Acts 19:14 in Context — Acts 19

12 De tal manera que aun se llevaban sobre los enfermos los sudarios y los pañuelos de su cuerpo, y las enfermedades se iban de ellos, y los malos espíritus salían de ellos.

13 Y algunos de los Judíos, exorcistas vagabundos, tentaron á invocar el nombre del Señor Jesús sobre los que tenían espíritus malos, diciendo: Os conjuro por Jesús, el que Pablo predica.

14 Y había siete hijos de un [tal] Sceva, Judío, príncipe de los sacerdotes, que hacían esto.

15 Y respondiendo el espíritu malo, dijo: A Jesús conozco, y sé [quién es] Pablo: mas vosotros ¿quiénes sois?

16 Y el hombre en quien estaba el espíritu malo, saltando en ellos, y enseñoreándose de ellos, pudo más que ellos, de tal manera que huyeron de aquella casa desnudos y heridos.
