AC-16:1 Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a
certain disciple was
there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a
Jewess, and
believed; but his father [was] a Greek:
AC-16:2 Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at
Lystra and
Iconium.
AC-16:3 Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and
circumcised him
because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew
all that his
father was a Greek.
AC-16:4 And as they went through the cities, they delivered
them the decrees
for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which
were at
Jerusalem.
AC-16:5 And so were the churches established in the faith, and
increased in
number daily.
AC-16:6 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the
region of Galatia,
and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,
AC-16:7 After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into
Bithynia: but
the Spirit suffered them not.
AC-16:8 And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.
AC-16:9 And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood
a man of
Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and
help us.
AC-16:10 And after he had seen the vision, immediately we
endeavoured to go
into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us
for to preach
the gospel unto them.
AC-16:11 Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight
course to
Samothracia, and the next [day] to Neapolis;
AC-16:12 And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city
of that part of
Macedonia, [and] a colony: and we were in that city abiding
certain days.
AC-16:13 And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river
side, where
prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the
women which
resorted [thither].
AC-16:14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple,
of the city of
Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard [us]: whose heart the Lord
opened, that
she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.
AC-16:15 And when she was baptized, and her household, she
besought [us],
saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come
into my house,
and abide [there]. And she constrained us.
AC-16:16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain
damsel possessed
with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters
much gain by
soothsaying:
AC-16:17 The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying,
These men are the
servants of the most high God, which show unto us the way of
salvation.
AC-16:18 And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved,
turned and said
to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to
come out of her.
And he came out the same hour.
AC-16:19 And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains
was gone, they
caught Paul and Silas, and drew [them] into the marketplace unto
the rulers,
AC-16:20 And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men,
