King James Version Help
16Then 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:G1161G2658G1519G1191G2532G3082G2532G2400G5100G3101G2258G1563G3686G5095G5207G5100G1135G2453G4103G1161G3962G1672
2Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.G3739G3140G5259G80G1722G3082G2532G2430
3Him 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.G5126G2309G3972G1831G4862G846G2532G2983G4059G846G1223G2453G3588G5607G1722G1565G5117G1063G1492G537G3754G846G3962G5225G1672
4And 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.G1161G5613G1279G4172G3860G846G1378G5442G2919G5259G652G2532G4245G3588G1722G2419
5And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.G3303G3767G4732G1577G4732G4102G2532G4052G706G2250G2596
6Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,G1161G1330G5435G2532G5561G1054G2967G5259G40G4151G2980G3056G1722G773
7After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.G2064G2596G3465G3985G4198G2596G978G2532G4151G1439G846G3756
8And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.G1161G3928G3465G2597G1519G5174
9And 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.G2532G3705G3700G3972G1223G3571G2258G2476G5100G435G3110G3870G846G2532G3004G1224G1519G3109G997G2254
10And 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.G1161G5613G1492G3705G2112G2212G1831G1519G3109G4822G3754G2962G4341G2248G2097G846
11Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis;G3767G321G575G5174G2113G1519G4543G5037G1966G1519G3496
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.G5037G1564G1519G5375G3748G2076G4413G4172G3310G3109G2862G1161G2258G1722G5026G4172G1304G5100G2250
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.G5037G4521G2250G1831G1854G4172G3844G4215G3757G4335G3543G1511G2532G2523G2980G1135G4905
14And 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.G2532G5100G1135G3686G3070G4211G4172G2363G4576G2316G191G3739G2588G2962G1272G4337G2980G5259G3972
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.G1161G5613G907G2532G846G3624G3870G3004G1487G2919G3165G1511G4103G2962G1525G1519G3450G3624G3306G2532G3849G2248
16And 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:G1161G1096G2257G4198G1519G4335G5100G3814G2192G4151G4436G528G2254G3748G3930G846G2962G4183G2039G3132
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.G3778G2628G3972G2532G2254G2896G3004G3778G444G1526G1401G5310G2316G3748G2605G2254G3598G4991
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.G1161G5124G4160G1909G4183G2250G1161G3972G1278G1994G2532G2036G4151G3853G4671G1722G3686G2424G5547G1831G575G846G2532G1831G846G5610
19And 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,G1161G846G2962G1492G3754G1680G846G2039G1831G1949G3972G2532G4609G1670G1519G58G1909G758
20And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,G2532G4317G846G4755G2036G3778G444G5225G2453G1613G2257G4172
21And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.G2532G2605G1485G3739G1832G3756G1832G2254G3858G3761G4160G5607G4514
22And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.G2532G3793G4911G2596G846G2532G4755G4048G846G2440G2753G4463
23And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:G5037G2007G4183G4127G846G906G1519G5438G3853G1200G5083G846G806
24Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.G3739G2983G5108G3852G906G846G1519G2082G5438G2532G805G846G4228G805G1519G3586
25And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.G1161G2596G3317G3972G2532G4609G4336G5214G2316G1161G1198G1874G846
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.G1161G869G1096G3173G4578G5620G2310G1201G4531G5037G3916G3956G2374G455G2532G3956G1199G447
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.G1161G1200G1096G1853G2532G1492G5438G2374G455G4685G3162G3195G337G1438G3543G1198G1628
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.G1161G3972G5455G3173G5456G3004G4238G4572G3367G2556G1063G2070G537G1759
29Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,G1161G154G5457G1530G2532G1096G1790G4363G3972G2532G4609
30And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?G2532G4254G846G1854G5346G2962G5101G1163G3165G4160G2443G4982
31And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.G1161G2036G4100G1909G2962G2424G5547G2532G4771G4982G2532G4675G3624
32And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.G2532G2980G846G3056G2962G2532G3956G1722G846G3614
33And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.G2532G3880G846G1722G1565G5610G3571G3068G575G4127G2532G907G846G2532G3956G846G3916
34And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.G5037G321G846G1519G3624G3908G5132G3908G2532G21G4100G2316G3832G846G3832
35And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.G1161G1096G2250G4755G649G4465G3004G630G1565G444G630
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.G1161G1200G518G5128G3056G4314G3972G3754G4755G649G2443G630G3568G3767G1831G4198G1722G1515
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.G1161G3972G5346G4314G846G1194G2248G1219G178G5225G4514G444G906G1519G5438G2532G3568G1544G2248G1544G2977G3756G1063G235G2064G846G1806G2248G1806
38And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.G1161G4465G312G5023G4487G4755G2532G5399G191G3754G1526G4514
39And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.G2532G2064G3870G846G2532G1806G2065G1831G4172
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.G1161G1831G1537G5438G1525G1519G3070G2532G1492G80G3870G846G2532G1831
