Acts 16:17-19

Expanded Bible

¹⁷ This girl followed Paul and us, shouting, “These men are ·servants [slaves] of the Most High God. They are telling you ·how you can be saved [^Lthe way/path of salvation].”

¹⁸ She kept this up for many days. This ·bothered [annoyed; exasperated] Paul, so he turned and said to the spirit, “By the ·power [^Lname] of Jesus Christ, I command you to come out of her!” ·Immediately, [^LThat very hour] the spirit came out.

¹⁹ When the owners of the ·servant [slave] girl saw that their ·source for making money [hope of profit] was gone, they grabbed Paul and Silas and dragged them before the ·city rulers [leaders; authorities] in the marketplace.
