Acts 16:13-16
13And on 1the SabbathG4521 dayG2250 we wentG1831 outsideG1854 the gateG4439 to a riversideG3844G4215, whereG3757 we were thinkingG3543 that there was a placeG4335 ofG4335 prayerG4335; and we satG2523 downG2523 and began speakingG2980 to the womenG1135 who had assembledG4905. 14A womanG1135 namedG3686 LydiaG3070 was listeningG191; she was a sellerG4211 ofG4211 purpleG4211 fabricsG4211 from the cityG4172 of 2ThyatiraG2363, and 3a worshiperG4576 of GodG2316. 4The LordG2962 5openedG1272 her heartG2588 to respondG4337 to the thingsG2980 spokenG2980 by PaulG3972. 15NowG1161 whenG5613 she and 6her 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 7the placeG4335 of prayerG4335, a slaveG3814 womanG3814 who hadG2192 8a spiritG4151 of divinationG4436 metG5221 us, whoG3748 was bringingG3930 greatG4183 profitG2039 to her mastersG2962 by fortune-tellingG3132.
