul asked, "Then what baptism did you receive?" "John's baptism," they replied.


4Paul said, "John's baptism was a baptism of repentance 2. He told the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus."


5On hearing this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.


6When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke 3 in tongues and prophesied 4.


7There were about twelve men in all.


8Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three months, arguing persuasively 5 about the kingdom of God.


9But some of them became obstinate 6; they refused to believe and publicly maligned 7 the Way. So Paul left them. He took the disciples with him and had discussions daily in the lecture hall of Tyrannus.


10This went on for two years, so that all the Jews and Greeks who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord.


11God did extraordinary miracles through Paul,


12so that even handkerchiefs and aprons 8 that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them.


13Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke 9 the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, "In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out."


14Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this.


15One day the evil spirit answered them, "Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you?"


16Then 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.


17When this became known to the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus, they were all seized with fear, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor.


18Many of those who believed now came and openly confessed their evil deeds.


19A number who had practiced sorcery brought their scrolls 10 together and burned them publicly. When they calculated the value of the scrolls, the total came to fifty thousand drachmas.


20In this way the word of the Lord spread widely and grew in power.


21After all this had happened, Paul decided 11 to go to Jerusalem, passing through Macedonia and Achaia. "After I have been there," he said, "I must visit Rome also."


22He sent two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, to Macedonia, while he stayed in the province of Asia a little longer.


23About that time there arose a great disturbance 12 about the Way.


24A silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver shrines 13 of Artemis, brought in no little business for the craftsmen 14.


25He called them together, along with the workmen in related trades, and said: "Men, you know we receive a good income from this business.


26And you see and hear how this fellow Paul has convinced and led astray large numbers of people here in Ephesus and in practically the whole province of Asia. He says that man-made gods are no gods at all.


27There is danger not only that our trade will lose its good name, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be discredited 15, and the goddess herself, who is worshiped throughout the province of Asia and the world, will be robbed of her divine majesty 16."


28When they heard this, they were furious and began shouting: "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"


29Soon the whole city was in an uproar 17. The people seized Gaius and Aristarchus, Paul's traveling companions from Macedonia, and rushed as one man into the theater.


30Paul wanted to appear before the crowd, but the disciples would not let him.


31Even some of the officials of the province, friends of Paul, sent him a message begging him not to venture into the theater.


32The assembly was in confusion: Some were shouting one thing, some another. Most of the people did not even know why they were there.


33The Jews pushed Alexander to the front, and some of the crowd shouted instructions to him. He motioned for silence in order to make a defense 18 before the people.


34But when they realized he was a Jew, they all shouted in unison 19 for about two hours: "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"


35The city clerk quieted the crowd and said: "Men of Ephesus, doesn't all the world know that the city of Ephesus is the guardian 20 of the temple of the great Artemis and of her image, which fell from heaven?


36Therefore, since these facts are undeniable, you ought to be quiet and not do anything rash.


37You have brought these men here, though they have neither robbed temples nor blasphemed our goddess.


38If, then, Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a grievance 21 against anybody, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. They can press charges.


39If there is anything further you want to bring up, it must be settled in a legal assembly.


40As it is, we are in danger of being charged with rioting because of today's events. In that case we would not be able to account for this commotion 22, since there is no reason for it."


41After he had said this, he dismissed the assembly.
