Acts 16:16-24

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.

19But when her mastersG2962 sawG3708 that their hopeG1680 of 7profitG2039 was 8goneG1831, they seizedG1949 9PaulG3972 and SilasG4609 and 10draggedG1670 them into the marketG58 placeG58 beforeG1909 the authoritiesG758, 20and when they had broughtG4317 them to the chiefG4755 magistratesG4755, they saidG3004, “TheseG3778 menG444 are throwingG1613 our cityG4172 into confusionG1613, beingG5225 JewsG2453, 21and 11are proclaimingG2605 customsG1485 whichG3739 it is not lawfulG1832 for us to acceptG3858 orG3761 to observeG4160, beingG1510 12RomansG4514.” 22The crowdG3793 roseG4911 up togetherG4911 againstG2596 them, and the chiefG4755 magistratesG4755 toreG4048 their 13robesG2440 offG4048 them and proceeded to orderG2753 14them to be 15beatenG4463 with rodsG4463. 23When they had struckG2007 them with manyG4183 blowsG4127, they threwG906 them into prisonG5438, commandingG3853 16the jailerG1200 to guardG5083 them securelyG806; 2417and he, having receivedG2983 suchG5108 a commandG3852, threwG906 them into the innerG2082 prisonG5438 and fastenedG805 their feetG4228 in 18the 19stocksG3586.
