Acts 16:14-16

14A woman named Lydia, from the city of 1Thyatira, a seller of purple fabrics, 2a worshiper of God, was listening; 3and the Lord 4opened her heart to respond to the things spoken by Paul. 15And when she and 5her household had been baptized, she urged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay.” And she prevailed upon us.

16It happened that as we were going to 6the place of prayer, a slave-girl having 7a spirit of divination met us, who was bringing her masters much profit by fortune-telling.
