Acts 16:10-18
10And whenG5613 he had seenG3708 the visionG3705, straightway we soughtG2212 to goG1831 forthG1831 into MacedoniaG3109, concluding that GodG2316 had calledG4341 us to preach the gospel unto them.
11SettingG321 sailG321 thereforeG3767 from TroasG5174, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis; 12and from thence to PhilippiG5375, which isG1510 a cityG4172 of MacedoniaG3109, the firstG4413 of the district, a Roman colony: and we wereG1510 in this cityG4172 tarrying certainG5100 daysG2250. 13And on the sabbathG4521 dayG2250 we wentG1831 forthG1831 without the gateG4439 by a riverG4215 side, whereG3757 we supposed there wasG1510 a place of prayerG4335; and we satG2523 downG2523, and spake unto the womenG1135 that wereG1510 comeG1831 togetherG4905. 14And a certainG5100 womanG1135 namedG3686 LydiaG3070, a seller of purple, of the cityG4172 of ThyatiraG2363, oneG5100 that worshipped GodG2316, heardG191 us: whose heartG2588 the LordG2962 openedG1272 to give heed unto the thingsG3739 which were spokenG2980 by PaulG3972. 15And whenG5613 she wasG1510 baptizedG907, and her householdG3624, she besought us, sayingG3004, If ye have judgedG2919 me to beG1510 faithfulG4103 to the LordG2962, comeG1525 into my houseG3624, and abideG3306 there. And she constrained us.
16And it cameG1096 to passG1096, as we were goingG4198 to the placeG1096 of prayerG4335, that a certainG5100 maid having a spiritG4151 of divination met us, who broughtG3930 her mastersG2962 muchG4183 gain by soothsaying. 17The same following after PaulG3972 and us criedG2896 out, sayingG3004, These menG444 areG1510 servantsG1401 of the MostG5310 HighG5310 GodG2316, who proclaimG2605 unto you the wayG3598 of salvationG4991. 18And this she did for manyG4183 daysG2250. But PaulG3972, being sore troubled, turnedG1994 and saidG3004 to the spiritG4151, I chargeG3853 thee in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to comeG1831 out of her. And it cameG1831 out that very hourG5610.
