fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
and from thence to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the first of the district, a `Roman' colony: and we were in this city tarrying certain days.

fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData

and when they had brought them unto the magistrates, they said, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city, 
21 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
and set forth customs which it is not lawful for us to receive, or to observe, being Romans.

fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData

And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely: 
24 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. 
25 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns unto God, and the prisoners were listening to them; 
26 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison-house were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed. 
27 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData

28 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData

30 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
and brought them out and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 
31 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy house.

fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
And they spake the word of the Lord unto him, with all that were in his house. 
33 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately. 
34 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
And he brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his house, having believed in God. 
35 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
But when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, Let those men go. 
36 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData

37 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men that are Romans, and have cast us into prison; and do they now cast us out privily? Nay verily; but let them come themselves and bring us out. 
38 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
And the sergeants reported these words unto the magistrates: and they feared when they heard that they were Romans; 
39 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
and they came and besought them; and when they had brought them out, they asked them to go away from the city. 
40 
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData
