021:005 When, however, our time was up, we left and went on our way,
all the disciples and their wives and children coming to see
us off. Then, after kneeling down on the beach and praying,
021:006 we took leave of one another; and we went on board, while they returned home.
021:007 As for us, our voyage was over when having sailed from Tyre
we reached Ptolemais. here we inquired after the welfare
of the brethren, and remained a day with them.
021:008 On the morrow we left Ptolemais and went on to Caesarea,
where we came to the house of Philip the Evangelist,
who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.
021:009 Now Philip had four unmarried daughters who were prophetesses;
021:010 and during our somewhat lengthy stay a Prophet of the name of Agabus came down from Judaea.
021:011 When he arrived he took Paul's loincloth, and bound his own feet and arms with it, and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, `So will the Jews in Jerusalem bind the owner of this loincloth, and will hand him over to the Gentiles.'"
021:012 As soon as we heard these words, both we and the brethren at Caesarea entreated Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
021:013 His reply was, "What can you mean by thus breaking my heart with your grief? Why, as for me, I am ready not only to go to Jerusalem and be put in chains, but even to die there for the sake of the Lord Jesus."
021:014 So when he was not to be dissuaded, we ceased remonstrating
with him and said, "The Lord's will be done!"
