Acts 16:15 in Context — Acts 16

13 Le jour du sabbat, nous nous rendîmes, hors de la porte, vers une rivière, où nous pensions que se trouvait un lieu de prière. Nous nous assîmes, et nous parlâmes aux femmes qui étaient réunies.

14 L’une d’elles, nommée Lydie, marchande de pourpre, de la ville de Thyatire, était une femme craignant Dieu, et elle écoutait. Le Seigneur lui ouvrit le cœur, pour qu’elle fût attentive à ce que disait Paul.

15 Lorsqu’elle eut été baptisée, avec sa famille, elle nous fit cette demande: Si vous me jugez fidèle au Seigneur, entrez dans ma maison, et demeurez-y. Et elle nous pressa par ses instances.

16 Comme nous allions au lieu de prière, une servante qui avait un esprit de Python, et qui, en devinant, procurait un grand profit à ses maîtres, vint au-devant de nous,

17 et se mit à nous suivre, Paul et nous. Elle criait: Ces hommes sont les serviteurs du Dieu Très-Haut, et ils vous annoncent la voie du salut.
