Acts 16:1-12
1ThenG1161 he cameG2658 toG1519 DerbeG1191 andG2532 LystraG3082: andG2532, beholdG2400, a certainG5100 discipleG3101 wasG2258 thereG1563, namedG3686 TimothyG5095, the sonG5207 of a certainG5100 womanG1135, who was a JewessG2453, and believedG4103; butG1161 his fatherG3962 was a GreekG1672: 2WhoG3739 was well reportedG3140 of byG5259 the brethrenG80 that were atG1722 LystraG3082 andG2532 IconiumG2430. 3HimG5126 wouldG2309 PaulG3972 have to go forthG1831 withG4862 himG846; andG2532 tookG2983 and circumcisedG4059 himG846 becauseG1223 of the JewsG2453 whoG3588 wereG5607 inG1722 thoseG1565 quartersG5117: forG1063 theyG1492 allG537 knew thatG3754 hisG846 fatherG3962 wasG5225 a GreekG1672. 4AndG1161 asG5613 they went throughG1279 the citiesG4172, they deliveredG3860 to themG846 the decreesG1378 to keepG5442, that were ordainedG2919 byG5259 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 whoG3588 were atG1722 JerusalemG2419. 5And soG3303G3767 wereG4732 the churchesG1577 establishedG4732 in the faithG4102, andG2532 increasedG4052 in numberG706 dailyG2250G2596.
6NowG1161 when they had gone throughoutG1330 PhrygiaG5435 andG2532 the regionG5561 of GalatiaG1054, and were forbiddenG2967 byG5259 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 to preachG2980 the wordG3056 inG1722 AsiaG773, 7After they had comeG2064 toG2596 MysiaG3465, they triedG3985 to goG4198 intoG2596 BithyniaG978: butG2532 the SpiritG4151 allowedG1439 themG846 notG3756. 8AndG1161 they passing byG3928 MysiaG3465 came downG2597 toG1519 TroasG5174. 9AndG2532 a visionG3705 appearedG3700 to PaulG3972 inG1223 the nightG3571; There stoodG2258G2476 a manG5100G435 of MacedoniaG3110, beseechingG3870 himG846, sayingG3004, Come overG1224 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109, and helpG997 usG2254. 10AndG1161 afterG5613 he had seenG1492 the visionG3705, immediatelyG2112 we endeavouredG2212 to goG1831 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109, assuredly gatheringG4822 thatG3754 the LordG2962 had calledG4341 usG2248 to preach the gospelG2097 to themG846. 11ThereforeG3767 loosingG321 fromG575 TroasG5174, we came with a straight courseG2113 toG1519 SamothraciaG4543, andG5037 the nextG1966 day toG1519 NeapolisG3496; 12AndG5037 from thereG1564 toG1519 PhilippiG5375, whichG3748 isG2076 the chiefG4413 cityG4172 of that partG3310 of MacedoniaG3109, and a colonyG2862: andG1161 we wereG2258 inG1722 thatG5026 cityG4172 abidingG1304 certainG5100 daysG2250.1
