Acts 16:6-13

6They passedG1330 throughG1330 the 12PhrygianG5435 and 3GalatianG1054 regionG5561, having been forbiddenG2967 by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 to speakG2980 the wordG3056 in 45AsiaG773; 7and after they cameG2064 to 6MysiaG3465, they were tryingG3985 to goG4198 into 7BithyniaG978, and the 8SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 did not permitG1439 them; 8and passingG3928 by 9MysiaG3465, they cameG2597 downG2597 to 10TroasG5174. 911A visionG3705 appearedG3708 to PaulG3972 in the nightG3571: a manG435 of 12MacedoniaG3110 was standingG2476 and appealingG3870 to him, and sayingG3004, “ComeG1224 overG1224 to MacedoniaG3109 and helpG997 us.” 10WhenG5613 he had seenG3708 13the visionG3705, immediatelyG2112 14we soughtG2212 to 15goG1831 into MacedoniaG3109, concludingG4822 that GodG2316 had calledG4341 us to 16preachG2097 the gospelG2097 to them.

11SoG3767 puttingG321 out to seaG321 from 17TroasG5174, we ranG2113 18a straightG2113 courseG2113 to SamothraceG4543, and on the day followingG1897 to NeapolisG3496; 12and from thereG2547 to 19PhilippiG5375, whichG3748 is a leadingG4413 cityG4172 of the districtG3310 of 20MacedoniaG3109, 21a Roman colonyG2862; and we were stayingG1304 in thisG3778 cityG4172 for someG5100 daysG2250. 13And on 22the 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.
