The Acts 19:6-16 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

6. And Paul having laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

7. And all the men were about twelve.

8. And entering into the synagogue, he spoke boldly during three months, reasoning and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.

9. But when some were hardened and disbelieved, speaking evil of the way before the multitude, he left them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

10. And this took place for two years, so that all that inhabited Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.

11. And God wrought no ordinary miracles by the hands of Paul,

12. so that even napkins or aprons were brought from his body and put upon the sick, and the diseases left them, and the wicked spirits went out.

13. And certain of the Jewish exorcists also, who went about, took in hand to call upon those who had wicked spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preaches.

14. And there were certain men, seven sons of Sceva, Jewish high priest, who were doing this.

15. But the wicked spirit answering said to them, Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; but ye, who are ye?

16. And the man in whom the wicked spirit was leaped upon them, and having mastered both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
