10. And this happened over a period of two years with the intended result that all the ones inhabiting [the Roman Province of] Asia heard the dvar Hashem, both Yehudim and Yevanim.
11. And gevaltike moftim and niflaot Hashem effected at the hands of Rav Sha'ul,
12. so that when a handkerchief or an apron touched the skin of Rav Sha'ul and was brought to the cholim, the machlot (sicknesses) and the shedim (demons) left them.
13. And some traveling Jewish exorcists attempted to use haShem of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu Yehoshua over the ones possessed of ruchot ra'ot, saying, "I exorcize and cast you out by the Yehoshua whom Rav Sha'ul preaches!"
14. And there were doing this very thing shivat banim of a certain Skeva, a Jewish "Kohen Gadol."
15. And in reply the ruach hara'ah (the shed, demon) said to them, "I am acquainted with Yehoshua, I have da'as of Sha'ul, but, you, who are you?!"
16. And the ish in whom was the ruach hara'ah leaped upon them and subdued all [shivah] of them, and overpowered them, so that they fled, naked and wounded, from the bais.
17. And this became known to all the Yehudim and also the Yevanim inhabiting Ephesus, and pachad (terror) fell upon all of them, and they were exalting haShem of Adoneinu Yehoshua.
18. And many of the ones having come to emunah were making vidduy of their ma'asim, disclosing them.
19. And a number of the ones who had practiced kishshuf (magic, sorcery) brought together their occult sfarim and were burning them publicly; and they added up the price of these occult sfarim, and they found it to be fifty thousand silver pieces.
20. So the dvar Hashem, the Besuras HaGeulah, was growing with ko'ach and was prevailing.
21. And when these things were fulfilled, Rav Sha'ul resolved in his ruach to travel through Macedonia and Achaia and go to Yerushalayim, saying "After I have gone there, it is necessary for me also to see Rome."
22. So Rav Sha'ul sent to Macedonia two of the mesharetim (ministers, servants) with him --Timotiyos and Erastus, while he stayed a little while longer in [the Province of] Asia.
