21:1 And
when
we
had
parted
from
them
and
set
sail,
we
came
by
a
straight
course
to
Cos,
and
the
next
day
to
Rhodes,
and
from
there
to
Patara.
21:2 And
having
found
a
ship
crossing
to
Phoenicia,
we
went
aboard
and
set
sail.
21:3 When
we
had
come
in
sight
of
Cyprus,
leaving
it
on
the
left
we
sailed
to
Syria
and
landed
at
Tyre,
for
there
the
ship
was
to
unload
its
cargo.
21:4 And
having
sought
out
the
disciples,
we
stayed
there
for
seven
days.
And
through
the
Spirit
they
were
telling
Paul
not
to
go
on
to
Jerusalem.
21:5 When
our
days
there
were
ended,
we
departed
and
went
on
our
journey,
and
they
all,
with
wives
and
children,
accompanied
us
until
we
were
outside
the
city.
And
kneeling
down
on
the
beach,
we
prayed
21:6 and
said
farewell
to
one
another.
Then
we
went
on
board
the
ship,
and
they
returned
home.
21:7 When
we
had
finished
the
voyage
from
Tyre,
we
arrived
at
Ptolemais,
and
we
greeted
the
brothers
and
stayed
with
them
for
one
day.
21:8 On
the
next
day
we
departed
and
came
to
Caesarea,
and
we
entered
the
house
of
Philip
the
evangelist,
who
was
one
of
the
seven,
and
stayed
with
him.
21:9 He
had
four
unmarried
daughters,
who
prophesied.
21:10 While
we
were
staying
for
many
days,
a
prophet
named
Agabus
came
down
from
Judea.
21:11 And
coming
to
us,
he
took
Paul's
belt
and
bound
his
own
feet
and
hands
and
said,
"Thus
says
the
Holy
Spirit,
'This
is
how
the
Jews
at
Jerusalem
will
bind
the
man
who
owns
this
belt
and
deliver
him
into
the
hands
of
the
Gentiles.'"
21:12 When
we
heard
this,
we
and
the
people
there
urged
him
not
to
go
up
to
Jerusalem.
21:13 Then
Paul
answered,
"What
are
you
doing,
weeping
and
breaking
my
heart
For
I
am
ready
not
only
to
be
imprisoned
but
even
to
die
in
Jerusalem
for
the
name
of
the
Lord
Jesus."
21:14 And
since
he
would
not
be
persuaded,
we
ceased
and
said,
"Let
the
will
of
the
Lord
be
done."
21:15 After
these
days
we
got
ready
and
went
up
to
Jerusalem.
21:16 And
some
of
the
disciples
from
Caesarea
went
with
us,
bringing
us
to
the
house
of
Mnason
of
Cyprus,
an
early
disciple,
with
whom
we
should
lodge.
21:17 When
we
had
come
to
Jerusalem,
the
brothers
received
us
gladly.
21:18 On
the
following
day
Paul
went
in
with
us
to
James,
and
all
the
elders
were
present.
21:19 After
greeting
them,
he
related
one
by
one
the
things
that
God
had
done
among
the
Gentiles
through
his
ministry.
21:20 And
when
they
heard
it,
they
glorified
God.
And
they
said
to
him,
"You
see,
brother,
how
many
thousands
there
are
among
the
Jews
of
those
who
have
believed.
They
are
all
zealous
for
the
law,
21:21 and
they
have
been
told
about
you
that
you
teach
all
the
Jews
who
are
among
the
Gentiles
to
forsake
Moses,
telling
them
not
to
circumcise
their
children
or
walk
according
to
our
customs.
21:22 What
then
is
to
be
done
They
will
certainly
hear
that
you
have
come.
21:23 Do
therefore
what
we
tell
you.
We
have
four
men
who
are
under
a
vow;
21:24 take
these
men
and
purify
yourself
along
with
them
and
pay
their
expenses,
so
that
they
may
shave
their
heads.
Thus
all
will
know
that
there
is
nothing
in
what
they
have
been
told
about
you,
but
that
you
yourself
also
live
in
observance
of
the
law.
21:25 But
as
for
the
Gentiles
who
have
believed,
we
have
sent
a
letter
with
our
judgment
that
they
should
abstain
from
what
has
been
sacrificed
to
idols,
and
from
blood,
and
from
what
has
been
strangled,
and
from
sexual
immorality."
21:26 Then
Paul
took
the
men,
and
the
next
day
he
purified
himself
along
with
them
and
went
into
the
temple,
giving
notice
when
the
days
of
purification
would
be
fulfilled
and
the
offering
presented
for
each
one
of
them.
21:27 When
the
seven
days
were
almost
completed,
the
Jews
from
Asia,
seeing
him
in
the
temple,
stirred
up
the
whole
crowd
and
laid
hands
on
him,
21:28 crying
out,
"Men
of
Israel,
help!
This
is
the
man
who
is
teaching
everyone
everywhere
against
the
people
and
the
law
and
this
place.
Moreover,
he
even
brought
Greeks
into
the
temple
and
has
defiled
this
holy
place."
21:29 For
they
had
previously
seen
Trophimus
the
Ephesian
with
him
in
the
city,
and
they
supposed
that
Paul
had
brought
him
into
the
temple.
21:30 Then
all
the
city
was
stirred
up,
and
the
people
ran
together.
They
seized
Paul
and
dragged
him
out
of
the
temple,
and
at
once
the
gates
were
shut.
21:31 And
as
they
were
seeking
to
kill
him,
word
came
to
the
tribune
of
the
cohort
that
all
Jerusalem
was
in
confusion.
21:32 He
at
once
took
soldiers
and
centurions
and
ran
down
to
them.
And
when
they
saw
the
tribune
and
the
soldiers,
they
stopped
beating
Paul.
21:33 Then
the
tribune
came
up
and
arrested
him
and
ordered
him
to
be
bound
with
two
chains.
He
inquired
who
he
was
and
what
he
had
done.
21:34 Some
in
the
crowd
were
shouting
one
thing,
some
another.
And
as
he
could
not
learn
the
facts
because
of
the
uproar,
he
ordered
him
to
be
brought
into
the
barracks.
21:35 And
when
he
came
to
the
steps,
he
was
actually
carried
by
the
soldiers
because
of
the
violence
of
the
crowd,
21:36 for
the
mob
of
the
people
followed,
crying
out,
"Away
with
him!"
21:37 As
Paul
was
about
to
be
brought
into
the
barracks,
he
said
to
the
tribune,
"May
I
say
something
to
you"
And
he
said,
"Do
you
know
Greek
21:38 Are
you
not
the
Egyptian,
then,
who
recently
stirred
up
a
revolt
and
led
the
four
thousand
men
of
the
Assassins
out
into
the
wilderness"
21:39 Paul
replied,
"I
am
a
Jew,
from
Tarsus
in
Cilicia,
a
citizen
of
no
obscure
city.
I
beg
you,
permit
me
to
speak
to
the
people."
21:40 And
when
he
had
given
him
permission,
Paul,
standing
on
the
steps,
motioned
with
his
hand
to
the
people.
And
when
there
was
a
great
hush,
he
addressed
them
in
the
Hebrew
language,
saying:
