17And this came to the ears of all those, Jews and Greeks, who were living at Ephesus; and fear came on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was made great.
18And a number of those who had faith came and made a public statement of their sins and all their acts.
19And a great number of those who were experts in strange arts took their books and put them on the fire in front of everyone: and when the books were valued they came to fifty thousand bits of silver.
20So the word of the Lord was increased very greatly and was full of power.
21Now after these things were ended, Paul came to a decision that when he had gone through Macedonia and Achaia he would go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I have a desire to see Rome.
22And having sent two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, into Macedonia, he himself went on living in Asia for a time.
23And about that time a great outcry took place about the Way.
