Acts 20:1-6

Paul in Macedonia and Greece

1 After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and ¹departed for Macedonia.

2 When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece.

3 There he spent three months, and when ²a plot was made against him by the Jews^[a] as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia.

4 Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, ³Aristarchus and Secundus; and ⁴Gaius of Derbe, and ⁵Timothy; and the Asians, ⁶Tychicus and ⁷Trophimus.

5 These went on ahead and were waiting for ⁸us at ⁹Troas,

6 but we sailed away from Philippi after ¹⁰the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days.
