▼
Or that
district of Macedonia and d a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days. 13 And e on the Sabbath day we went outside the gate f to the riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we g sat down and spoke to the women who had come together. 14 One who heard us was a woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, a seller of purple goods h who was a worshiper of God. The Lord i opened her heart to pay attention to what was said by Paul. 15 And after she was baptized j and her household as well, she urged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay.” And she k prevailed upon us. Paul and Silas in Prison

of s the Most High God, who proclaim to you t the way of salvation.”
