10Now when he saw the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them.
11Therefore, putting to sea from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and the next day came to Neapolis,
12and from there to Philippi, which is chief of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were spending some days in that very city.
13And on the Sabbath day we went outside the city beside a river, where prayer was customarily made; and having sat down we spoke to the women who assembled together there.
14And a certain woman named Lydia, a dealer of purple cloth of the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God, heard us, whose heart the Lord opened to give heed to the things spoken by Paul.
