Serving in Cyprus
4After the Holy Spirit sent them on their way, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus. 5In Salamis they proclaimed God’s word in the Jewish synagogues. John was with them as their assistant. 6They traveled throughout the island until they arrived at Paphos. There they found a certain man named Bar-Jesus, a Jew who was a false prophet and practiced sorcery. 7He kept company with the governor of that province, an intelligent man named Sergius Paulus. The governor sent for Barnabas and Saul since he wanted to hear God’s word. 8But Elymas the sorcerer (for that’s what people understood his name meant) opposed them, trying to steer the governor away from the faith. 9Empowered by the Holy Spirit, Saul, also known as Paul, glared at Bar-Jesus and 10said, “You are a deceiver and trickster! You devil! You attack anything that is right! Will you never stop twisting the straight ways of the Lord into crooked paths? 11Listen! The Lord’s power is set against you. You will be blind for a while, unable even to see the daylight.” At once, Bar-Jesus’ eyes were darkened, and he began to grope about for someone to lead him around by the hand. 12When the governor saw what had taken place, he came to believe, for he was astonished by the teaching about the Lord.
