Then it happened that, as we were going out to prayer, a certain girl, having a spirit of divination, met with us. She was a source of great profit to her masters, through her divining.
This girl, following Paul and us, was crying out, saying: “These men are servants of the Most High God! They are announcing to you the way of salvation!”
Now she behaved in this way for many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you, in the name of Jesus Christ, to go out from her.” And it went away in that same hour.
But her masters, seeing that the hope of their profit went away, apprehended Paul and Silas, and they brought them to the rulers at the courthouse.
And presenting them to the magistrates, they said: “These men are disturbing our city, since they are Jews.
And they are announcing a way which is not lawful for us to accept or to observe, since we are Romans.”
And the people rushed together against them. And the magistrates, tearing their tunics, ordered them to be beaten with staffs.
