12And 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.
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.
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.
15And 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.
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:
17The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.
18And 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.
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,
20And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,
21And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.
22And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.
23And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:
24Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
25¶ And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.
26And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.
27And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
29Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
30And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
33And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
34And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.
35And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.
36And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.
37But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.
38And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.
39And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.
40And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
12And from thence to Philippi, which is ‖the chiefe citie of that part of Macedonia, and a Colonie: and we were in that citie abiding certaine dayes.
13And on the Sabboth we went out of the citie by a riuer side, where prayer was wont to be made, & we sate downe, and spake vnto the women which resorted thither.
14¶ And a certaine woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the citie of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard vs: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended vnto the things which were spoken of Paul.
15And when she was baptized, and her houshold, she besought vs, saying, If ye haue iudged me to bee faithfull to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained vs.
16¶ And it came to passe, as we went to prayer, a certaine Damosell possessed with a spirit of ‖diuination, met vs: which brought her masters much gaine by soothsaying.
17The same followed Paul and vs, and cried, saying, These men are the seruants of the most hie God, which shew vnto vs the way of saluation.
18And this did she many dayes: but Paul being grieued, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the Name of Iesus Christ, to come out of her. And he came out the same houre.
19¶ And when her Masters saw that the hope of their gaines was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the ‖market place, vnto the rulers,
20And brought them to the Magistrates, saying, These men being Iewes, do exceedingly trouble our city,
21And teach customes which are not lawfull for vs to receiue, neither to obserue, being Romanes.
22And the multitude rose vp together against them, and the Magistrates rent off their clothes, *and commanded to beate them.
23And when they had layed many stripes vpon them, they cast them into prison, charging the Iaylour to keepe them safely.
24Who hauing receiued such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, & made their feet fast in the stockes.
25¶ And at midnight, Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises vnto God: and the prisoners heard them.
26And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doores were opened, and euery ones bands were loosed.
27And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleepe, and seeing the prison doores open, he drew out his sword, and would haue killed himselfe, supposing that the prisoners had beene fled.
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Doe thy selfe no harme, for we are all heere.
29Then hee called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell downe before Paul and Silas,
30And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I doe to be saued?
31And they saide, Beleeue on the Lord Iesus Christ, and thou shalt be saued, and thy house.
32And they spake vnto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
33And hee tooke them the same houre of the night, and washed their stripes, and was baptized, hee and all his, straightway.
34And when he had brought them into his house, hee set meat before them, and reioyced, beleeuing in God with all his house.
35And when it was day, the Magistrates sent the Sergeants, saying, Let those men goe.
36And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The Magistrates haue sent to let you goe: Now therefore depart, and goe in peace.
37But Paul said vnto them, They haue beaten vs openly vncondemned, being Romanes, and haue cast vs into prison, and now doe they thrust vs out priuily? Nay verily, but let them come themselues, and fetch vs out.
38And the Sergeants tolde these words vnto the Magistrates: and they feared when they heard that they were Romanes.
39And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the citie.
40And they went out of the prison, *and entred into the house of Lydia, and when they had seene the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
