New Testament

Acts 13:7-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

7. And he was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. This man, summoning Barnabas and Saul, wanted to hear the Word of God.

8. But Elymas the magician (for so his name is translated) stood against them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the Faith.

9. Then Saul, who is also called Paul, having been filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him,

10. and he said: "So full of every deceit and of all falsehoods, son of the devil, enemy of all justice, you never cease to subvert the righteous ways of the Lord!

11. And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you. And you will be blinded, not seeing the sun for a length of time." And immediately a fog and a darkness fell over him. And wandering around, he was seeking someone who might lead him by the hand.

12. Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, being in wonder over the doctrine of the Lord.

13. And when Paul and those who were with him had sailed from Paphos, they arrived at Perga in Pamphylia. Then John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.
