절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Paul in Ephesus While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul traveled across the hill country to Ephesus, where he met some of the Lord's followers.	And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
2	He asked them, “When you put your faith in Jesus, were you given the Holy Spirit?” “No!” they answered. “We have never even heard of the Holy Spirit.”	He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
3	“Then why were you baptized?” Paul asked. They answered, “Because of what John taught.”	And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.
4	Paul replied, “John baptized people so they would turn to God. But he also told them someone else was coming, and they should put their faith in him. Jesus is the one that John was talking about.”	Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
5	After the people heard Paul say this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.	When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6	Then Paul placed his hands on them. The Holy Spirit was given to them, and they spoke unknown languages and prophesied.	And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
7	There were about twelve men in this group.	And all the men were about twelve.
8	For three months Paul went to the synagogue and talked bravely with the people about God's kingdom. He tried to win them over,	And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
9	but some of them were stubborn and refused to believe. In front of everyone they said terrible things about God's Way. Paul left and took the followers with him to the lecture hall of Tyrannus. He spoke there every day	But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10	for two years, until every Jew and Gentile in Asia had heard the Lord's message.	And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
11	The Sons of Sceva God gave Paul the power to work great miracles.	And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
12	People even took handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched Paul's body, and they carried them to everyone who was sick. All of the sick people were healed, and the evil spirits went out.	So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
13	Some Jewish men started going around trying to force out evil spirits by using the name of the Lord Jesus. They said to the spirits, “Come out in the name of that same Jesus that Paul preaches about!”	Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
14	Seven sons of a high priest named Sceva were doing this,	And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
15	when an evil spirit said to them, “I know Jesus! And I have heard about Paul. But who are you?”	And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
16	Then the man with the evil spirit jumped on them and beat them up. They ran out of the house, naked and bruised.	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.
17	When the Jews and Gentiles in Ephesus heard about this, they were so frightened that they praised the name of the Lord Jesus.	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.
18	Many who were followers now started telling everyone about the evil things they had been doing.	And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
19	Some who had been practicing witchcraft even brought their books and burned them in public. These books were worth about 50,000 silver coins.	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.
20	So the Lord's message spread and became even more powerful.	So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
21	The Riot in Ephesus After all this had happened, Paul decided to visit Macedonia and Achaia on his way to Jerusalem. Paul had said, “From there I will go on to Rome.”	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.
22	So he sent his two helpers, Timothy and Erastus, to Macedonia. But he stayed on in Asia for a while.	So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
23	At that time there was serious trouble because of the Lord's Way.	And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.
24	A silversmith named Demetrius had a business that made silver models of the temple of the goddess Artemis. Those who worked for him earned a lot of money.	For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
25	Demetrius brought together everyone who was in the same business and said: Friends, you know we make a good living at this.	Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.
26	But you have surely seen and heard how this man Paul is upsetting a lot of people, not only in Ephesus, but almost everywhere in Asia. He claims that the gods we humans make are not really gods at all.	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:
27	Everyone will start saying terrible things about our business. They will stop respecting the temple of the goddess Artemis, who is worshiped in Asia and all over the world. Our great goddess will be forgotten!	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.
28	When the workers heard this, they got angry and started shouting, “Great is Artemis, the goddess of the Ephesians!”	And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
29	Soon the whole city was in a riot, and some men grabbed Gaius and Aristarchus, who had come from Macedonia with Paul. Then everyone in the crowd rushed to the place where the town meetings were held.	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.
30	Paul wanted to go out and speak to the people, but the Lord's followers would not let him.	And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
31	A few of the local officials were friendly to Paul, and they sent someone to warn him not to go.	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.
32	Some of the people in the meeting were shouting one thing, and others were shouting something else. Everyone was completely confused, and most of them did not even know why they were there.	Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
33	Several of the Jewish leaders pushed a man named Alexander to the front of the crowd and started telling him what to say. He motioned with his hand and tried to explain what was going on.	And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people.
34	But when the crowd saw that he was Jewish, they all shouted for two hours, “Great is Artemis, the goddess of the Ephesians!”	But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35	Finally, a town official made the crowd be quiet. Then he said: People of Ephesus, who in the world doesn't know that our city is the center for worshiping the great goddess Artemis? Who doesn't know that her image which fell from heaven is right here?	And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
36	No one can deny this, and so you should calm down and not do anything foolish.	Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
37	You have brought men in here who have not robbed temples or spoken against our goddess.	For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
38	If Demetrius and his workers have a case against these men, we have courts and judges. Let them take their complaints there.	Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another.
39	But if you want to do more than that, the matter will have to be brought before the city council.	But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
40	We could easily be accused of starting a riot today. There is no excuse for it! We cannot even give a reason for this uproar.	For we are in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.
41	After saying this, he told the people to leave.	And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
