15And when she had been baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be a believer in the Lord, come into my house, and abide. And she constrained us.
16And it came to pass, as we were going to the place of prayer, that a certain bond-maid having a soothsaying spirit met us, who brought her masters much gain by soothsaying.
17This woman followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, who announce to you the way of salvation.
18And this she did for many days. But Paul, being much displeased, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out immediately.
19But her masters seeing that the hope of their gain was gone, laid hold of Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the market-place to the rulers;
20and having brought them before the magistrates, said, These men are grievously disturbing our city, being Jews;
21and they teach customs which it is not lawful for us Romans to receive or observe.
22And the multitude rose up together against them, and the magistrates, tearing off their clothes, commanded to beat them with rods;
23and when they had laid on them many stripes, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely;
24who having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
