Acts of the Apostles 19:18

In context

16And the man in whom the evil spirit was leapt on them, overpowered them all and beat them, so that they fled from that house naked and wounded. 17This became known to everyone in Ephesus, Jews and Greeks alike. Fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor. 18Many of those who had believed came forward, confessing and disclosing what they had been doing; 19and a good number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in front of everyone. When the value was added up, it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver. 20So the word of the Lord spread and grew in power.
