13. But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to invoke over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches."

14. There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.

15. The evil spirit answered, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?"

16. The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
