Acts 13:8
But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his by name interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

ὃν τρόπον δὲ Ἰάννης καὶ Ἰαμβρῆς ἀντέστησαν Μωϋσεῖ οὕτως καὶ οὗτοι ἀνθίστανται τῇ ἀληθείᾳ ἄνθρωποι κατεφθαρμένοι τὸν νοῦν ἀδόκιμοι περὶ τὴν πίστιν·
Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
διελθόντες δὲ τὴν νῆσον ἄχρι Πάφου εὗρον τινὰ μάγον ψευδοπροφήτην Ἰουδαῖον ᾧ ὄνομα Βαριησοῦς
And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus:
Ἀλέξανδρος ὁ χαλκεὺς πολλά μοι κακὰ ἐνεδείξατο· ἀποδῴη αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ·
Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:
Ἐν Ἰόππῃ δέ τις ἦν μαθήτρια ὀνόματι Ταβιθά ἣ διερμηνευομένη λέγεται Δορκάς· αὕτη ἦν πλήρης ἀγαθῶν ἔργων καὶ ἐλεημοσυνῶν ὧν ἐποίει
Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
τότε ἰδὼν ὁ ἀνθύπατος τὸ γεγονὸς ἐπίστευσεν ἐκπλησσόμενος ἐπὶ τῇ διδαχῇ τοῦ κυρίου
Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
וַיִּקְרָא גַּם-פַּרְעֹה לַֽחֲכָמִים וְלַֽמְכַשְּׁפִים וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ גַם-הֵם חַרְטֻמֵּי מִצְרַיִם בְּלַֽהֲטֵיהֶם כֵּֽן׃
Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
וַיִּקַּח חֲנַנְיָה הַנָּבִיא אֶת-הַמּוֹטָה מֵעַל צַוַּאר יִרְמְיָה הַנָּבִיא וַֽיִּשְׁבְּרֵֽהוּ׃
Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and brake it.
Ἀνὴρ δέ τις ὀνόματι Σίμων προϋπῆρχεν ἐν τῇ πόλει μαγεύων καὶ ἐξιστῶν τὸ ἔθνος τῆς Σαμαρείας λέγων εἶναί τινα ἑαυτὸν μέγαν
But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:
εὑρίσκει οὗτος πρῶτος τὸν ἀδελφὸν τὸν ἴδιον Σίμωνα καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ Εὑρήκαμεν τὸν Μεσσίαν ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον ὅ Χριστός·
He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
וַיִּגַּשׁ צִדְקִיָּהוּ בֶֽן-כְּנַעֲנָה וַיַּכֶּה אֶת-מִיכָיְהוּ עַל-הַלֶּחִי וַיֹּאמֶר אֵי-זֶה עָבַר רֽוּחַ-יְהוָה מֵֽאִתִּי לְדַבֵּר אוֹתָֽךְ׃
But Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near, and smote Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me to speak unto thee?
וְאֶל-שְׁמַעְיָהוּ הַנֶּחֱלָמִי תֹּאמַר לֵאמֹֽר׃
Thus shalt thou also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,
Καὶ ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ ηὔξανεν καὶ ἐπληθύνετο ὁ ἀριθμὸς τῶν μαθητῶν ἐν Ἰερουσαλὴμ σφόδρα πολύς τε ὄχλος τῶν ἱερέων ὑπήκουον τῇ πίστει
And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.
וַיְהִי׀ בַּשָּׁנָה הַהִיא בְּרֵאשִׁית מַמְלֶכֶת צִדְקִיָּה מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה (בשנת) בַּשָּׁנָה הָֽרְבִעִית בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַחֲמִישִׁי אָמַר אֵלַי חֲנַנְיָה בֶן-עַזּוּר הַנָּבִיא אֲשֶׁר מִגִּבְעוֹן בְּבֵית יְהוָה לְעֵינֵי הַכֹּהֲנִים וְכָל-הָעָם לֵאמֹֽר׃
And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
