Acts 19:1-5 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul traveled through the interior of the country and came [down] to Ephesus where he found some disciples.

2. He said to them, “Did you receive the holy Spirit when you became believers?” They answered him, “We have never even heard that there is a holy Spirit.”

3. He said, “How were you baptized?” They replied, “With the baptism of John.”

4. Paul then said, “John baptized with a baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus.”

5. When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
