Acts 16:1-12
1NowG1161 Paul alsoG2532 cameG2658 to 1DerbeG1191 and to 2LystraG3082. And a discipleG3101 was thereG1563, namedG3686 3TimothyG5095, the sonG5207 of a 4JewishG2453 womanG1135 who was a believerG4103, but his fatherG3962 was a GreekG1672, 2and he was wellG3140 spokenG3140 of by 5the brothersG80 and sisters who were in 6LystraG3082 and 7IconiumG2430. 3PaulG3972 wantedG2309 thisG3778 manG3778 to leaveG1831 with him; and he 8tookG2983 him and circumcisedG4059 him becauseG1223 of the JewsG2453 who were in thoseG1565 partsG5117, for they allG537 knewG3609 that his fatherG3962 was a GreekG1672. 4NowG1161 whileG5613 they were passingG1279 throughG1279 the citiesG4172, they were deliveringG3860 9the ordinancesG1378 for them to followG5442 which had been determinedG2919 by 10the apostlesG652 and 11eldersG4245 in JerusalemG2414. 5SoG3767 12the churchesG1577 were being strengthenedG4732 13in the faithG4102, and were 14increasingG4052 in numberG706 dailyG2596G2250.
6They passedG1330 throughG1330 the 1516PhrygianG5435 and 17GalatianG1054 regionG5561, after being forbiddenG2967 by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 to speakG2980 the wordG3056 in 1819AsiaG773; 7and after they cameG2064 to 20MysiaG3465, they were tryingG3985 to goG4198 into 21BithyniaG978, and the 22SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 did not allowG1439 them; 8and passingG3928 by 23MysiaG3465, they wentG2597 downG2597 to 24TroasG5174. 925And a visionG3705 appearedG3708 to PaulG3972 in the nightG3571: a manG435 of 26MacedoniaG3110 was standingG2476 and pleadingG3870 with him, and sayingG3004, “ComeG1224 overG1224 to MacedoniaG3109 and helpG997 us.” 10WhenG5613 he had seenG3708 27the visionG3705, 28we immediatelyG2112 soughtG2212 to leaveG1831 for MacedoniaG3109, concludingG4822 that GodG2316 had calledG4341 us to 29preachG2097 the gospelG2097 to them.
11SoG3767 after settingG321 sailG321 from 30TroasG5174, we ranG2113 31aG2113 straightG2113 courseG2113 to SamothraceG4543, and on the followingG1897 day to NeapolisG3496; 12and fromG2547 thereG2547 to 32PhilippiG5375, whichG3748 is a leadingG4413 cityG4172 of the districtG3310 of 33MacedoniaG3109, 34a Roman colonyG2862; and we were spendingG1304 someG5100 daysG2250 in thisG3778 cityG4172.
