1And it came to pass, that after we were gotten from them, and had launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos [a public prison], and the [day] following unto Rhodes [rosy], and from there unto Patara [scattering, cursing]: 2And finding a ship sailing over unto Phoenicia [land of palm trees], we went aboard, and set forth. 3Now when we had discovered Cyprus [love: a blossom], we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Aram [exalted] (Syria [etymology is uncertain]) [exalted], and landed at Tzor [a rock]: for there the ship was to unlade her burden. 4And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Sha’ul [desired] through the Spirit [Ruach], that he should not go up to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. 5And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till [we were] out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed. 6And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again.

7And when we had finished [our] course from Tzor [a rock], we came to Ptolemais [warlike], and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day. 8And the next [day] we that were of Sha’ul [desired]'s company departed, and came unto Caesarea [severed]: and we entered into the house of Philip [friend of horses] the evangelist, which was [one] of the seven; and abode with him. 9And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy. 10And as we tarried [there] many days, there came down from Y’hudah [praised] a certain prophet, named Agav [locust]. 11And when he was come unto us, he took Sha’ul [desired]'s belt, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus says the Holy Spirit [Ruach HaKodesh], So shall the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] at Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] bind the man that owns this belt, and shall deliver [him] into the hands of the Goyim [Gentiles]. 12And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. 13Then Sha’ul [desired] answered, What mean you^2f to weep and to break my heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] for the name of the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation]. 14And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord - Kurios be done.

15And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. 16 There went with us also [certain] of the disciples of Caesarea [severed], and brought with them one Mnason [remembering] of Cyprus [love: a blossom], an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.

17And when we were come to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], the brethren received us gladly. 18And the [day] following Sha’ul [desired] went in with us unto Ya’akov [heal-grabber]; and all the elders were present. 19And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God-The Father had wrought among the Goyim [Gentiles] by his ministry. 20And when they heard [it], they glorified the Lord - Kurios, and said unto him, youⁱ see, brother, how many thousands of Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law: 21And they are informed of youⁱ, that youⁱ teach all the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] which are among the Goyim [Gentiles] to forsake Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters], saying that they ought not to circumcise [their] children, neither to walk after the customs. 22What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that youⁱ are come. 23Do therefore this that we say to youⁱ: We have four men which have a vow on them; 24Them take, and purify yourself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave [their] heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning youⁱ, are nothing; but [that] youⁱ yourself also walk orderly, and keeps the law. 25As touching the Goyim [Gentiles] which believe, we have written [and] concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from [things] offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication. 26Then Sha’ul [desired] took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.

27And when the seven days were almost ended, the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] which were of Asia [orient], when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him, 28Crying out, Men of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heal Of God], help: This is the man, that teaches all [men] every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks [unstable: miry ones] also into the temple, and has polluted this holy place. 29(For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus [nutritious] an Ephesian [permitted], whom they supposed that Sha’ul [desired] had brought into the temple.) 30And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Sha’ul [desired], and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut. 31And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] was in an uproar. 32Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating of Sha’ul [desired]. 33Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done. 34And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle. 35And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the people. 36For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him.

37And as Sha’ul [desired] was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto youⁱ? Who said, Can youⁱ speak Greek [unstable: the miry one]? 38Are not youⁱ that Mitzri [Egyptian], which before these days made an uproar, and led out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers? 39But Sha’ul [desired] said, I am a man [which am] a Jewish person of Tarsus [a flat basket], [a city] in Cilicia [the land which rolls], a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech (to call upon; appeal; beg) youⁱ, suffer (allow, to let, permit) me to speak unto the people. 40And when he had given him license, Sha’ul [desired] stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spoke unto [them] in the ‘Evri’ot [Hebrew] tongue, saying,
