Acts 16:1-27

16:1

Then
<1161>

came he
<2658> (5656)

to
<1519>

Derbe
<1191>

and
<2532>

Lystra
<3082>_:

and
<2532>_,

behold
<2400> (5628)_,

a certain
<5100>

disciple
<3101>

was
<2258> (5713)

there
<1563>_,

named
<3686>

Timotheus
<5095>_,

the son
<5207>

of a certain
<5100>

woman
<1135>_,

which was a Jewess
<2453>_,

and believed
<4103>_;

but
<1161>

his father
<3962>

[was] a Greek
<1672>_:

16:2

Which
<3739>

was well reported
<3140> (5712)

of by
<5259>

the brethren
<80>

that were at
<1722>

Lystra
<3082>

and
<2532>

Iconium
<2430>_.

16:3

Him
<5126>

would
<2309> (5656)

Paul
<3972>

have to go forth
<1831> (5629)

with
<4862>

him
<846>_;

and
<2532>

took
<2983> (5631)

and circumcised
<4059> (5627)

him
<846>

because
<1223>

of the Jews
<2453>

which
<3588>

were
<5607> (5752)

in
<1722>

those
<1565>

quarters
<5117>_:

for
<1063>

they knew
<1492> (5715)

all
<537>

that
<3754>

his
<846>

father
<3962>

was
<5225> (5707)

a Greek
<1672>_.

16:4

And
<1161>

as
<5613>

they went through
<1279> (5711)

the cities
<4172>_,

they delivered
<3860> (5707)

them
<846>

the decrees
<1378>

for to keep
<5442> (5721)_,

that were ordained
<2919> (5772)

of
<5259>

the apostles
<652>

and
<2532>

elders
<4245>

which
<3588>

were at
<1722>

Jerusalem
<2419>_.

16:5

And so
<3303> <3767>

were
<4732> (0)

the churches
<1577>

established
<4732> (5712)

in the faith
<4102>_,

and
<2532>

increased
<4052> (5707)

in number
<706>

daily
<2250> <2596>_.

16:6

Now
<1161>

when they had gone throughout
<1330> (5631)

Phrygia
<5435>

and
<2532>

the region
<5561>

of Galatia
<1054>_,

and were forbidden
<2967> (5685)

of
<5259>

the Holy
<40>

Ghost
<4151>

to preach
<2980> (5658)

the word
<3056>

in
<1722>

Asia
<773>_,

16:7

After they were come
<2064> (5631)

to
<2596>

Mysia
<3465>_,

they assayed
<3985> (5707)

to go
<4198> (5738)

into
<2596>

Bithynia
<978>_:

but
<2532>

the Spirit
<4151>

suffered
<1439> (5656)

them
<846>

not
<3756>_.

16:8

And
<1161>

they passing by
<3928> (5631)

Mysia
<3465>

came down
<2597> (5627)

to
<1519>

Troas
<5174>_.

16:9

And
<2532>

a vision
<3705>

appeared
<3700> (5681)

to Paul
<3972>

in
<1223>

the night
<3571>_;

There stood
<2258> (5713) <2476> (5761)

a man
<5100> <435>

of Macedonia
<3110>_,

and prayed
<3870> (5723)

him
<846>_,

<2532>

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

Come over
<1224> (5631)

into
<1519>

Macedonia
<3109>_,

and help
<997> (5657)

us
<2254>_.

16:10

And
<1161>

after
<5613>

he had seen
<1492> (5627)

the vision
<3705>_,

immediately
<2112>

we endeavoured
<2212> (5656)

to go
<1831> (5629)

into
<1519>

Macedonia
<3109>_,

assuredly gathering
<4822> (5723)

that
<3754>

the Lord
<2962>

had called
<4341> (5766)

us
<2248>

for to preach the gospel
<2097> (5670)

unto them
<846>_.

16:11

Therefore
<3767>

loosing
<321> (5685)

from
<575>

Troas
<5174>_,

we came with a straight course
<2113> (5656)

to
<1519>

Samothracia
<4543>_,

and
<5037>

the next
<1966> (5752)

[day] to
<1519>

Neapolis
<3496>_;

16:12

And
<5037>

from thence
<1564>

to
<1519>

Philippi
<5375>_,

which
<3748>

is
<2076> (5748)

the chief
<4413>

city
<4172>

of that part
<3310>

of Macedonia
<3109>_,

[and] a colony
<2862>_:

and
<1161>

we were
<2258> (5713)

in
<1722>

that
<5026>

city
<4172>

abiding
<1304> (5723)

certain
<5100>

days
<2250>_.

{the chief: or, the first}

16:13

And
<5037>

on the sabbath
<4521> <2250>

we went
<1831> (5627)

out of
<1854>

the city
<4172>

by
<3844>

a river side
<4215>_,

where
<3757>

prayer
<4335>

was wont
<3543> (5712)

to be made
<1511> (5750)_;

and
<2532>

we sat down
<2523> (5660)_,

and spake
<2980> (5707)

unto the women
<1135>

which resorted
<4905> (5631)

[thither]. {sabbath: Gr. sabbath day}

16:14

And
<2532>

a certain
<5100>

woman
<1135>

named
<3686>

Lydia
<3070>_,

a seller of purple
<4211>_,

of the city
<4172>

of Thyatira
<2363>_,

which worshipped
<4576> (5740)

God
<2316>_,

heard
<191> (5707)

[us]: whose
<3739>

heart
<2588>

the Lord
<2962>

opened
<1272> (5656)_,

that she attended
<4337> (5721)

unto the things which were spoken
<2980> (5746)

of
<5259>

Paul
<3972>_.

16:15

And
<1161>

when
<5613>

she was baptized
<907> (5681)_,

and
<2532>

her
<846>

household
<3624>_,

she besought
<3870> (5656)

[us], saying
<3004> (5723)_,

If
<1487>

ye have judged
<2919> (5758)

me
<3165>

to be
<1511> (5750)

faithful
<4103>

to the Lord
<2962>_,

come
<1525> (5631)

into
<1519>

my
<3450>

house
<3624>_,

and abide
<3306> (5657)

[there]. And
<2532>

she constrained
<3849> (5662)

us
<2248>_.

16:16

And
<1161>

it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,

as we
<2257>

went
<4198> (5740)

to
<1519>

prayer
<4335>_,

a certain
<5100>

damsel
<3814>

possessed
<2192> (5723)

with a spirit
<4151>

of divination
<4436>

met
<528> (5658)

us
<2254>_,

which
<3748>

brought
<3930> (5707)

her
<846>

masters
<2962>

much
<4183>

gain
<2039>

by soothsaying
<3132> (5740)_:

{of divination: or, of Python}

16:17

The same
<3778>

followed
<2628> (5660)

Paul
<3972>

and
<2532>

us
<2254>_,

and cried
<2896> (5707)_,

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

These
<3778>

men
<444>

are
<1526> (5748)

the servants
<1401>

of the most high
<5310>

God
<2316>_,

which
<3748>

shew
<2605> (5719)

unto us
<2254>

the way
<3598>

of salvation
<4991>_.

16:18

And
<1161>

this
<5124>

did she
<4160> (5707) <1909>

many
<4183>

days
<2250>_.

But
<1161>

Paul
<3972>_,

being grieved
<1278> (5666)_,

turned
<1994> (5660)

and
<2532>

said
<2036> (5627)

to the spirit
<4151>_,

I command
<3853> (5719)

thee
<4671>

in
<1722>

the name
<3686>

of Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>

to come
<1831> (5629)

out of
<575>

her
<846>_.

And
<2532>

he came out
<1831> (5627)

the same
<846>

hour
<5610>_.

16:19

And
<1161>

when her
<846>

masters
<2962>

saw
<1492> (5631)

that
<3754>

the hope
<1680>

of their
<846>

gains
<2039>

was gone
<1831> (5627)_,

they caught
<1949> (5637)

Paul
<3972>

and
<2532>

Silas
<4609>_,

and drew
<1670> (5656)

[them] into
<1519>

the marketplace
<58>

unto
<1909>

the rulers
<758>_,

{marketplace: or, court}

16:20

And
<2532>

brought
<4317> (5631)

them
<846>

to the magistrates
<4755>_,

saying
<2036> (5627)_,

These
<3778>

men
<444>_,

being
<5225> (5723)

Jews
<2453>_,

do exceedingly trouble
<1613> (5719)

our
<2257>

city
<4172>_,

16:21

And
<2532>

teach
<2605> (5719)

customs
<1485>_,

which
<3739>

are
<1832> (0)

not
<3756>

lawful
<1832> (5748)

for us
<2254>

to receive
<3858> (5738)_,

neither
<3761>

to observe
<4160> (5721)_,

being
<5607> (5752)

Romans
<4514>_.

16:22

And
<2532>

the multitude
<3793>

rose up together
<4911> (5627)

against
<2596>

them
<846>_:

and
<2532>

the magistrates
<4755>

rent off
<4048> (5660)

their
<846>

clothes
<2440>_,

and commanded
<2753> (5707)

to beat
<4463> (5721)

[them].

16:23

And
<5037>

when they had laid
<2007> (5631)

many
<4183>

stripes
<4127>

upon them
<846>_,

they cast
<906> (5627)

[them] into
<1519>

prison
<5438>_,

charging
<3853> (5660)

the jailor
<1200>

to keep
<5083> (5721)

them
<846>

safely
<806>_:

16:24

Who
<3739>_,

having received
<2983> (5761)

such
<5108>

a charge
<3852>_,

thrust
<906> (5627)

them
<846>

into
<1519>

the inner
<2082>

prison
<5438>_,

and
<2532>

made
<805> (0)

their
<846>

feet
<4228>

fast
<805> (5662)

in
<1519>

the stocks
<3586>_.

16:25

And
<1161>

at
<2596>

midnight
<3317>

Paul
<3972>

and
<2532>

Silas
<4609>

prayed
<4336> (5740)_,

and sang praises
<5214> (5707)

unto God
<2316>_:

and
<1161>

the prisoners
<1198>

heard
<1874> (5711)

them
<846>_.

16:26

And
<1161>

suddenly
<869>

there was
<1096> (5633)

a great
<3173>

earthquake
<4578>_,

so that
<5620>

the foundations
<2310>

of the prison
<1201>

were shaken
<4531> (5683)_:

and
<5037>

immediately
<3916>

all
<3956>

the doors
<2374>

were opened
<455> (5681)_,

and
<2532>

every one's
<3956>

bands
<1199>

were loosed
<447> (5681)_.

16:27

And
<1161>

the keeper of the prison
<1200>

awaking
<1096> (5637)

out of his sleep
<1853>_,

and
<2532>

seeing
<1492> (5631)

the prison
<5438>

doors
<2374>

open
<455> (5772)_,

he drew out
<4685> (5671)

his sword
<3162>_,

and would
<3195> (5707)

have killed
<337> (5721)

himself
<1438>_,

supposing
<3543> (5723)

that the prisoners
<1198>

had been fled
<1628> (5755)_.
