1 # And <1161> it came to pass <1096> (5633), that after <5613> we <2248> were gotten <645> (5685) from <575> them <846>, and had launched <321> (5683), we came <2064> (5627) with a straight course <2113> (5660) unto <1519> Coos <2972>, and <1161> the day following <1836> unto <1519> Rhodes <4499>, and from thence <2547> unto <1519> Patara <3959>:
2 And <2532> finding <2147> (5631) a ship <4143> sailing over <1276> (5723) unto <1519> Phenicia <5403>, we went aboard <1910> (5631), and set forth <321> (5681).
3 Now <1161> when we had discovered <398> (5631) Cyprus <2954>, <2532> we left <2641> (5631) it <846> on the left hand <2176>, and sailed <4126> (5707) into <1519> Syria <4947>, and <2532> landed <2609> (5648) at <1519> Tyre <5184>: for <1063> there <1566> the ship <4143> was <2258> (5713) to unlade <670> (5740) her burden <1117>.
4 And <2532> finding <429> (5631) disciples <3101>, we tarried <1961> (5656) there <847> seven <2033> days <2250>: who <3748> said <3004> (5707) to Paul <3972> through <1223> the Spirit <4151> , that he should <305> <0> not <3361> go up <305> (5721) to <1519> Jerusalem <2419>.
5 And <1161> when <3753> we <2248> had <1096> (5633) accomplished <1822> (5658) those days <2250>, we departed <1831> (5631) and went our way <4198> (5711); and they all <3956> brought <4311> <0> us <2248> on our way <4311> (5723), with <4862> wives <1135> and <2532> children <5043>, till <2193> we were out of <1854> the city <4172>: and <2532> we kneeled down <5087> (5631) <1119> on <1909> the shore <123>, and prayed <4336> (5662).
6 And <2532> when we had taken our leave <782> (5666) one of another <240>, we took <1910> (5627) <1519> ship <4143>; and <1161> they <1565> returned <5290> <0> <1519> home <2398> again <5290> (5656).
7 And <1161> when we <2249> had finished <1274> (5660) our course <4144> from <575> Tyre <5184>, we came <2658> (5656) to <1519> Ptolemais <4424>, and <2532> saluted <782> (5666) the brethren <80>, and abode <3306> (5656) with <3844> them <846> one <3391> day <2250>.
8 # And <1161> the next <1887> day we that were of <4012> <0> Paul's <3972> company <4012> departed <1831> (5631), and came <2064> (5627) (5625) <2064> (5627) unto <1519> Caesarea <2542> : and <2532> we entered <1525> (5631) into <1519> the house <3624> of Philip <5376> the evangelist <2099>, which was <5607> (5752) one of <1537> the seven <2033>; and abode <3306> (5656) with <3844> him <846> .
9 And <1161> the same man <5129> had <2258> (5713) four <5064> daughters <2364>, virgins <3933> , which did prophesy <4395> (5723).
10 And <1161> as we <2257> tarried <1961> (5723) there many <4119> days <2250>, there came down <2718> (5627) from <575> Judaea <2449> a certain <5100> prophet <4396>, named <3686> Agabus <13>.
11 And <2532> when he was come <2064> (5631) unto <4314> us <2248>, <2532> he took <142> (5660) Paul's <3972> girdle <2223>, and <5037> bound <1210> (5660) his own <846> hands <5495> and <2532> feet <4228>, and said <2036> (5627), Thus <3592> saith <3004> (5719) the Holy <40> Ghost <4151> , So <3779> shall <1210> <0> the Jews <2453> at <1722> Jerusalem <2419> bind <1210> (5692) the man <435> that <3739> owneth <2076> (5748) this <3778> girdle <2223>, and <2532> shall deliver <3860> (5692) him into <1519> the hands <5495> of the Gentiles <1484>.
12 And <1161> when <5613> we heard <191> (5656) these things <5023>, both <5037> we <2249> , and <2532> they of that place <1786>, besought <3870> (5707) him <846> not <3361> to go up <305> (5721) to <1519> Jerusalem <2419>.
13 Then <1161> Paul <3972> answered <611> (5662), What <5101> mean ye <4160> (5719) to weep <2799> (5723) and <2532> to break <4919> (5723) mine <3450> heart <2588>? for <1063> I <1473> am <2192> (5719) ready <2093> not <3756> to be bound <1210> (5683) only <3440>, but <2532> also <235> to die <599> (5629) at <1519> Jerusalem <2419> for <5228> the name <3686> of the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424>.
14 And <1161> when he <846> would <3982> <0> not <3361> be persuaded <3982> (5746), we ceased <2270> (5656), saying <2036> (5631), The will <2307> of the Lord <2962> be done <1096> (5634).
15 # And <1161> after <3326> those <5025> days <2250> we took up our carriages <643> (5666), and went up <305> (5707) to <1519> Jerusalem <2419>.
16 <1161> There went <4905> (5627) with <4862> us <2254> also <2532> certain of the disciples <3101> of <575> Caesarea <2542>, and brought <71> (5723) with them <3844> one <5100> Mnason <3416> of Cyprus <2953>, an old <744> disciple <3101>, with whom <3739> we should lodge <3579> (5686).
17 And <1161> when we <2257> were come <1096> (5637) to <1519> Jerusalem <2414>, the brethren <80> received <1209> (5662) us <2248> gladly <780>.
18 And <1161> the day following <1966> (5752) Paul <3972> went in <1524> (5715) with <4862> us <2254> unto <4314> James <2385>; and <5037> all <3956> the elders <4245> were present <3854> (5633).
19 And <2532> when he had saluted <782> (5666) them <846>, he declared <1834> (5711) particularly <2596> <1520> <1538> what things <3739> God <2316> had wrought <4160> (5656) among <1722> the Gentiles <1484> by <1223> his <846> ministry <1248>.
20 And <1161> when they heard <191> (5660) it, they glorified <1392> (5707) the Lord <2962> , and <5037> said <2036> (5627) unto him <846>, Thou seest <2334> (5719), brother <80>, how many <4214> thousands <3461> of Jews <2453> there are <1526> (5748) which <3588> believe <4100> (5761); and <2532> they are <5225> (5719) all <3956> zealous <2207> of the law <3551>:
21 And <1161> they are informed <2727> (5681) of <4012> thee <4675>, that <3754> thou teachest <1321> (5719) all <3956> the Jews <2453> which are among <2596> the Gentiles <1484> to <575> forsake <646> Moses <3475>, saying <3004> (5723) that they <846> ought <4059> <0> not <3361> to circumcise <4059> (5721) their children <5043>, neither <3366> to walk <4043> (5721) after the customs <1485>.
22 What <5101> is it <2076> (5748) therefore <3767>? the multitude <4128> must <1163> (5748) needs <3843> come together <4905> (5629): for <1063> they will hear <191> (5695) that <3754> thou art come <2064> (5754).
23 Do <4160> (5657) therefore <3767> this <5124> that <3739> we say <3004> (5719) to thee <4671>: We <2254> have <1526> (5748) four <5064> men <435> which have <2171> (5723) a vow <2192> on <1909> them <1438>;
24 Them <5128> take <3880> (5631), and purify thyself <48> (5682) with <4862> them <846> , and <2532> be at charges <1159> (5657) with <1909> them <846>, that <2443> they may shave <3587> (5667) their heads <2776>: and <2532> all <3956> may know <1097> (5632) that those things <3754>, whereof <3739> they were informed <2727> (5769) concerning <4012> thee <4675>, are <2076> (5748) nothing <3762>; but <235> that thou thyself <846> also <2532> walkest orderly <4748> (5719), and keepest <5442> (5723) the law <3551>.
25 As <1161> touching <4012> the Gentiles <1484> which believe <4100> (5761), we <2249> have written <1989> (5656) and concluded <2919> (5660) that they <846> observe <5083> (5721) no <3367> such thing <5108>, save only <1508> that they keep <5442> (5733) themselves <846> from <5037> things offered to idols <1494>, and <2532> from blood <129>, and <2532> from strangled <4156>, and <2532> from fornication <4202>.
26 Then <5119> Paul <3972> took <3880> (5631) the men <435>, and the next <2192> (5746) day <2250> purifying himself <48> (5685) with <4862> them <846> entered <1524> (5715) into <1519> the temple <2411>, to signify <1229> (5723) the accomplishment <1604> of the days <2250> of purification <49>, until <2193> that <3739> an offering <4376> should be offered <4374> (5681) for <5228> every <1538> one <1520> of them <846>.
27 # And <1161> when <5613> the seven <2033> days <2250> were almost <3195> (5707) ended <4931> (5745), the Jews <2453> which were of <575> Asia <773>, when they saw <2300> (5666) him <846> in <1722> the temple <2411>, stirred up <4797> (5707) all <3956> the people <3793>, and <2532> laid <1911> (5627) hands <5495> on <1909> him <846>,
28 Crying out <2896> (5723), Men <435> of Israel <2475>, help <997> (5720): This <3778> is <2076> (5748) the man <444>, that teacheth <1321> (5723) all <3956> men every where <3837> against <2596> the people <2992>, and <2532> the law <3551>, and <2532> this <5126> place <5117>: and <5037> further <2089> brought <1521> (5627) Greeks <1672> also <2532> into <1519> the temple <2411>, and <2532> hath polluted <2840> (5758) this <5127> holy <40> place <5117>.
29 (For <1063> they had <2258> (5713) seen before <4308> (5761) with <4862> him <846> in <1722> the city <4172> Trophimus <5161> an Ephesian <2180>, whom <3739> they supposed <3543> (5707) that <3754> Paul <3972> had brought <1521> (5627) into <1519> the temple <2411>.)
30 And <5037> all <3650> the city <4172> was moved <2795> (5681), and <2532> the people <2992> ran together <1096> (5633) <4890>: and <2532> they took <1949> (5637) Paul <3972>, and drew <1670> (5707) him <846> out of <1854> the temple <2411>: and <2532> forthwith <2112> the doors <2374> were shut <2808> (5681).
31 And <1161> as they went about <2212> (5723) to kill <615> (5658) him <846>, tidings <5334> came <305> (5627) unto the chief captain <5506> of the band <4686>, that <3754> all <3650> Jerusalem <2419> was in an uproar <4797> (5769).
32 Who <3739> immediately <1824> took <3880> (5631) soldiers <4757> and <2532> centurions <1543> , and ran down <2701> (5627) unto <1909> them <846>: and <1161> when they saw <1492> (5631) the chief captain <5506> and <2532> the soldiers <4757>, they left <3973> (5668) beating <5180> (5723) of Paul <3972> .
33 Then <5119> the chief captain <5506> came near <1448> (5660), and took <1949> (5633) him <846> , and <2532> commanded <2753> (5656) him to be bound with <1210> (5683) two <1417> chains <254>; and <2532> demanded <4441> (5711) who <5101> he was <302> <1498> (5751), and <2532> what <5101> he had <2076> (5748) done <4160> (5761).
34 And <1161> some <243> cried <994> (5707) one thing <5100>, some another <243>, among <1722> the multitude <3793>: and <1161> when he could <1410> (5740) not <3361> know <1097> (5629) the certainty <804> for <1223> the tumult <2351>, he commanded <2753> (5656) him <846> to be carried <71> (5745) into <1519> the castle <3925>.
35 And <1161> when <3753> he came <1096> (5633) upon <1909> the stairs <304>, so it was <4819> (5627), that he was borne <941> (5745) of <5259> the soldiers <4757> for <1223> the violence <970> of the people <3793>.
36 For <1063> the multitude <4128> of the people <2992> followed after <190> (5707), crying <2896> (5723), Away <142> (5720) with him <846>.
37 And <5037> as Paul <3972> was to be <3195> (5723) led <1521> (5745) into <1519> the castle <3925>, he said <3004> (5719) unto the chief captain <5506>, May <1487> <1832> (5748) I <3427> speak <2036> (5629) <5100> unto <4314> thee <4571>? <1161> Who <3588> said <5346> (5713), Canst thou speak <1097> (5719) Greek <1676>?
38 Art <1488> (5748) not <3756> thou <4771> <686> that Egyptian <124>, which before <4253> these <5130> days <2250> madest an uproar <387> (5660), and <2532> leddest out <1806> (5631) into <1519> the wilderness <2048> four thousand <5070> men <435> that were murderers <4607>?
39 But <1161> Paul <3972> said <2036> (5627), I <1473> am <1510> (5748) <3303> a man <444> which am a Jew <2453> of Tarsus <5018>, a city in Cilicia <2791>, a citizen <4177> of no <3756> mean <767> city <4172>: and <1161>, I beseech <1189> (5736) thee <4675>, suffer <2010> (5657) me <3427> to speak <2980> (5658) unto <4314> the people <2992>.
40 And <1161> when he had given <2010> <0> him <846> licence <2010> (5660), Paul <3972> stood <2476> (5761) on <1909> the stairs <304>, and beckoned <2678> (5656) with the hand <5495> unto the people <2992>. And <1161> when there was made <1096> (5637) a great <4183> silence <4602>, he spake <4377> (5656) unto them in the Hebrew <1446> tongue <1258>, saying <3004> (5723),
