Acts 21:1-29

1AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that afterG5613 weG2248 were separatedG645 fromG575 themG846, and had launchedG321, we cameG2064 with a straight courseG2113 toG1519 CoosG2972, andG1161 the day followingG1836 toG1519 RhodesG4499, and from thereG2547 toG1519 PataraG3959: 2AndG2532 findingG2147 a shipG4143 sailing overG1276 toG1519 PheniciaG5403, we went aboardG1910, and set forthG321. 3NowG1161 when we had come in sight ofG398 CyprusG2954, we leftG2641 itG846 on the left handG2176, and sailedG4126 intoG1519 SyriaG4947, andG2532 landedG2609 atG1519 TyreG5184: forG1063 thereG1566 the shipG4143 wasG2258 to unloadG670 her cargoG1117. 4AndG2532 findingG429 disciplesG3101, we tarriedG1961 thereG847 sevenG2033 daysG2250: whoG3748 saidG3004 to PaulG3972 throughG1223 the SpiritG4151, that he shouldG305 notG3361 go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419. 5AndG1161 whenG3753 weG2248 hadG1096 come to the end ofG1822 those daysG2250, we departedG1831 and went on our wayG4198; and they allG3956 accompaniedG4311 usG2248 on our wayG4311, withG4862 wivesG1135 andG2532 childrenG5043, tillG2193 we were out ofG1854 the cityG4172: andG2532 we kneeled downG5087G1119 onG1909 the shoreG123, and prayedG4336. 6AndG2532 when we had taken our leaveG782 one of anotherG240, we tookG1910G1519 shipG4143; andG1161 theyG1565 returnedG5290G1519 homeG2398 againG5290. 7AndG1161 when weG2249 had finishedG1274 our courseG4144 fromG575 TyreG5184, we cameG2658 toG1519 PtolemaisG4424, andG2532 greetedG782 the brethrenG80, and abodeG3306 withG3844 themG846 oneG3391 dayG2250.

8AndG1161 the nextG1887 day we that were ofG4012 Paul’sG3972 companyG4012 departedG1831, and cameG2064 toG1519 CaesareaG2542: andG2532 we enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3624 of PhilipG5376 the evangelistG2099, who wasG5607 one ofG1537 the sevenG2033; and abodeG3306 withG3844 himG846. 9AndG1161 the same manG5129 hadG2258 fourG5064 daughtersG2364, virginsG3933, who prophesiedG4395. 10AndG1161 as weG2257 tarriedG1961 there manyG4119 daysG2250, there came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 a certainG5100 prophetG4396, namedG3686 AgabusG13. 11AndG2532 when he had comeG2064 toG4314 usG2248, he tookG142 Paul’sG3972 beltG2223, andG5037 boundG1210 his ownG846 handsG5495 andG2532 feetG4228, and saidG2036, ThusG3592 saithG3004 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, SoG3779 shallG1210 the JewsG2453 atG1722 JerusalemG2419 bindG1210 the manG435 thatG3739 ownethG2076 thisG3778 beltG2223, andG2532 shall deliverG3860 him intoG1519 the handsG5495 of the GentilesG1484. 12AndG1161 whenG5613 we heardG191 these thingsG5023, bothG5037 weG2249, andG2532 they of that placeG1786, besoughtG3870 himG846 notG3361 to go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419. 13ThenG1161 PaulG3972 answeredG611, WhatG5101 mean yeG4160 to weepG2799 andG2532 to breakG4919 myG3450 heartG2588? forG1063 IG1473 amG2192 readyG2093 notG3756 to be boundG1210 onlyG3440, butG2532 alsoG235 to dieG599 atG1519 JerusalemG2419 forG5228 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424. 14AndG1161 when heG846 wouldG3982 notG3361 be persuadedG3982, we ceasedG2270, sayingG2036, The willG2307 of the LordG2962 be doneG1096.

15AndG1161 afterG3326 thoseG5025 daysG2250 we got readyG643, and went upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419. 16There wentG4905 withG4862 usG2254 alsoG2532 certain of the disciplesG3101 ofG575 CaesareaG2542, and broughtG71 with themG3844 oneG5100 MnasonG3416 of CyprusG2953, an earlyG744 discipleG3101, with whomG3739 we should lodgeG3579. 17AndG1161 when weG2257 had comeG1096 toG1519 JerusalemG2414, the brethrenG80 receivedG1209 usG2248 gladlyG780. 18AndG1161 the day followingG1966 PaulG3972 went inG1524 withG4862 usG2254 toG4314 JamesG2385; andG5037 allG3956 the eldersG4245 were presentG3854. 19AndG2532 when he had greetedG782 themG846, he declaredG1834 particularlyG2596G1520G1538 what thingsG3739 GodG2316 had wroughtG4160 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 byG1223 hisG846 ministryG1248. 20AndG1161 when they heardG191 it, they glorifiedG1392 the LordG2962, andG5037 saidG2036 to himG846, Thou seestG2334, brotherG80, how manyG4214 thousandsG3461 of JewsG2453 there areG1526 whoG3588 believeG4100; andG2532 they areG5225 allG3956 zealousG2207 of the lawG3551: 21AndG1161 they are informedG2727 concerningG4012 theeG4675, thatG3754 thou teachestG1321 allG3956 the JewsG2453 who are amongG2596 the GentilesG1484 toG575 forsakeG646 MosesG3475, sayingG3004 that theyG846 oughtG4059 notG3361 to circumciseG4059 their childrenG5043, neitherG3366 to walkG4043 after the customsG1485. 22WhatG5101 is itG2076 thereforeG3767? the multitudeG4128 mustG1163 needsG3843 come togetherG4905: forG1063 they will hearG191 thatG3754 thou art comeG2064. 23DoG4160 thereforeG3767 thisG5124 thatG3739 we sayG3004 to theeG4671: WeG2254 haveG1526 fourG5064 menG435 who haveG2171 a vowG2192 onG1909 themG1438; 24TakeG3880 themG5128 and purify thyselfG48 withG4862 themG846, andG2532 payG1159 theirG1909G846 expensesG1159 thatG2443 they may shaveG3587 their headsG2776: andG2532 allG3956 may knowG1097 that those thingsG3754, of whichG3739 they were informedG2727 concerningG4012 theeG4675, areG2076 nothingG3762; butG235 that thou thyselfG846 alsoG2532 walkest orderlyG4748, and keepestG5442 the lawG3551. 25AsG1161 concerningG4012 the GentilesG1484 who believeG4100, weG2249 have writtenG1989 and concludedG2919 that theyG846 observeG5083 noG3367 such thingG5108, exceptG1508 that they keepG5442 themselvesG846 fromG5037 things offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from strangledG4156, andG2532 from immoralityG4202. 26ThenG5119 PaulG3972 tookG3880 the menG435, and the nextG2192 dayG2250 purifying himselfG48 withG4862 themG846 enteredG1524 intoG1519 the templeG2411, to signifyG1229 the accomplishmentG1604 of the daysG2250 of purificationG49, untilG2193G3739 an offeringG4376 should be offeredG4374 forG5228 everyG1538 oneG1520 of themG846.

27AndG1161 whenG5613 the sevenG2033 daysG2250 were almostG3195 endedG4931, the JewsG2453 who were fromG575 AsiaG773, when they sawG2300 himG846 inG1722 the templeG2411, stirred upG4797 allG3956 the peopleG3793, andG2532 laidG1911 handsG5495 onG1909 himG846, 28Crying outG2896, MenG435 of IsraelG2475, helpG997: ThisG3778 isG2076 the manG444, that teachethG1321 allG3956 men every whereG3837 againstG2596 the peopleG2992, andG2532 the lawG3551, andG2532 thisG5126 placeG5117: andG5037 furtherG2089 hath broughtG1521 GreeksG1672 alsoG2532 intoG1519 the templeG2411, andG2532 hath pollutedG2840 thisG5127 holyG40 placeG5117. 29ForG1063 they hadG2258 seen beforeG4308 withG4862 himG846 inG1722 the cityG4172 TrophimusG5161 an EphesianG2180, whomG3739 they supposedG3543 thatG3754 PaulG3972 had broughtG1521 intoG1519 the templeG2411.)
