They said to him, "No, we haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."  

^19:3He said, "Into what then were you baptized?"  

They said, "Into John's baptism."  

^19:4Paul said, "John indeed baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, on Jesus."  

^19:5When they heard this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus. ^19:6When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke with other languages, and prophesied. ^19:7They were about twelve men in all.

^19:8He entered into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning the Kingdom of God.  

^19:9But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus. ^19:10This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.  

^19:11God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul, ^19:12so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the evil spirits went out. ^19:13But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to name over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches." ^19:14There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.  

^19:15The evil spirit answered, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?" ^19:16The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. ^19:17This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. Fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. ^19:18Many also of those who had believed came, confessing, and declaring their deeds. ^19:19Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. ^19:20So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.  

^19:21Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."  

^19:22Having sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while. 

행19:23 데메드리오가 큰 소동을 일으킴 
^19:23About that time there arose no small stir concerning the Way. ^19:24For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen, ^19:25whom he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, "Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth. ^19:26You see and hear, that not at Ephesus alone, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods, that are made with hands. ^19:27Not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted as nothing, and her majesty destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships."  

^19:28When they heard this they were filled with anger, and cried out, saying, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!" ^19:29The whole city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel. ^19:30When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the disciples didn't allow him. ^19:31Certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater. ^19:32Some therefore cried one thing, and some another, for the assembly was in confusion. Most of them didn't know why they had come together. ^19:33They brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. Alexander beckoned with his hand, and would have made a defense to the people. ^19:34But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice for a time of about two hours cried out, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"  

^19:35When the town clerk had quieted the multitude, he said, "You men of Ephesus, what man is there who doesn't know that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great goddess Artemis, and of the image which fell down from Zeus? ^19:36Seeing then that these things can't be denied, you ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rash. ^19:37For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess. ^19:38If therefore Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a matter against anyone, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls. Let them press charges against one another. ^19:39But if you seek anything about other matters, it will be settled in the regular assembly. ^19:40For indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning this day's riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we wouldn't be able to give an account of this commotion." ^19:41When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.

^20:7On the first day of the week, when the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and continued his speech until midnight. ^20:8There were many lights in the upper chamber where we were gathered together. ^20:9A certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer, being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead. ^20:10Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, "Don't be troubled, for his life is in him."  

^20:11When he had gone up, and had broken bread, and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even until break of day, he departed. ^20:12They brought the boy alive, and were not a little comforted.  

^20:13But we who went ahead to the ship set sail for Assos, there intending to take in Paul, for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land. ^20:14When he met us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene. ^20:15Sailing from there, we came the following day opposite Chios. The next day we touched at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium, and the day after we came to Miletus. ^20:16For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost. 

행20:17 바울의 고별 설교 
^20:17From Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called to himself the elders of the assembly. ^20:18When they had come to him, he said to them, "You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you all the time, ^20:19serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears, and with trials which happened to me by the plots of the Jews; ^20:20how I didn't shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, teaching you publicly and from house to house, ^20:21testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. ^20:22Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there; ^20:23except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions wait for me. ^20:24But these things don't count; nor do I hold my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify to the gospel of the grace of God.  

^20:25Now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching the Kingdom of God, will see my face no more. ^20:26Therefore I testify to you this day that I am clean from the blood of all men, ^20:27for I didn't shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God. ^20:28Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and God which he purchased with his own blood. ^20:29For I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock. ^20:30Men will arise from among your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. ^20:31Therefore watch, remembering that for a period of three years I didn't cease to admonish everyone night and day with tears. ^20:32Now, brothers, I entrust you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up, and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified. ^20:33I coveted no one's silver, or gold, or clothing. ^20:34You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my necessities, and to those who were with me. ^20:35In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"  

^20:36When he had spoken these things, he kneeled down and prayed with them all. ^20:37They all wept a lot, and fell on Paul's neck and kissed him, ^20:38sorrowing most of all because of the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. They brought him on his way to the ship.
