10 This went on for two years, so that everyone living in the province of Asia—both Jews and Greeks—heard the Lord’s word.
11 God was doing unusual miracles through Paul.
12 Even the small towels and aprons that had touched his skin were taken to the sick, and their diseases were cured and the evil spirits left them.
13 There were some Jews who traveled around throwing out evil spirits. They tried to use the power of the name of the Lord Jesus against some people with evil spirits. They said, "In the name of the Jesus whom Paul preaches, I command you!"
14 The seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this.
15 The evil spirit replied, "I know Jesus and I’m familiar with Paul, but who are you?"
16 The person who had an evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all with such force that they ran out of that house naked and wounded.
