Acts 21:1-16

1AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that afterG5613 weG1473 were gottenG645 fromG575 themG846, and had launchedG321, we cameG2064 with a straight courseG2113 untoG1519 CoosG3588G2972, andG1161 theG1836 day followingG1836 untoG1519 RhodesG3588G4499, and from thenceG2547 untoG1519 PataraG3959:

2AndG2532 findingG2147 a shipG4143 sailing overG1276 untoG1519 PheniciaG5403, we went aboardG1910, and set forthG321.

3NowG1161 when we had discoveredG398 CyprusG3588G2954, weG2532 leftG2641 itG846 on the left handG2176, and sailedG4126 intoG1519 SyriaG4947, andG2532 landedG2609 atG1519 TyreG5184: forG1063 thereG1566 the shipG3588G4143 wasG1510 to unladeG670 her burdenG3588G1117.

4AndG2532 findingG429 disciplesG3588G3101, we tarriedG1961 thereG847 sevenG2033 daysG2250: whoG3748 saidG3004 to PaulG3588G3972 throughG1223 the SpiritG3588G4151, that he shouldG305 notG3361 go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419.

5AndG1161 whenG3753 weG1473 hadG1096 accomplishedG1822 those daysG3588G2250, we departedG1831 and went our wayG4198; and they allG3956 broughtG4311 usG1473 on our wayG4311, withG4862 wivesG1135 andG2532 childrenG5043, tillG2193 we were out ofG1854 the cityG3588G4172: andG2532 we kneeledG5087 downG3588G1119 onG1909 the shoreG3588G123, and prayedG4336.

6AndG2532 when we had taken our leaveG782 one of anotherG240, we tookG1910 shipG3588G4143; andG1161 theyG1565 returnedG5290 home againG2398.

7AndG1161 when weG1473 had finishedG1274 our courseG3588G4144 fromG575 TyreG5184, we cameG2658 toG1519 PtolemaisG4424, andG2532 salutedG782 the brethrenG3588G80, and abodeG3306 withG3844 themG846 oneG1520 dayG2250.

8AndG1161 the nextG3588G1887 day we that wereG3588 ofG4012 Paul’s companyG3588G3972 departedG1831, and cameG2064 untoG1519 CæsareaG2542: andG2532 we enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3588G3624 of PhilipG5376 the evangelistG3588G2099, which wasG3588G1510 one ofG1537 the sevenG3588G2033; and abodeG3306 withG3844 himG846.

9AndG1161 the same manG3778 hadG1510 fourG5064 daughtersG2364, virginsG3933, which did prophesyG4395.

10AndG1161 as weG1473 tarriedG1961 there manyG4119 daysG2250, there came downG2718 fromG575 JudæaG3588G2449 a certainG5100 prophetG4396, namedG3686 AgabusG13.

11AndG2532 when he was comeG2064 untoG4314 usG1473, he tookG142 Paul’sG3588G3972 girdleG3588G2223, andG5037 boundG1210 his ownG846 handsG3588G5495 andG2532 feetG3588G4228, and saidG3004, ThusG3592 saithG3004 the HolyG40 GhostG3588G4151, SoG3779 shallG1210 the JewsG2453 atG1722 JerusalemG2419 bindG1210 the manG3588G435 thatG3739 ownethG1510 thisG3778 girdleG3588G2223, andG2532 shall deliverG3860 him intoG1519 the handsG5495 of the GentilesG1484.

12AndG1161 whenG5613 we heardG191 these thingsG3778, bothG5037 weG1473, andG2532 theyG3588 of that placeG1786, besoughtG3870 himG846 notG3361 toG1519 go upG305 to JerusalemG2419.

13ThenG1161 PaulG3588G3972 answeredG611, WhatG5101 mean yeG4160 to weepG2799 andG2532 to breakG4919 mineG1473 heartG3588G2588? forG1063 IG1473 amG2192 readyG2093 notG3756 to be boundG1210 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 to dieG599 atG1519 JerusalemG2419 forG5228 the nameG3588G3686 of the LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424.

14And whenG1161 heG846 wouldG3982 notG3361 be persuadedG3982, we ceasedG2270, sayingG3004, The willG3588G2307 of the LordG3588G2962 be doneG1096.

15AndG1161 afterG3326 thoseG3778 daysG3588G2250 we took up our carriagesG643, and went upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419.

16ThereG1161 wentG4905 withG4862 usG1473 alsoG2532 certain of the disciplesG3588G3101 ofG575 CæsareaG2542, and brought with themG71 oneG5100 MnasonG3416 of CyprusG2953, an oldG744 discipleG3101, withG3844 whomG3739 we should lodgeG3579.
