Acts 16:15-33

Whiston(i) 15 And when she was baptized, and all her houshold, she besought [us], saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to God, come into my house and abide [there.] And she constrained us. 16 And it came to pass, as we went to the house of prayer, a certain damsel, possessed with a spirit of divination, met us, which brought her masters much gain by thus soothsaying: 17 She followed Paul, and us,and cried, saying, These are the servants of the most high God, who preach unto you the way of salvation. 18 And this did she many days. But Paul turned to the spirit, and being grieved said, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out immediately. 19 But when the masters of the servant woman saw that they were deprived of the gains which they had by her, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew [them] into the court, unto the rulers, 20 And brought them to the Captains, saying, These men being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city, 21 And teach customs which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to do, being Romans. 22 And a great multitude rose up together against them, crying out. Then the captains rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat [them.] 23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast [them] into prison, charging the jaylor to have them kept safely. 24 Who receiving such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. 25 And at the middle of the night Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: But immediately all the doors opened, and every one's bands were loosed. 27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his deep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thy self no harm; for we are all here. 29 Then he called for a light, and leaped in, and trembling, fell down at the feet of Paul and Silas; 30 And brought them out, and securing the rest, he said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, with all that were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed [their] stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
