44:019:015 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul
           I know; but who are ye?

44:019:016 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and
           overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled
           out of that house naked and wounded.

44:019:017 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at
           Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord
           Jesus was magnified.

44:019:018 And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their
           deeds.

44:019:019 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books
           together, and burned them before all men:  and they counted the
           price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.

44:019:020 So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.

44:019:021 After these things were ended, Paul purposed 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.

44:019:022 So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto
           him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for
           a season.

44:019:023 And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.

44:019:024 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made
           silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the
           craftsmen;

44:019:025 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation,
           and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.

44:019:026 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but
           almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and
           turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which
           are made with hands: 

44:019:027 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at
           nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana
           should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed,
           whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.

44:019:028 And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath,
           and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.

44:019:029 And the whole city was filled with confusion:  and having
           caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s
           companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the
           theatre.

44:019:030 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the
           disciples suffered him not.

44:019:031 And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent
           unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself
           into the theatre.
