6
And when we had taken our leave one of another, we embarked
on the ship, and they returned home again.
7
And when we had finished
our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais and saluted the brethren and abode with them one day.
8
And the next
day Paul and those of us that were with him departed and came unto Caesarea; and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was
one of the seven, and abode with him.
9
And he had four daughters, virgins, who prophesied.
10
And as we tarried
there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.
11
And when he was come unto us, he took Paul’s girdle and bound his own hands and feet and said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owns this girdle and shall deliver
him into the hands of the Gentiles.
12
And when we heard these things, both we and those of that place besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.
13
Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14
And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, Let the will of the Lord be done.
15
And after those days we packed our baggage and went up to Jerusalem.
16
There went with us also
certain of the disciples of Caesarea and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
