6 When they had traveled through the whole island as far as Paphos, they met a magician named Bar-Jesus who was a Jewish false prophet.

7 He was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who had summoned Barnabas and Saul and wanted to hear the word of God.

8 But Elymas the magician (for that is what his name means) opposed them in an attempt to turn the proconsul away from the faith.
