10 And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia [extended land], assuredly gathering that the Lord - Kurios had called us for to preach the Gospel (joyful message) unto them.
11 Therefore loosing from Troas (Trojan) [penetrated], we came with a straight course to Samothracia [a sign of rags], and the next [day] to Neapolis [new city];
12 And from there to Philippi [lover of horses], which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia [extended land], [and] a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.
13 And on the Shabbat [rest] we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont (used to; in the habit of) to be made; and we sat down, and spoke unto the women which resorted [there].
14 And a certain woman named Lydia [travail], a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira [odour of affliction], which worshipped God-The Father, heard [us]: whose heart the Lord - Kurios opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Sha’ul [desired].
15 And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought [us], saying, If you2f have judged me to be faithful to the Lord - Kurios, come into my house, and abide [there]. And she constrained us.
16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain girl possessed with a Spirit [Ruach] of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:
17 The same followed Sha’ul [desired] and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God-The Father, which show unto us the way of salvation.
