10AndG1161 afterG5613 he had seenG3708 the visionG3588G3705, immediatelyG2112 we endeavouredG2212 to goG1831 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3588G3109, assuredly gatheringG4822 thatG3754 the LordG3588G2962 had calledG4341 usG1473 for to preach the gospelG2097 unto themG846. 11ThereforeG3767 loosingG321 fromG575 TroasG3588G5174, we came with a straight courseG2113 toG1519 SamothraciaG4543, andG5037 the nextG1966 day toG1519 NeapolisG3496; 12AndG5037 from thenceG1564 toG1519 PhilippiG5375, whichG3748 isG1510 the chiefG4413 cityG4172 of that partG3588G3310 of MacedoniaG3588G3109, and a colonyG2862: andG1161 we wereG1510 inG1722 thatG3778 cityG3588G4172 abidingG1304 certainG5100 daysG2250. 13AndG5037 on the sabbathG3588G4521 we wentG1831 out ofG1854 the cityG3588G4172 byG3844 a river sideG4215, whereG3757 prayerG4335 was wontG3543 to be madeG1510; andG2532 we sat downG2523, and spakeG2980 unto the womenG1135 whichG3588 resortedG4905 thither.

14AndG2532 a certainG5100 womanG1135 namedG3686 LydiaG3070, a seller of purpleG4211, of the cityG4172 of ThyatiraG2363, whichG3739 worshippedG4576 GodG3588G2316, heardG191 us: whose heartG3588G2588 the LordG3588G2962 openedG1272, that she attended untoG4337 the things whichG3588 were spokenG2980 ofG5259 PaulG3588G3972. 15AndG1161 whenG5613 she was baptizedG907, andG2532 herG846 householdG3588G3624, she besoughtG3870 us, sayingG3004, IfG1487 ye have judgedG2919 meG1473 to beG1510 faithfulG4103 to the LordG3588G2962, comeG1525 intoG1519 myG1473 houseG3588G3624, and abideG3306 there. AndG2532 she constrainedG3849 usG1473.

16AndG1161 it came to passG1096, as weG1473 wentG4198 toG1519 prayerG4335, a certainG5100 damselG3814 possessedG2192 with a spiritG4151 of divinationG4436 metG528 usG1473, whichG3748 broughtG3930 herG846 mastersG3588G2962 muchG4183 gainG2039 by soothsayingG3132: 17The sameG3778 followedG2628 PaulG3588G3972 andG2532 usG1473, and criedG2896, sayingG3004, TheseG3778 menG3588G444 areG1510 the servantsG1401 of the most highG5310 GodG3588G2316, whichG3748 shew untoG2605 usG1473 the wayG3598 of salvationG4991.
