11So setting sail from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and the next day to Neapolis;
12and from there to Philippi, which is the foremost city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. We stayed some days in that city.
13On the Sabbath day we went outside the city by a river, where prayer was customarily made, and sitting down we started speaking to the assembled women.
14A certain woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God, really listened, whose heart the Lord opened to give heed to the things spoken by Paul.
