1599 Geneva Bible
13 [a]And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city, besides a river, where they were wont to [b]pray: and we sat down, and spake unto the women, which were come together.
14 [c]And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of the Thyatirians, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things, which Paul spake.
15 [d]And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into mine house, and abide there: and she constrained us.
