Acts 16:12-14
New Matthew Bible
12 and from there to Philippi, which is the chief city in the parts of Macedonia, and a Roman colony.
We were in that city for several days. 13 And on the Sabbath days we went out of the city, beside a river where people were accustomed to pray. And we sat down and spoke to the women who gathered there. 14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira who worshipped God, listened to us, and the Lord opened her heart so that she attended to the things that Paul said.

Acts 16:12-14
New International Version
12 From there we traveled to Philippi,(A) a Roman colony and the leading city of that district[a] of Macedonia.(B) And we stayed there several days.
13 On the Sabbath(C) we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there. 14 One of those listening was a woman from the city of Thyatira(D) named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart(E) to respond to Paul’s message.
