Acts 16:6-13

6They passedG1330 throughG1330 the 12PhrygianG5435 and 3GalatianG1054 regionG5561, after being 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 allowG1439 them; 8and passingG3928 by 9MysiaG3465, they wentG2597 downG2597 to 10TroasG5174. 911And a visionG3705 appearedG3708 to PaulG3972 in the nightG3571: a manG435 of 12MacedoniaG3110 was standingG2476 and pleadingG3870 with him, and sayingG3004, “ComeG1224 overG1224 to MacedoniaG3109 and helpG997 us.” 10WhenG5613 he had seenG3708 13the visionG3705, 14we immediatelyG2112 soughtG2212 to leaveG1831 for MacedoniaG3109, concludingG4822 that GodG2316 had calledG4341 us to 15preachG2097 the gospelG2097 to them.

11SoG3767 after settingG321 sailG321 from 16TroasG5174, we ranG2113 17aG2113 straightG2113 courseG2113 to SamothraceG4543, and on the followingG1897 day to NeapolisG3496; 12and fromG2547 thereG2547 to 18PhilippiG5375, whichG3748 is a leadingG4413 cityG4172 of the districtG3310 of 19MacedoniaG3109, 20a Roman colonyG2862; and we were spendingG1304 someG5100 daysG2250 in thisG3778 cityG4172. 13And on 21the 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.
