Acts 16:6–15

⁶Now when they had gone throughout ^mPhrygia and the region of ⁿGalatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in ^oAsia, ⁷After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into ^pBithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not. ⁸And they passing by Mysia came down to ^qTroas. ⁹And ^ra vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of ^xMacedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us. ¹⁰And after he had seen ^rthe vision, immediately ^swe endeavoured to go into ^xMacedonia, ^tassuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them. ¹¹Therefore loosing from ^qTroas, we ^ucame with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis; ¹²And from thence to ^wPhilippi, which is ^||the chief city of that part of ^xMacedonia, and ^ya colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.

¹³And 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. ¹⁴And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of ^zThyatira, ^awhich worshipped God, heard us: whose ^bheart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. ¹⁵And when she was baptized, ^cand her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and ^dabide there. And she ^econstrained us.
