Acts 16:11-16 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

11. Therefore, sailing from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrake, and the next day came to Neapolis,

12. and from there to Philippi, which is the principal city of that part of Makedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days.

13. And on the Sabbath day we went outside the city by a river, where there used to be prayer. And having sat down we were speaking to the women who met there.

14. And a certain woman named Ludia, a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira, worshipping Elohim, was hearing, whose heart the Master did open to pay attention to what Sha’ul said.

15. And when she was immersed, and her household, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be believing in the Master, come to my house and stay.” And she urged us.

16. And it came to be, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of Puthon, did meet us, who brought her masters much profit by foretelling.
