Matthew⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then came he to Derba and to Lystra. And beholde a certayne disciple was there named Timotheus, a womans sonne whiche was a Ieweas and beleued: but hys father was a Greke. ² Of whom reported well, the brethren of Lystra and Iconium. ³ The same Paule woulde that he shoulde go forthe with hym, and toke and circumcysed him, because of the Iewes whiche were in those quarters: for they knewe all, that hys father was a Greke. ⁴ As they went through the cities, they delyuered them the decrees for to kepe, ordeyned of the Apostles and elders, whiche were at Ierusalem. ⁵ And so were the congregacions stablysheth in the fayth, and encreased in noumbre daylye. ⁶ When they had gone through oute Phrygia, and the regyon of Galacia, and were forbidden of the holy ghost to preache the worde in Asia ⁷ they came to Misia, and sought to go into Bethinia. But the spirite suffered them not. ⁸ Then they went ouer Misia, and came doune to Troada. ⁹ And a visyon appeared to Paule in the nyght. There stode a man of Macedonia, and prayed hym, saiynge: come into Macedonia, and helpe vs. ¹⁰ After he had sene the vysyon, certifyed that the Lorde had called vs for to preache the Gospell vnto them. ¹¹ Then loused we forth from Troada, and with a strayght course came to Samothracia, and the nexte daye to Neapolym, ¹² and from thence to Phylyppos, which is the chiefe citie in the partes of Macedonia, and a fre citie. We were in that citie abydynge certayne dayes. ¹³ And on the Saboth dayes we wente out of the citie besydes a ryuer, where men were wonte to praye. And we sate doune, and spake vnto the women which resorted thyther. ¹⁴ And a certayne woman named Lydia a seller of purple of the citie of Thiatyra, which worshypped God, gaue vs audience. Whose hart the Lorde opened, that she attended vnto the thynges whiche Paul spake. ¹⁵ When she was baptysed and her housholde, she besoughte vs saiyng: Yf ye thynke that I beleue on the Lord come into my house, and abyde there. And she constrayned vs. ¹⁶ And it fortuned as we went to prayer, a certayne damsell possessed with a spirite that prophesyeth, met vs, which brought her mayster and maysters muche vauntage with prophesiynge. ¹⁷ The same folowed Paul and vs, & cryed, saiynge: These men are the seruauntes of the moste hye God, which shew vnto vs that waye of saluacyon. ¹⁸ And thys dyd she manye dayes. But Paule not content turned aboute, and sayed to the spirite: I commaunde the in the name of Iesu Christe, that thou come oute of her. And he came out the same houre.
