¹⁷That the God of our Lord Iesus Christ the Father of glorie, may giue vnto you the Spirit of wisedome and reuelation ^‖in the knowledge of him:

¹⁸(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

¹⁸(For many walke, of whome I haue told you often, and now tell you euen weeping, that they are the enemies of the crosse of Christ:

¹THEREFORE, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.

¹¶ Therefore, my brethren, dearely beloued and longed for, my ioy and crowne, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearely beloued.

¹⁴Notwithstanding, yee haue well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.

¹⁵Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the Gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no Church communicated with mee, as concerning giuing and receiuing, but ye onely.

¹MOREOVER, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;

¹¶ Moreouer, brethren, wee do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the Churches of Macedonia,

³That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

³That which wee haue seene and heard, declare we vnto you, that ye also may haue felowship with vs; and truely our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Sonne Iesus Christ.

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.
