Paul Sees a Vision of a Macedonian Asking For His Help, And Makes Plans To Go

And they went through the Phrygian[a] and Galatian region, having been forbidden[b] by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. And having come opposite Mysia, they were trying to proceed into Bithynia and the Spirit of [c] Jesus did not allow them. And having passed-by[d] Mysia, they came down to Troas. And a vision appeared to Paul during the night— a certain Macedonian man[e] was standing and appealing-to him, and saying, “Having crossed to Macedonia, help us”. 10 And when he saw the vision, immediately we[f] sought to go forth to Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to announce-the-good-news-to them.
