¹⁰ And when he had seen ^(A)the vision, immediately ^(B)we sought to ^[a]go into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to ^(C)proclaim the gospel to them.

Paul Sets Out for Jerusalem

21 Now when ^(A)we had parted from them and had set sail, we came by ^(B)a straight course to Cos and the next day to Rhodes and from there to Patara; ² and having found a ship crossing over to ^(C)Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail. ³ And when we came in sight of ^(D)Cyprus, leaving it on the left, we kept sailing to ^(E)Syria and landed at ^(F)Tyre; for there the ship was to unload its cargo. ⁴ And after looking up ^(G)the disciples, we stayed there seven days; and they kept telling Paul ^(H)through the Spirit not to set foot in Jerusalem. ⁵ And when ^[a]our days there were ended, we left and started on our journey, while they all, with wives and children, ^(I)escorted us until we were out of the city. After ^(J)kneeling down on the beach and praying, we said farewell to one another. ⁶ Then we went on board the ship, and they returned ^(K)home again.

⁷ And when we had finished the voyage from ^(L)Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and after greeting ^(M)the brothers, we stayed with them for a day. ⁸ And on the next day we left and came to ^(N)Caesarea, and entering the house of ^(O)Philip the ^(P)evangelist, who was ^(Q)one of the seven, we stayed with him. ⁹ Now this man had four virgin daughters who ^(R)prophesied. ¹⁰ And as we were staying there for some days, a prophet named ^(S)Agabus came down from Judea. ¹¹ And coming to us, he ^(T)took Paul’s belt and bound his own feet and hands, and said, “This ^(U)is what the Holy Spirit says: ‘In this way the Jews at Jerusalem will ^(V)bind the man who owns this belt and ^(W)deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’” ¹² And when we had heard this, we as well as the local residents began begging him ^(X)not to go up to Jerusalem. ¹³ Then Paul answered, “What are you doing, crying and breaking my heart? For ^(Y)I am ready not only to be bound, but even to die at Jerusalem for ^(Z)the name of the Lord Jesus.” ¹⁴ And since he would not be persuaded, we fell silent, saying, “^(AA)The will of the Lord be done!”

¹⁵ Now after these days we got ready and ^(AB)started on our way up to Jerusalem. ¹⁶ And some of ^(AC)the disciples from ^(AD)Caesarea also came with us, taking us to Mnason of ^(AE)Cyprus, an ^(AF)early disciple with whom we were to lodge.

In Jerusalem

¹⁷ And after we arrived in Jerusalem, ^(AG)the brothers welcomed us gladly. ¹⁸ And the following day Paul went in with us to ^(AH)James, and all ^(AI)the elders were present.
