사도행전 16
Korean Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
디모데가 바울과 실라와 함께 가다
16 바울은 더베에 갔다가 루스드라로 갔다. 거기에는 디모데라는 제자가 있었다. 디모데의 어머니는 유대 여자로 그리스도를 믿는 이였고, 아버지는 그리스 사람이었다. 2 루스드라와 이고니온에 있는 믿는 이들이 모두 디모데를 좋게 말하고 있었다. 3 바울은 디모데를 데려가고 싶었다. 그러나 그 고장에 사는 모든 유대 사람이 디모데의 아버지가 그리스 사람이라는 것을 알고 있었기 때문에, 먼저 디모데에게 할례를 베풀었다. 4 바울 일행은 여러 도시를 두루 다니면서, 믿는 이들에게 예루살렘의 사도들과 장로들이 정한 규정을 전해 주며, 그것들을 잘 지키라고 일렀다. 5 그리하여 그곳 교회들은, 그 믿음이 점점 더 튼튼해지고 그 수가 나날이 늘어 갔다.
바울, 마케도니아로 오라는 부르심을 받다
6 바울과 그의 일행이 브루기아와 갈라디아 지방을 두루 거쳐 갔으나, 성령께서 그들이 아시아[a]에서 말씀[b] 전하는 것을 막으셨다. 7 그들이 무시아의 경계에 이르러 비두니아로 들어가려고 하였으나 예수의 영이 그것을 허락하지 않으셨다. 8 그리하여 그들은 무시아를 지나 드로아로 갔다. 9 그곳에서 바울에게 밤중에 환상이 나타났다. 어떤 마케도니아 사람이 바울 앞에 서서 “마케도니아로 건너와서 저희를 도와주십시오.” 하고 간절히 부탁하는 것이었다. 10 바울이 그 환상을 본 뒤에, 우리는 곧 마케도니아로 떠날 준비를 하였다. 그들에게 기쁜 소식을 전하라고 하나님께서 우리를 부르시는 것이라고 확신하였기 때문이다.
루디아의 개종
11 우리는 배를 타고 드로아를 떠나 곧장 사모드라게로 갔다가 이튿날 네압볼리로 갔다. 12 그리고 다시 빌립보로 갔다. 빌립보는 마케도니아의 그쪽 지방에서 아주 중요한 도시이고 로마의 식민지였다. 우리는 빌립보에서 며칠을 묵었다.
13 우리는 안식일에 성문 밖으로 나가, 유대 사람들이 모여서 기도하는 곳이 있으리라고 짐작되는 강가를 찾아갔다. 우리는 거기에 앉아서, 모여 있던 여자들에게 이야기하기 시작하였다. 14 그 가운데에는 루디아라는 여자가 있었다. 그 여자는 두아디라라는 도시 출신으로 값비싼 보라색 옷감 장사였고, 하나님을 섬기는 사람이었다. 루디아가 듣고 있는 가운데, 하나님께서 그 여자의 마음을 열어서 바울의 말을 받아들이게 하셨다. 15 루디아와 그 집안사람들이 세례를 받고 나서, 루디아가 우리를 자기의 집으로 초청하였다. 그 여자는 “저를 주를 믿는 사람으로 여기시면, 제 집에 와 계십시오.” 하고 말하며 우리를 설득하였다.
바울과 실라, 감옥에 갇히다
16 어느 날 우리는 기도하는 곳으로 가다가 점을 치는 귀신[c]이 들린 여종을 하나 만났다. 그 여종은 점을 쳐서 주인들에게 많은 돈을 벌어 주고 있었다. 17 그 여종이 바울과 우리를 따라오면서 큰 소리로 외쳤다. “이분들은 지극히 높으신 하나님의 종들입니다! 이분들은 여러분에게 구원받는 길을 전하고 있습니다!” 18 그 여종이 여러 날을 두고 그렇게 하자, 바울은 괴로운 나머지 몸을 돌려 그 귀신에게 말하였다. “내가 예수 그리스도의 이름으로 명령한다. 그 여자에게서 나가거라!” 그러자 그 귀신이 곧바로 나갔다.
19 그 여종의 주인들은 자기들에게서 돈벌이할 희망이 사라진 것을 보고, 바울과 실라를 붙들어 장터에 있는 관리들 앞으로 끌고 갔다. 20 그들은 바울과 실라를 치안 판사에게 끌고 가서 이렇게 말하였다. “이 사람들은 유대 사람들로서, 우리 도시를 어지럽히고 있습니다! 21 이들은 우리 로마 시민들이 받아들이거나 실천할 수 없는 법에 어긋난 관습을 선전하고 있습니다.”
22 많은 사람이 합세하여 바울과 실라를 공격하였다. 치안 판사는 바울과 실라의 옷을 찢고 매로 때리라고 명령하였고, 23 바울과 실라를 심하게 매질하여 옥에 넣고는 간수에게 단단히 지키라고 명령하였다. 24 간수는 그 명령을 받고 두 사람을 맨 안쪽에 있는 감방에 넣고, 두 발에 나무 차꼬[d]를 채워 놓았다.
25 한밤중쯤에 바울과 실라가 기도하며 하나님께 찬미의 노래를 부르고 있었고, 다른 죄수들은 그 소리를 듣고 있었다. 26 그때 갑자기 강한 지진이 일어났다. 어찌나 심한 지진이던지 감옥이 서 있는 터가 다 흔들렸다. 곧 감옥 문들이 모두 열리고, 죄수들을 벽에 묶어 둔 사슬들이 모두 벽에서 풀려났다. 27 간수는 잠에서 깨어나 문들이 다 열려 있는 것을 보고 죄수들이 모두 달아난 줄로 알고, 칼을 뽑아 자살하려고 하였다. 28 그때 바울이 큰 소리로 외쳤다. “우리 모두 여기 그대로 있으니, 당신의 몸을 해치지 마시오.”
29 간수는 등불을 가져오라고 소리친 다음, 감옥 안으로 뛰어 들어가 무서워 떨면서 바울과 실라 앞에 엎드렸다. 30 그러고는 두 사람을 감옥 밖으로 데리고 나와서 말하였다. “두 분 선생님, 제가 구원을 얻으려면 어떻게 해야 하겠습니까?”
31 두 사람이 대답하였다. “주 예수를 믿으십시오. 그러면 당신과 당신의 집안이 구원을 얻을 것입니다.” 32 그리고 간수와 그 집안사람 모두에게 주의 말씀[e]을 들려주었다. 33 간수는 그날 밤 그 늦은 시각에 두 사람을 데려다가 상처를 씻어 주고, 그 자리에서 온 집안이 함께 세례를 받았다. 34 간수는 두 사람을 자기 집으로 데려가 음식을 대접하였다. 그리고 온 집안이 하나님을 믿게 된 것을 기뻐하였다.
35 아침이 되자 치안 판사는 “그 사람들을 풀어 주어라.” 라고 말하며 부하들을 보냈다.
36 그래서 간수는 바울에게 “치안 판사가 선생님들을 풀어 주라고 부하들을 보냈습니다. 그러니 이제 나와서 평안히 가십시오.” 하고 치안 판사의 말을 전하였다.
37 그러나 바울은 이렇게 대답하였다. “치안 판사는 아무 잘못도 없는 우리를 사람들 앞에서 매질하였습니다. 로마 시민[f]인 우리를 재판도 하지 않고 감옥에 가두었다가 이제 와서 슬그머니 풀어 주겠다는 것입니까? 결코 그럴 수는 없습니다! 그들이 직접 와서 우리를 데리고 나가라고 하십시오!”
38 부하들은 그 말을 치안 판사에게 전하였다. 치안 판사는 두 사람이 로마 시민이라는 말을 듣고 겁이 나서, 39 두 사람에게 가서 사과하였다. 그리고 두 사람을 밖으로 데리고 나와 그 도시에서 떠나 달라고 부탁하였다. 40 감옥에서 나온 바울과 실라는 루디아의 집으로 갔다. 그리고 그곳에 있던 형제들을 격려하고 길을 떠났다.

Timothy Joins Paul and Silas
16 Then he came to (A)Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there, (B)named Timothy, (C)the son of a certain Jewish woman who believed, but his father was Greek. 2 He was well spoken of by the brethren who were at Lystra and Iconium. 3 Paul wanted to have him go on with him. And he (D)took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in that region, for they all knew that his father was Greek. 4 And as they went through the cities, they delivered to them the (E)decrees to keep, (F)which were determined by the apostles and elders at Jerusalem. 5 (G)So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and increased in number daily.
The Macedonian Call
6 Now when they had gone through Phrygia and the region of (H)Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in [a]Asia. 7 After they had come to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the [b]Spirit did not permit them. 8 So passing by Mysia, they (I)came down to Troas. 9 And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A (J)man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” 10 Now after he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go (K)to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them.
Lydia Baptized at Philippi
11 Therefore, sailing from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and the next day came to Neapolis, 12 and from there to (L)Philippi, which is the [c]foremost city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days. 13 And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there. 14 Now a certain woman named Lydia heard us. She was a seller of purple from the city of (M)Thyatira, who worshiped God. (N)The Lord opened her heart to heed the things spoken by Paul. 15 And when she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay.” So (O)she persuaded us.
Paul and Silas Imprisoned
16 Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl (P)possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters (Q)much profit by fortune-telling. 17 This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” 18 And this she did for many days.
But Paul, (R)greatly [d]annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” (S)And he came out that very hour. 19 But (T)when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and (U)dragged them into the marketplace to the authorities.
20 And they brought them to the magistrates, and said, “These men, being Jews, (V)exceedingly trouble our city; 21 and they teach customs which are not lawful for us, being Romans, to receive or observe.” 22 Then the multitude rose up together against them; and the magistrates tore off their clothes (W)and commanded them to be beaten with rods. 23 And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them securely. 24 Having received such a charge, he put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.
The Philippian Jailer Saved
25 But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. 26 (X)Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately (Y)all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed. 27 And the keeper of the prison, awaking from sleep and seeing the prison doors open, supposing the prisoners had fled, drew his sword and was about to kill himself. 28 But Paul called with a loud voice, saying, “Do yourself no harm, for we are all here.”
29 Then he called for a light, ran in, and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas. 30 And he brought them out and said, (Z)“Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31 So they said, (AA)“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes. And immediately he and all his family were baptized. 34 Now when he had brought them into his house, (AB)he set food before them; and he rejoiced, having believed in God with all his household.
Paul Refuses to Depart Secretly
35 And when it was day, the magistrates sent the [e]officers, saying, “Let those men go.”
36 So the keeper of the prison reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go. Now therefore depart, and go in peace.”
37 But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us openly, uncondemned (AC)Romans, and have thrown us into prison. And now do they put us out secretly? No indeed! Let them come themselves and get us out.”
38 And the officers told these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Romans. 39 Then they came and pleaded with them and brought them out, and (AD)asked them to depart from the city. 40 So they went out of the prison (AE)and entered the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they encouraged them and departed.

Timothy Joins Paul and Silas
16 Paul came to Derbe and then to Lystra,(A) where a disciple named Timothy(B) lived, whose mother was Jewish and a believer(C) but whose father was a Greek. 2 The believers(D) at Lystra and Iconium(E) spoke well of him. 3 Paul wanted to take him along on the journey, so he circumcised him because of the Jews who lived in that area, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.(F) 4 As they traveled from town to town, they delivered the decisions reached by the apostles and elders(G) in Jerusalem(H) for the people to obey.(I) 5 So the churches were strengthened(J) in the faith and grew daily in numbers.(K)
Paul’s Vision of the Man of Macedonia
6 Paul and his companions traveled throughout the region of Phrygia(L) and Galatia,(M) having been kept by the Holy Spirit from preaching the word in the province of Asia.(N) 7 When they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus(O) would not allow them to. 8 So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.(P) 9 During the night Paul had a vision(Q) of a man of Macedonia(R) standing and begging him, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” 10 After Paul had seen the vision, we(S) got ready at once to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel(T) to them.
Lydia’s Conversion in Philippi
11 From Troas(U) we put out to sea and sailed straight for Samothrace, and the next day we went on to Neapolis. 12 From there we traveled to Philippi,(V) a Roman colony and the leading city of that district[a] of Macedonia.(W) And we stayed there several days.
13 On the Sabbath(X) 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(Y) named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart(Z) to respond to Paul’s message. 15 When she and the members of her household(AA) were baptized,(AB) she invited us to her home. “If you consider me a believer in the Lord,” she said, “come and stay at my house.” And she persuaded us.
Paul and Silas in Prison
16 Once when we were going to the place of prayer,(AC) we were met by a female slave who had a spirit(AD) by which she predicted the future. She earned a great deal of money for her owners by fortune-telling. 17 She followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, “These men are servants of the Most High God,(AE) who are telling you the way to be saved.” 18 She kept this up for many days. Finally Paul became so annoyed that he turned around and said to the spirit, “In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!” At that moment the spirit left her.(AF)
19 When her owners realized that their hope of making money(AG) was gone, they seized Paul and Silas(AH) and dragged(AI) them into the marketplace to face the authorities. 20 They brought them before the magistrates and said, “These men are Jews, and are throwing our city into an uproar(AJ) 21 by advocating customs unlawful for us Romans(AK) to accept or practice.”(AL)
22 The crowd joined in the attack against Paul and Silas, and the magistrates ordered them to be stripped and beaten with rods.(AM) 23 After they had been severely flogged, they were thrown into prison, and the jailer(AN) was commanded to guard them carefully. 24 When he received these orders, he put them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks.(AO)
25 About midnight(AP) Paul and Silas(AQ) were praying and singing hymns(AR) to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. 26 Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken.(AS) At once all the prison doors flew open,(AT) and everyone’s chains came loose.(AU) 27 The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped.(AV) 28 But Paul shouted, “Don’t harm yourself! We are all here!”
29 The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.(AW) 30 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”(AX)
31 They replied, “Believe(AY) in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved(AZ)—you and your household.”(BA) 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33 At that hour of the night(BB) the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized.(BC) 34 The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he(BD) was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God—he and his whole household.
35 When it was daylight, the magistrates sent their officers to the jailer with the order: “Release those men.” 36 The jailer(BE) told Paul, “The magistrates have ordered that you and Silas be released. Now you can leave. Go in peace.”(BF)
37 But Paul said to the officers: “They beat us publicly without a trial, even though we are Roman citizens,(BG) and threw us into prison. And now do they want to get rid of us quietly? No! Let them come themselves and escort us out.”
38 The officers reported this to the magistrates, and when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were alarmed.(BH) 39 They came to appease them and escorted them from the prison, requesting them to leave the city.(BI) 40 After Paul and Silas came out of the prison, they went to Lydia’s house,(BJ) where they met with the brothers and sisters(BK) and encouraged them. Then they left.
