2. Now there were in the church at An/och
prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who
was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a
lifelong friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
While they were worshiping the Lord and
fas/ng, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me
Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have
called them.” Then aHer fas/ng and praying they
laid their hands on them and sent them off.

3. So, being sent out 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 in the synagogues of
the Jews. And they had John to assist them. When
they had gone through the whole island as far as
Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a
Jewish false prophet named Bar-­‐Jesus. He was with
the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence,
who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to
hear the word of God.

4. But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of
his name) opposed them, seeking to turn the
proconsul away from the faith.
But Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the
Holy Spirit, looked intently at him and said, “You
son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full
of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making
crooked the straight paths of the Lord? And now,
behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you
will be blind and unable to see the sun for a /me.”
Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and
he went about seeking people to lead him by the
hand.

5. Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what
had occurred, for he was astonished at the
teaching of the Lord.
Now Paul and his companions set sail from
Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. And
John leH them and returned to Jerusalem, but
they went on from Perga and came to An/och in
Pisidia. And on the Sabbath day they went into
the synagogue and sat down.

6. AHer the reading from the Law and the
Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent a
message to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have
any word of encouragement for the people, say
it.” So Paul stood up, and mo/oning with his
hand said:
“Men of Israel and you who fear God, listen.
Acts 13:1-­‐16 (ESV)
