10 When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the Good News to them. 11 Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis; 12 and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this city.

13 On the Sabbath day we went outside of the city by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together. 14 A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us. The Lord opened her heart to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul. 15 When she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay." So she persuaded us.

16 As we were going to prayer, a certain girl having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by fortune telling. 17 Following Paul and us, she cried out, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us a way of salvation!"

10 Kui ta seda nägemust oli näinud, siis me püüdsime kohe välja minna Makedooniasse ja me olime julged selles, et Issand meid oli kutsunud neile Evangeeliumi kuulutama.

11 Me läksime Troast teele ja tulime otsekohe Samotraakesse ja järgmisel päeval Neapolisse

12 ja sealt Filipisse, mis on esimesi linnu tolles Makedoonia osas, asulinn. Sinna linna me jäime peatama mõneks päevaks.

13 Ja hingamispäeval me läksime linnast välja jõe äärde, kus neil oli kombeks käia palvusel, ja istusime maha ning kõnelesime naistele, kes olid kokku tulnud.

14 Ja ka üks jumalakartlik naine, nimega Lüüdia, purpurimüüja Tüatiira linnast, kuulas jutlust. Tema südame avas Issand, et ta pani tähele seda, mida Paulus rääkis.

15 Aga kui tema ja ta pere olid ristitud, palus ta meid ning ütles: „Kui te arvate, et ma olen saanud usklikuks Issandasse, siis tulge mu kotta ja jääge sinna!" Ja ta käis meile peale.

16 Aga sündis, kui me läksime palvusele, et meile tuli vastu tüdruk, kellel oli lausuja vaim. See tõi oma isandaile palju kasu lausumisega.

17 Tema tuli Paulusele ja meile järele, kisendas ning ütles: „Need inimesed on Kõigekõrgema Jumala sulased, kes teile kuulutavad õndsuse teed!"
