Acts 16:10-18
10WhenG5613 he had seenG3708 1the visionG3705, immediatelyG2112 2we soughtG2212 to 3goG1831 into MacedoniaG3109, concludingG4822 that GodG2316 had calledG4341 us to 4preachG2097 the gospelG2097 to them.
11SoG3767 puttingG321 out to seaG321 from 5TroasG5174, we ranG2113 6a straightG2113 courseG2113 to SamothraceG4543, and on the day followingG1897 to NeapolisG3496; 12and from thereG2547 to 7PhilippiG5375, whichG3748 is a leadingG4413 cityG4172 of the districtG3310 of 8MacedoniaG3109, 9a Roman colonyG2862; and we were stayingG1304 in thisG3778 cityG4172 for someG5100 daysG2250. 13And on 10the SabbathG4521 dayG2250 we wentG1831 outsideG1854 the gateG4439 to a riversideG3844G4215, whereG3757 we were supposingG3543 that there would be a placeG4335 of prayerG4335; and we satG2523 downG2523 and began speakingG2980 to the womenG1135 who had assembledG4905. 14A womanG1135 namedG3686 LydiaG3070, from the cityG4172 of 11ThyatiraG2363, a sellerG4211 of purpleG4211 fabricsG4211, 12a worshiperG4576 of GodG2316, was listeningG191; 13and the LordG2962 14openedG1272 her heartG2588 to respondG4337 to the thingsG2980 spokenG2980 by PaulG3972. 15And whenG5613 she and 15her householdG3624 had been baptizedG907, she urgedG3870 us, sayingG3004, “IfG1487 you have judgedG2919 me to be faithfulG4103 to the LordG2962, comeG1525 into my houseG3624 and stayG3306.” And she prevailedG3849 upon us.
16It happenedG1096 that as we were goingG4198 to 16the placeG4335 of prayerG4335, a slave-girlG3814 havingG2192 17a spiritG4151 of divinationG4436 metG5221 us, whoG3748 was bringingG3930 her mastersG2962 muchG4183 profitG2039 by fortune-tellingG3132. 17FollowingG2628 afterG2628 PaulG3972 and us, she kept cryingG2896 out, sayingG3004, “TheseG3778 menG444 are bond-servantsG1401 of 18the MostG5310 HighG5310 GodG2316, whoG3748 are proclaimingG2605 to you 19the wayG3598 of salvationG4991.” 18She continued doingG4160 thisG3778 for manyG4183 daysG2250. But PaulG3972 was greatlyG1278 annoyedG1278, and turnedG1994 and saidG3004 to the spiritG4151, “I commandG3853 you 20in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to comeG1831 out of her!” And it cameG1831 out at that veryG846 21momentG5610.
