Acts 16:16-18

16It happenedG1096 that as we were goingG4198 to 1the placeG4335 of prayerG4335, a slave-girlG3814 havingG2192 2a 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 3the MostG5310 HighG5310 GodG2316, whoG3748 are proclaimingG2605 to you 4the 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 5in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to comeG1831 out of her!” And it cameG1831 out at that veryG846 6momentG5610.
