Acts 19:19-21

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁹ And many of those who had practiced curious, magical arts collected their books and [throwing them, ^[a]book after book, on the pile] burned them in the sight of everybody. When they counted the value of them, they found it amounted to 50,000 pieces of silver (^[b]about $9,300).

²⁰ Thus the Word of the Lord [concerning the ^[c]attainment through Christ of eternal salvation in the kingdom of God] grew and spread and intensified, prevailing mightily.

²¹ Now after these events Paul determined in the [Holy] Spirit that he would travel through Macedonia and Achaia (most of Greece) and go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must visit Rome also.
