Paul commands in the name of Jesus Christ; the spirit of divination comes out of the girl

바울이 예수 그리스도의 이름으로 명하니 점하는 귀신이 여종에게서 나옴

Acts 16:16–18: the text says, “As we were going to prayer, a certain girl having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling. Following Paul and us, she cried out, ‘These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us a way of salvation!’” She does this for many days. But Paul, becoming greatly annoyed, turns and says to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!” It comes out that very hour.
