44:021:006 And when we had taken our leave one of
another, we took ship;
and
they returned home again.
44:021:007 And when we had finished our course from
Tyre, we came to
Ptolemais,
and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one
day.
44:021:008 And the next day we that were of Paul’s
company departed, and
came
unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of
Philip
the
evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with
him.
44:021:009 And the same man had four daughters, virgins,
which did
prophesy.
44:021:010 And as we tarried there many days, there
came down from Judaea
a
certain prophet, named Agabus.
44:021:011 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 Ghost,
So
shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth
this
girdle,
and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.
44:021:012 And when we heard these things, both we,
and they of that
place,
besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.
44:021:013 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep
and to break mine
heart?
for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die
at
Jerusalem
for the name of the Lord Jesus.
44:021:014 And when he would not be persuaded, we
ceased, saying, The
will
of the Lord be done.
44:021:015 And after those days we took up our carriages,
and went up to
Jerusalem.
44:021:016 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.
44:021:017 And when we were come to Jerusalem, the
brethren received us
gladly.
44:021:018 And the day following Paul went in with
us unto James; and all
the
elders were present.
44:021:019 And when he had saluted them, he declared
particularly what
things
God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.
44:021:020 And when they heard it, they glorified
the Lord, and said unto
him,
Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there
are
which
believe; and they are all zealous of the law:
44:021:021 And they are informed of thee, that thou
teachest all the Jews
which
are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that
they
ought not to circumcise their children, neither to
walk
after
the customs.
44:021:022 What is it therefore? the multitude must
needs come together:
for
they will hear that thou art come.
44:021:023 Do therefore this that we say to thee:
We have four men which
have
a vow on them;
