21 And when, having got away from them, we at last sailed away, we came by a direct course to Cos, and on the morrow to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.

² And having found a ship passing over into Phoenicia, we went on board and sailed;

³ and having sighted Cyprus, and left it on the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and made the land at Tyre, for there the ship was to discharge her cargo.

⁴ And having found out the disciples, we remained there seven days; who said to Paul by the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

⁵ But when we had completed the days, we set out and took our journey, all of them accompanying us, with wives and children, till [we were] out of the city. And kneeling down upon the shore we prayed.

⁶ And having embraced one another, we went on board ship, and they returned home.

⁷ And we, having completed the voyage, arrived from Tyre at Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained one day with them.

⁸ And leaving on the morrow, we came to Caesarea; and entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was of the seven, we abode with him.

⁹ Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.

¹⁰ And as we stayed there many days, a certain man, by name Agabus, a prophet, came down from Judaea,

¹¹ and coming to us and taking the girdle of Paul, and having bound his own hands and feet, said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit, The man whose this girdle is shall the Jews thus bind in Jerusalem, and deliver him up into the hands of [the] Gentiles.

¹² And when we heard these things, both we and those of the place besought [him] not to go up to Jerusalem.

¹³ But Paul answered, What do ye, weeping and breaking my heart? for *I* am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

¹⁴ And when he would not be persuaded, we were silent, saying, The will of the Lord be done.

¹⁵ And after these days, having got our effects ready, we went up to Jerusalem.

¹⁶ And [some] of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing [with them] a certain Mnason, a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we were to lodge.

¹⁷ And when we arrived at Jerusalem the brethren gladly received us.
